Description
While trying all options to solve an issue mentioned in #3706, I tried JSqlParser. It created a count query closer to what it should be—it understands DISTINCT, at least. However, the enhancer created an invalid query.
Original query:
SELECT DISTINCT a.*, b.b1
FROM TableA a
JOIN TableB b ON ...
LEFT JOIN TableC ON ...
WHERE ...
ORDER BY b.b1, a.a1, a.a2
Derived count query:
SELECT count(DISTINCT *)
FROM TableA a
JOIN TableB b ON ...
LEFT JOIN TableC ON ...
WHERE ...
The enhancer complains that The query you provided is not a valid SQL Query
and that it Encountered unexpected token: "(" "(" at line 1, column 13.
The DB (Postgres) also fails this query because it should say SELECT count(DISTINCT a.*) FROM ...
.
