MySQL 8.0.20 introduced a new syntax for
INSERT ... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATEthat allows referencing the inserted row using an alias instead of theVALUES()function:The alias syntax is cleaner and more readable, especially when referencing multiple columns or using expressions like
new.a + new.b.Implementation
opt_values_row_aliasrule to acceptAS aliasafter VALUESinsert_values_aliasfield to store the aliasItem_field::fix_fields(), when we're in ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE and the table qualifier matches the alias, we convert the reference to anItem_insert_value(equivalent toVALUES())The traditional
VALUES()function continues to work unchanged.Tests
