Hi Dan, MariaDB (5.2.0+) supports virtual columns and the syntax is <type> [GENERATED ALWAYS] AS ( <expression> ) [VIRTUAL | PERSISTENT] [UNIQUE] [UNIQUE KEY] [COMMENT <text>] While implementing [1], to add parser support for virtual columns, I tried to model this syntax using $FIELD_OPTIONS [2]. Even though I am able to retrieve the expression this way, all the brackets and spaces of the expression are gone. As I understand, this due to the tokenization. Do you have any suggestion for an alternative approach?
