--------------------------------------

Actually, the patch only solved the first failing case in the repro, so the patch is insufficient.

> Hi,
> in some cases there seem to be issues with SQLAuthorisation in conjunction with database VIEWS.
> Please see attached files as repro (script.txt has only the SQL I executed, output is the output resulting when running the script). 
> I would think identical results should be returned in all cases and independent on how the view has been defined, but this to my surprise not being the case:
> 1) Trying to select from view appl."VW_MyTasks" - which is a simple view defined on just one table - leads to expected results, i.e. "my" tasks are being returned.
> 2) Trying to select from view appl."VW_MyPriorityTasks - which is a view defined on two joined tables without using an inner join clause - leads to expected results, i.e. "my" priority tasks are being returned.
> 3) Trying to select from view appl."VW2_MyPriorityTasks - which is the same view but now the two tables joined using an inner join clause - leads to an error and no tasks returned (when the same results as in 2) above were expected).
> 4) Trying to select from view appl."VW3_MyPriorityTasks" - which is a view defined using a subselect - also unexpectedly leads to an error.
> Note: While I could rewrite each inner join clause with changing the syntax like in 2) above, this provides a simple work-around for such cases. May be there is a work-around for subselects also (not sure if every subselect could be rewritten to a join?). However when depending on using EXISTS constructs in the query there unfortunately is no way (I would know of) to get around this problem. Unfortuanetly a view that makes use of EXISTS is also one I would need to define in my data base...
> Thanks
