When a query has local equality predicate on a simple column "tab1.colX = NULL" as well as equality predicate "tab1.colX = tab2.colY" where tab1 and tab2 are two different tables or quantifiers, the query compilation may return -901 error "invalid qnc assignment" and the following compiler error stack can be found in db2diag.log: sqlnr_splitswbox[60] sqlnq_qtb::box_opr_split[116] sqlnq_pid::update_qnc[100] sqlnq_pid::replace_qnc[100] Note in Oracle compatibility mode "COL=''" is also transformed to "COL=NULL". | |
