Folks,
Please find attached two versions of a patch which provides optional
FILTER clause for aggregates (T612, "Advanced OLAP operations").
The first is intended to be applied on top of the previous patch, the
second without it. The first is, I believe, clearer in what it's
doing. Rather than simply mechanically visiting every place a
function call might be constructed, it visits a central one to change
the default, then goes only to the places where it's relevant.
The patches are both early WIP as they contain no docs or regression
tests yet.
Cheers,
David.
