SQL syntax, at least what I'm familiar with offhand, makes you explicitly say things such as WHERE (a.cola = b.colb OR a.cola IS NULL OR b.colb IS NULL) or similar syntax but with distinct variations for joining 'left' and 'right' tables on an expression (which, BTW, can be noticeably slower than the WHERE version, depending on which database you're using). |
