Knut Anders Hatlen commented on DERBY-4420:
-------------------------------------------
It looks like setTableConstructorTypes() is only meant for table constructors
(values clauses). UnionNode overrides it and makes it a no-op unless the union
really is a values clause that has been rewritten to a union.
IntersectOrExceptNode does not override it. I tried implementing an empty
override in IntersectOrExceptNode, and that made the NPE go away. Probably, the
code in ResultSetNode.setTableConstructorTypes() should only be executed if the
node is a RowResultSetNode, so an alternative solution would be to move the
method to RowResultSetNode and make the method in ResultSetNode a no-op.
The change fixes the NPE, and the query with no generated columns, identity
columns or default values works correctly. The queries that insert into a table
with a column that's auto-generated somehow, this error is raised instead:
ERROR 42X77: Column position '2' is out of range for the query expression.
So either it's the wrong fix, or there's more than one bug.

> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 10.1.1.0, 10.2.1.6, 10.3.1.4, 10.4.1.3, 10.5.1.1,
> 10.5.3.0, 10.6.0.0

> The sequence of statements below give a NullPointerException. The statements
> are very similar to the ones in DERBY-4419, but this is a separate bug since
> the stack traces are different, and this bug can be seen all the way back to
> 10.1.1.0, whereas DERBY-4419 was a regression in 10.3. (On 10.0.2.1, a syntax
> error is raised instead of the NPE.)
> ij> create table t1(x int);
> 0 rows inserted/updated/deleted
> ij> insert into t1 values 1,2;
> 2 rows inserted/updated/deleted
> ij> create table t2(x int);
> 0 rows inserted/updated/deleted
> ij> insert into t2 values 2,3;
> 2 rows inserted/updated/deleted
> ij> create table t3(x int, y int generated always as identity);
> 0 rows inserted/updated/deleted
> ij> insert into t3(x) select * from t1 except select * from t2;
> ERROR XJ001: Java exception: ': java.lang.NullPointerException'.
> Same error if INTERSECT is used instead of EXCEPT.
