Regression (wrong results): Join predicate can be ignored for left-most child
in a chain of nested unions.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DERBY-1681
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1681
Project: Derby
Issue Type: Bug
Components: SQL
Affects Versions: 10.1.3.1, 10.1.3.0, 10.2.0.0
Reporter: A B
Fix For: 10.2.0.0
If Derby chooses to do a join between two FromTables and the right table is a
chain of UNIONs, then the optimizer may choose to push the join predicate (if
provided) down into the UNION and to both children of every UNION in the chain.
But if the predicate cannot be pushed to the children of any of the UNIONs
(except the top-level one) the predicate can end up being ignored altogether
with respect to that UNION's children. The result is that query execution can
return rows that do not satisfy the predicate.
This is a regression introduced in 10.1.2.4 and thus it affects 10.1.3 and
10.2. I came across this while tracing through code for DERBY-1633.
