Postgres won't accept table alias before column name

jodd, postgresql, sql

Solution

Try using the latest Jodd, v3.3.7. where this issue is fixed.

The problem was in the Jodd library: entity update methods were generating update statement with table aliases. The new version simply does not put table aliases; that works for Postgres and for other databases too.

Problem

I'm using a framework (Jodd) which is adding the table alias to the column names in a SQL Select. It looks like well-formed SQL, but Postgres chokes on it. ``` update GREETING Greeting set Greeting.ID=5, Greeting.NAME='World', Greeting.PHRASE='Hello World!' where (Greeting.ID=5) ``` gives an error: ``` Error: ERROR: column "greeting" of relation "greeting" does not exist SQLState: 42703 ``` Is there a way to get Postgres to accept that SQL? My other alternative is to hack the framework, which I don't want to do.
