Manish Khettry commented on DERBY-3231:
---------------------------------------

I did not look into the "phantom column" behavior; just getting rid of the 
faulty logic which assumed the sort column was a constant expression did the 
trick. 

+1 on your proposal.




> Sorting on COUNT with OR and GROUP BY delivers wrong results.

> The result of the select is not sorted in "order by COUNT(*) DESC" or "order 
> by COUNT(*) ASC" 
> create table yy (a double, b double);
> insert into yy values (2, 4);
> insert into yy values (5, 7);
> insert into yy values (2, 3);
> insert into yy values (2, 3);
> insert into yy values (2, 3);
> insert into yy values (2, 3);
> insert into yy values (9, 7);
> select b, COUNT(*) AS "COUNT_OF", SUM(b) AS "sum b" 
> from yy
> where a = 5 or a = 2
> group by b
> order by COUNT(*) asc
> -- same result as:
> select b, COUNT(*) AS "COUNT_OF", SUM(b) AS "sum b" 
> from yy
> where a = 5 or a = 2
> group by b
> order by COUNT(*) desc
