[jira] [Comment Edited] (DRILL-2361) Column aliases cannot include
dots
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-2361?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14362654#comment-14362654 ]

------------------------------------------------------------
[~dragoncurve] were you planning to update the patch or should I go ahead with committing the current one? I found the following queries generate the same error - the first one is for a sort operator, second with joins.
{code}
0: jdbc:drill:zk=local> select o_custkey as `x.y.z` from orders where o_orderkey < 5 order by `x.y.z`;
Query failed: UnsupportedOperationException: Field references must be singular names.
0: jdbc:drill:zk=local> select 1 from (select o_custkey as `x.y` from orders) o inner join customer c on o.`x.y` = c.c_custkey;
Query failed: UnsupportedOperationException: Field references must be singular names.
{code}
Like Jacques suggested, I can create a separate JIRA to track the issue in general.

> Key: DRILL-2361
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-2361
> Project: Apache Drill
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Query Planning & Optimization
> Affects Versions: 0.7.0, 0.8.0
> Reporter: Adam Gilmore
> Assignee: Aman Sinha
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: DRILL-2361.1.patch.txt

>
> The Drill query engine rejects column aliases for aggregates or group by fields where the alias includes a dot.
> For example:
> {code}select count(*) as `test.field` from cp.`employee.json`;{code}
> throws an error with "Field references must be singular names."
> Having reviewed the code, I can't quite see a reason for it, and when using FieldReference.getWithQuotedRef instead in AggPrelBase, the issue is alleviated with no visible side effects.
> I'm sure there was a reason for this code in FieldReference, but I can't seem to work out why, and it seems entirely reasonable to allow a dot in a column alias.
