Mamta A. Satoor commented on DERBY-479:
---------------------------------------

Dan, you are probably right about following 
>>>>>>>>> Dan's review comments start
"Looking more at StaticMethodCallNode.optimizeDomainValueConversion() I'm not 
convinced it is correct. 
The comments and code seem to say if I have 

 f1(f2()) 

then if f2() is CALLED ON NULL INPUT then I can take the java value directly 
from f2() and pass it to f1(). 

But, what if f1() is RETURNS NULL ON NULL INPUT, don't I need the SQL nodes to 
perform the NULL check? 
Thus don't both methods, the one being called and the one providing the 
parameter have to be CALLED ON NULL INPUT to take allow the conversion nodes to 
be dropped? "
>>>>>>>>> Dan's review comments end

But I wanted to write an example for what you have described above to test what 
exactly happens with my changes.

Following is the example I came up with and it worked fine with my changes

CREATE FUNCTION f2(A varchar(128)) RETURNS varchar(128)
EXTERNAL NAME 
'org.apache.derbyTesting.functionTests.util.ProcedureTest.function2AlwaysReturnsNull'
CALLED ON NULL INPUT
LANGUAGE JAVA PARAMETER STYLE JAVA;

CREATE FUNCTION f1(A varchar(128)) RETURNS varchar(128)
EXTERNAL NAME 
'org.apache.derbyTesting.functionTests.util.ProcedureTest.function1AlwaysReturnsAAA'
RETURNs NULL ON NULL INPUT
LANGUAGE JAVA PARAMETER STYLE JAVA;

The java methods invoked by the 2 sql functions are as follows
        public static String function1AlwaysReturnsAAA(String a) throws 
SQLException
        {
                return "AAA";
        }

        public static String function2AlwaysReturnsNull(String a) throws 
SQLException
        {
                return (String)null;
        }

Then I tried following in ij and both of them returned null which is the 
correct value
values f1(f2('sss'));
1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NULL

values f1(f2(null));
1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NULL

I have spent couple of hours on trying to come up with another example where I 
can see that my changes won't work but I haven't succedded. Do you have an 
example in mind which I can try? Thanks
