Re: [Haskelldb-users] [Haskell-cafe] Using HaskellDB on Tables that contain same column names

[Justin B. <jgb...@gm...>]

I'd recommend sending HaskellDB questions to the haskelldb users
mailing list. You do need to subscribe first. Now to your question:

This is by design. Just like in SQL, the column names are not
disambiguated. If you wrote a SQL query like:

  select * from Server join Model on ... join Vendor on ...

you would get duplicate column names. You must use unique column names
in the projection. Check out the haskelldb-th package for Template
Haskell utils for easily creating column names if you don't want to
declare them by hand.
