Ticket: [CALCITE-5390]
I will have time to continue this work only next month. If anyone wishes to take over or continue this task in the meantime, please feel free to do so. I currently have a draft solution, but it has a few problems that need resolving:
NullPointerExceptionin cases where a correlation variable is used but has not been properly introduced. This specifically happens in join plans where a subquery exists in the ON clause, but not in the WHERE clause. (See example: [CALCITE-7286]). Also in this case of [CALCITE-7286]LogicalJoinshould be replaced byLogicalCorrelateRelNode.copymethod with a 3rd parameter to replace the variablesSet [CALCITE-7280]. As suggested by Stamatis in a comment on this task, this functionality should probably be implemented using theRelBuilderinstead.buildKeepingLast.PR contains two commits. The first commit relates to [CALCITE-7280] (introducing copy method) and second contains the logic for the main fix itself. Feel free to add any comment you wish, especially if you know a better solution.
