Reserved Words

  • reference
    +
    SQL++ defines an extensive list of keywords that are reserved words. You cannot use these keywords as identifiers unless you escape them. All of the SQL++ keywords are case insensitive.

    Some of the keywords are not currently implemented but are reserved for future use.

    Using Reserved Words as Identifiers

    SQL++ allows escaped identifiers to overlap with keywords. To use a reserved word as an identifier, you must escape it by enclosing the reserved word inside backticks (``). For example, if your JSON document contains a field named index, you can use it in your queries by escaping it like this:

    {
    "age": "42",
    "index": 27,
    "name": "Elvis"
}
    CREATE INDEX myindex ON default(`index`) USING GSI;
