Julian Hyde commented on CALCITE-4999:
--------------------------------------
[~dmsysolyatin], Thanks for picking this up. Could you add tests in both
SqlValidatorTest and SqlOperatorTest. For some reason we never added unit tests
for 'array (select ...' and 'multiset (select ...' in the latter. Might be why
we're facing this problem now.
> ARRAY function should return an array of scalars if subquery returns 1 column

> At the moment `array` function returns [RecordType ARRAY] if subquery is
> passed like an argument.
> {code:java}
> SELECT array(select 'toast.' || x from unnest(ARRAY['1','2']) x){code}
> But Sql standard says:
> {code:java}
> 6.38 <array value constructor>
> Function
> Specify construction of an array.
> Format
> <array value constructor> ::=
> <array value constructor by enumeration>
> | <array value constructor by query>
> [...]
> <array value constructor by query> ::=
> ARRAY <table subquery>
> Syntax Rules
> [...]
> 3) If <array value constructor by query> is specified, then
> a) The <query expression> QE simply contained in the <table subquery> shall
> be of degree 1 (one). Let ET be the declared type of the column in the result
> of <query expression>.
> b) The declared type of the <array value constructor by query> is array with
> element type ET and maximum cardinality equal to the implementation-defined
> maximum cardinality IMDC for such array types.
> {code}
> Proposed solution is to return an array of scalars (e.g. INTEGER ARRAY) when
> the query returns 1 column, and continue to return an array of ROW when the
> query has 2 or more columns. And do the same for MULTISET.
