Previously `DELETE FROM ...` only emitted deletes for main table, but
this is incorrect as we want to remove entries from index tables as
well.
Closes#1383
Apply affinities to a range of P2 registers starting with P1.
P4 is a string that is P2 characters long. The N-th character of the string indicates the column affinity that should be used for the N-th memory cell in the range.
If P4==0 then register P3 holds a blob constructed by MakeRecord. If P4>0 then register P3 is the first of P4 registers that form an unpacked record.
Cursor P1 is on an index btree. If the record identified by P3 and P4 is not the prefix of any entry in P1 then a jump is made to P2. If P1 does contain an entry whose prefix matches the P3/P4 record then control falls through to the next instruction and P1 is left pointing at the matching entry.
This operation leaves the cursor in a state where it cannot be advanced in either direction. In other words, the Next and Prev opcodes do not work after this operation.
"Open a new cursor P1 to a transient table. The cursor is always opened read/write even if the main database is read-only. The ephemeral table is deleted automatically when the cursor is closed.
If the cursor P1 is already opened on an ephemeral table, the table is cleared (all content is erased)."
There is still some work to do, but this is a basic setup
Passing 1s and 0s with comments is not rustacean, and since we already follow the pattern of struct flags in other sections of the codebase it's better use it here too.
This PR adds support for `DROP TABLE` and addresses issue
https://github.com/tursodatabase/limbo/issues/894
It depends on https://github.com/tursodatabase/limbo/pull/785 being
merged in because it requires the implementation of `free_page`.
EDIT: The PR above has been merged.
It adds the following:
* an implementation for the `DropTable` AST instruction via a method
called `translate_drop_table`
* a couple of new instructions - `Destroy` and `DropTable`. The former
is to modify physical b-tree pages and the latter is to modify in-memory
structures like the schema hash table.
* `btree_destroy` on `BTreeCursor` to walk the tree of pages for this
table and place it in free list.
* state machine traversal for both `btree_destroy` and
`clear_overflow_pages` to ensure performant, correct code.
* unit & tcl tests
* modifies the `Null` instruction to follow SQLite semantics and accept
a second register. It will set all registers in this range to null. This
is required for `DROP TABLE`.
The screenshots below have a comparison of the bytecodes generated via
SQLite & Limbo.
Limbo has the same instruction set except for the subroutines which
involve opening an ephemeral table, copying over the triggers from the
`sqlite_schema` table and then re-inserting them back into the
`sqlite_schema` table.
This is because `OpenEphemeral` is still a WIP and is being tracked at
https://github.com/tursodatabase/limbo/pull/768

Closes#897
the command for drop table translation has been updated so that it more closely matches the semantics of SQLite's drop table command.
there are a few more things missing like ephemeral tables, destroy etc.
this is the initial commit is for the implementation of DROP TABLE. It adds support for the DROP TABLE instruction and adds a DropBTree instruction. It also implements the btree_drop method in btree.rs which makes use of free_page method which will be implemented via PR https://github.com/tursodatabase/limbo/pull/785
This is an attempt to move towards #881. I am not sure this is the
direction you want to take. In any case, I thought I would take a crack
at converting `values` from `Record` to private and see how bad it would
be.
In the end, as you can see, it is not so bad. I think performance-wise
it shouldn't be a bad hit with Rust's zero-cost abstraction. Also,
during the process I noticed a couple improvements that could be made
here and there but I honestly wanted to start with something small
enough that wouldn't be too hard to review.
Anyway, let me know if this is really how you would like to proceed.
Closes#962
The main difference between = and != is how null values are handled.
SQLite passes a flag "NULLEQ" to Eq and Ne to disambiguate that.
In the presence of that flag, NULL = NULL.
Some prep work is done to make sure we can pass a flag instead of a
boolean to Eq and Ne. I looked into the bitflags crate but got a bit
scared with the list of dependencies.
Warning:
The following query produces a different result for Limbo:
```
select * from demo where value is null or id == 2;
```
I strongly suspect the issue is with the OR implementation, though. The
bytecode generated is quite different.
