DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC65953 Status: Closed

RECURSIVE QUERY WITHOUT INITIALIZATION FULLSELECT HANGS DURING COMPILATION

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 950 - DB2
Problem description:
A recursive query that is missing the initialization full select 
hangs during compilation.  Here is an example of such a query: 
 
   with tab (col) as (select 'const' from tab) select * from tab 
 
Because there is no initialization full select, the query would 
never return any rows.  This is a badly written query where the 
intention was either: 
 
a) a recursive query but the initialization full select was 
merely neglected 
b) that the table reference 'tab' in the the common table 
expression full select is a real table.  In this case, the table 
references must be changed or qualified to avoid confusion, 
e.g.: 
 
    with A.tab (col) as (select 'const' from B.tab) select * 
from A.tab
