SQL standard defines the following syntax for WITH clause:
WITH [RECURSIVE] common_table_expression ["," ...]
common_table_expression:
identifier ["(" column_name_list ")"] AS "(" query_expression ")"
[search_clause]
[cycle_clause]
search_clause:
SEARCH {DEPTH | BREATH} FIRST BY column_name_list SET identifier
cycle_clause:
CYCLE column_name_list
SET identifier TO expr
DEFAULT expr USING identifier
column_name_list:
identifier ["," ...]
No dialect fully supports the standard:
WITH [RECURSIVE] common_table_expression ["," ...]
common_table_expression:
identifier AS "(" query_expression ")"
DB2:
WITH common_table_expression ["," ...]
common_table_expression:
identifier ["(" column_name_list ")"] AS "(" query_expression ")"
Hive:
WITH common_table_expression ["," ...]
common_table_expression:
identifier AS "(" query_expression ")"
MariaDB supports just a single common_table_expression
:
WITH [RECURSIVE] common_table_expression
common_table_expression:
identifier ["(" column_name_list ")"] AS "(" query_expression ")"
[CYCLE column_name_list RESTRICT]
WITH [RECURSIVE] common_table_expression ["," ...]
common_table_expression:
identifier ["(" column_name_list ")"] AS "(" query_expression ")"
N1QL:
WITH common_table_expression ["," ...]
common_table_expression:
identifier AS "(" query_expression ")"
WITH [plsql_declarations] [common_table_expression ["," ...]]
plsql_declarations:
function_declaration | procedure_declaration
common_table_expression:
identifier ["(" column_name_list ")"] AS "(" query_expression ")"
[search_clause]
[cycle_clause]
search_clause:
SEARCH {DEPTH | BREATH} FIRST BY {column_alias ["," ...]} SET identifier
column_alias:
identifier [ASC | DESC] [NULLS FIRST | NULLS LAST]
cycle_clause:
CYCLE column_name_list
SET identifier TO expr
DEFAULT expr
WITH [RECURSIVE] common_table_expression ["," ...]
common_table_expression:
