If inherited tables don't have exactly the same schema, the USING clause in an ALTER TABLE / SET DATA TYPE misbehaves when applied to the children tables since commit 9550e834. Starting with that commit, the attribute numbers in the USING expression are fixed during parse analysis. This can lead to bogus errors being reported during execution, such as: ERROR: attribute 2 has wrong type DETAIL: Table has type smallint, but query expects integer. Since it wouldn't do to revert to the original coding, we now apply a transformation to map the attribute numbers to the correct ones for each child. Reported by Justin Pryzby Analysis by Tom Lane; patch by me. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20170102225618.GA10071@telsasoft.com
