Basic Predicate

Description

A basic predicate compares two values using a relational operator (see Relational Operators for information). If a basic predicate specifies a query expression, then the query expression must return a single value. Basic predicates often specify an inner join. See Inner Joins for more detail.

If the value of any expression is null or the query_expression does not return any value, then the result of the predicate is set to false.

Syntax

basic_predicate ::

expr relop { expr | (query_expression) }
