![]() (Review input addressed) After this patch, the optimizer can handle virtual column expressions in WHERE/ON clauses. If the table has an indexed virtual column: ALTER TABLE t1 ADD COLUMN vcol INT AS (col1+1), ADD INDEX idx1(vcol); and the query uses the exact virtual column expression: SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE col1+1 <= 100 then the optimizer will be able use index idx1 for it. This is achieved by walking the WHERE/ON clauses and replacing instances of virtual column expression (like "col1+1" above) with virtual column's Item_field (like "vcol"). The latter can be processed by the optimizer. Replacement is considered (and done) only in items that are potentially usable to the range optimizer. |
