Dag H. Wanvik updated DERBY-4698:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: derby-4698-1.diff
                derby-4698-1.stat

Uploading a preliminary patch which seems to fix this problem. 

My theory is the following: As part of DERBY-3880 a fix was inserted to handle 
the case of column references in HAVING clauses being wrong after JOIN 
flattening. 

Normally, such column references are updated as part of the flattening 
operation in the preprocess phase; i.e. in the first of the three main phases 
in the statement optimization: 

          {preprocess, optimize, modifyAccessPaths}

cf DMLStatementNode#optimizeStatement. The flattening is driven by 
SelectNode#preprocess in the call to fromList.flattenFromTables.

The fix for DERBY-3880 involved remapping the now wrong column reference in the 
HAVING clause (i.e. after join flattening) as part of the *modifyAccessPaths* 
phase, cf the fix in AggregateNode#getNewExpressionResultColumn, ca line 566 on 
trunk.

At the time, Bryan asked if the fix wasn't somewhat odd, since the phase in 
which the column reference remapping for the having clause was now done, was 
*different* from the other column reference fixups and suggested that it might 
be more appropriate to remap column references from the HAVING clause by 
passing in the havingClause in the flattenFromTables call made by SelectNode. 

I agree with Bryan that this sounds like a sounder approach, and it is the 
approach taken by this patch. It makes both queries shown in this JIRA issue 
work with the supplied database.

The problem encountered by the old fix in this case, is that the column 
reference's VCN's sourceResultSet (due to the presence of indexes?) has a 
result column which have already been converted to a CurrentRowLocationNode, cf 
the rewrite calls to addRCForRID that happen in fromBaseTable#changeAccessPath. 
This seems a correct transformation, but makes the remapping. So, essentially, 
the rewrite is attempted too late, at least for the problematic queries.

On 10.6, with debug code enabled, we don't see a NPE, but an assert that the 
desired column (A.BALANCE) could not be found. On trunk, the assert is 
different due to the change introduced by DERBY-4679: it complains that it does 
not expect to see a CurrentRowLocationNode, alas. In both cases, the problem is 
the same, the CurrentRowLocationNode's presence is unexpected and makes the 
remapping fail.

By treating column references in the havingClause uniformly with other column 
references at flattening time in the preprocess phase, there is no need for the 
old fix code, so the patch removes that.

GroupByTest which contains the test case for DERBY-3880 still passes with the 
patch, so it would seem the patch is a valid alternate solution for DERBY-3880 
also.

Will run full regressions and try to make a simple repro so we can add a new 
test case for this issue.

> Running a simple SQL query containing a having clause causes a

> also reproduces this in 10.5.3.0 and the latest 10.6.1.0.   I raised this on

> http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.db.derby.user/12782
> The query (created throw Hibernate) that causes the crash is:

> GROUP  BY user0_.user_id
> HAVING SUM(account2_.balance) >= 100.0 
> However I simplified it to the following and still caused a crash (though in
