David Wayne Birdsall commented on TRAFODION-2559:
-------------------------------------------------
The bug seems to be in ZZZBinderFunction::bindNode
(optimizer/BindItemExpr.cpp). The code that processes RIGHT converts it to a
SUBSTR as follows:
if ( getOperatorType() == ITM_RIGHT )
strcpy(buf, "SUBSTRING(@A1 FROM (CHAR_LENGTH(@A1) - CAST(@A2 AS INT
UNSIGNED) + 1));");
Now, the question is, is this the correct semantic? Perhaps there should be a
CASE statement that uses 1 if the expression is less than 1. I am trying to
locate a recent copy of the ANSI standard to see.
