Join

A JoinItem is the right hand side of a cross, inner, leftOuter, rightOuter, fullOuter join of FromClauses.

left & cross (Join right). For every possible combination of rows from left and right (i.e., a Cartesian product), the joined table will contain a row consisting of all columns in left followed by all columns in right. If the tables have n and m rows respectively, the joined table will have n * m rows.

Like crossJoin with a subquery but allowed to reference columns provided by preceding FromClause items.

left & inner (Join right) on. The joined table is filtered by the on condition.

Like innerJoin with a subquery but allowed to reference columns provided by preceding FromClause items.

left & leftOuter (Join right) on. First, an inner join is performed. Then, for each row in left that does not satisfy the on condition with any row in right, a joined row is added with null values in columns of right. Thus, the joined table always has at least one row for each row in left.

left & leftOuterJoin right on. First, an inner join is performed. Then, for each row in left that does not satisfy the on condition with any row in right, a joined row is added with null values in columns of right. Thus, the joined table always has at least one row for each row in left.

left & rightOuter (Join right) on. First, an inner join is performed. Then, for each row in right that does not satisfy the on condition with any row in left, a joined row is added with null values in columns of left. This is the converse of a left join: the result table will always have a row for each row in right.

Then, for each row in right that does not satisfy the on condition with any row in left, a joined row is added with null values in columns of left.

left & fullOuter (Join right) on. First, an inner join is performed. Then, for each row in left that does not satisfy the on condition with any row in right, a joined row is added with null values in columns of right. Also, for each row of right that does not satisfy the join condition with any row in left, a joined row with null values in the columns of left is added.

Then, for each row in left that does not satisfy the on condition with any row in right, a joined row is added with null values in columns of right. Also, for each row of right that does not satisfy the join condition with any row in left, a joined row with null values in the columns of left is added.
