[teiid-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (TEIID-1974) Function RAND() should be RANDOM(int, int) for Teradata

Function RAND() should be RANDOM(int, int) for Teradata ------------------------------------------------------- Key: TEIID-1974 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-1974 Project: Teiid Issue Type: Bug Components: Query Engine Affects Versions: 7.6 Reporter: Paul Nittel Assignee: Steven Hawkins Fix For: 7.7.1, 8.0 This query: SELECT INTKEY, RAND() FROM SmallA works for all source except Teradata. With TD it get this exception: [Teradata Database] [TeraJDBC 13.00.00.06] [Error 3706] [SQLState 42000] Syntax error: expected something between '(' and ')'. After looking at the TD Web site, I found it expects the RANDOM function with low and high limits (integers). It expects something like: SELECT INTKEY, RANDOM(2,6) FROM SmallA It would appear we need to be able to pass the function in that form to the source. If I try to query (through a VDB) SELECT INTKEY, RANDOM(2,6) FROM SmallA or SELECT INTKEY, RAND(2,6) FROM SmallA, Teiid reports the function is in an unknown form. (This wasn't a surprise.)
