postgresql custom types (nested composite, enum) not supported in various editor functions
See original GitHub issueDBeaver 21.2.3
Recent DBeaver versions have improved composite type support for Postgresql quite a bit, but there are still broken things unfortunately. The following features in the editor do not work for nested composite types:
- ‘Generate SQL -> INSERT’
- ‘Duplicate Row’ In previous versions, this didn’t work for any composite type, so there’s definitely been an improvement here already (#13351, #13102) but the nested composite types seem to have been overlooked in these improvements.
To reproduce:
create schema test;
create type test.ct as (a int, b int);
create type test.ct2 as (a test.ct, b int);
create table test.t1 (a int, b test.ct2);
insert into test.t1 (a, b.a.a) (values (1, 1));
-- now disconnect and connect so that dbeaver refreshes the metadata cache
select * from test.t1;
-- now right click on a row and choose 'Generate SQL -> INSERT'
This still generates incorrect syntax (array syntax for a composite type):
INSERT INTO test.t1
(a, b)
VALUES(1, '("[1, null]",)');
A second problem arises when using enums inside a schema. Consider the following:
create type test.en as enum ('ab', 'bc');
create table test.t3 (a int, b test.en);
insert into test.t3 (values (1, 'ab'));
-- now disconnect and connect so that dbeaver refreshes the metadata cache
select * from test.t3;
-- now right click on a row and choose 'Generate SQL -> INSERT'
This generates the following SQL (note the missing schema qualifier before en
):
INSERT INTO test.t3
(a, b)
VALUES(1, 'ab'::en);

Hmmm, let me re-install tomorrow (it’s 8:30pm and I’m tired). I upgraded from a very old version of DBeaver. Maybe it’s just bunged.
Will let you know. Thanks for checking.
