Bug reference:      3938

Email address:      cgriffo@practicepartner.com
PostgreSQL version: 8.3
Operating system:   Windows XP
Description:        Row-wise comparison fails
Details:

The row-wise compare fails in the select statement below. This works in
PostgreSQL 8.2 but fails in 8.3.

--drop TABLE test;

CREATE TABLE test
(
  id integer,
  str1 character varying(5),
  str2 character
);
CREATE INDEX test_index1 ON test (str1, str2);

insert into test (id, str1, str2) values(1, 'a', '1');
insert into test (id, str1, str2) values(2, 'b', '2');

SELECT * from test where (str1, str2, id) > ('a', '1', 0);

Confirmed here.

> SELECT * from test where (str1, str2, id) > ('a', '1', 0);

The error message is:

alvherre=# SELECT * from test where (str1, str2, id) > ('a', '1', 0);
ERREUR:  could not find member 4(25,25) of opfamily 426

Note that if I change the order of columns, it works:

alvherre=# SELECT * from test where (id,str1, str2) > (0,'a', '1');
 id | str1 | str2
----+------+------
  1 | a    | 1
  2 | b    | 2
(2 lignes)

Weird.  I suppose I broke this in the operator-family rewrite.
Will look.

Sigh ... I fat-fingered some loop control logic ...
