A B commented on DERBY-3301:
----------------------------

Two comments on the 3b patch.

1) The additional comments in SubqueryNode that describe the new condition for 
a flattenable
subquery seem like they might be slightly inverted.  The comments say:

   /* Values subquery is flattenable if:
    * ...
    *  o It is not a nested WHERE EXISTS subquery in a WHERE EXISTS clause 
(DERBY-3301)
    */

Ignoring the conditions which were already there, I read this as:

  "A subquery SQ1 is flattenable if it is not a nested WHERE EXISTS subquery in 
the WHERE
  EXISTS clause of another subquery, SQ2".

Is that a correct reading?  If so, I think that if SQ1 *is* a nested WHERE 
EXISTS subquery in
the WHERE EXISTS clause of SQ2, then it's technically _SQ2_ that is not 
flattenable, not SQ1.
That said, the actual code changes in the new "hasNestedWhereExistsClause()" 
look correct,
so I think this is just a comment issue, not a code one.  Maybe a better 
condition would be:

  o Either a) it (the subquery) does not appear within a WHERE clause, or b) it 
appears within
    a WHERE clause but does not itself contain a WHERE clause with other 
subqueries in it.

This definition is quite a bit more wordy, but it matches the documentation and 
it also matches
the code in hasNestedWhereExistsClause a bit more closely--though not exactly.  
See #2
comment below...

2) The logic that exists in hasNestedWhereExistsClause() does exactly what its 
name implies,
i.e. it checks specifically for "nested WHERE EXISTS clauses".  That in itself 
is good since it
addresses the issue reported.  But I did notice that the documentation for 
EXISTS join flattening
suggests a slightly more general condition:

 http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.3/tuning/ctuntransform25868.html

Namely, it seems like a more complete approach would be check to see if the 
subquery's
WHERE clause "includes _any_ subqueries"--not just WHERE EXISTS subqueries.  For
example: if the inner-most WHERE EXISTS query was replaced with a WHERE IN or 
WHERE
ANY clause, would we still get the correct results?

As an example, I re-wrote the inner-most WHERE EXISTS subquery from 
derby-3301.sql to use a
WHERE IN clause that effectively duplicates one of the (already-existing) 
equality predicate, and
so should in theory return the same results...I think? (I could be wrong here):

select unbound_e.empid, unbound_p.projid
from departments this,
     employees unbound_e,
     projects unbound_p
where exists (
    select 1 from employees this_employees_e
    where this_employees_e.empid in (                           -- *** Army 
changed this
        select this_employees_e_projects_p.empid        -- *** Army changed this
        from project_employees this_employees_e_projects_p
        where this_employees_e_projects_p.empid = this_employees_e.empid
        and this_employees_e.department = this.id
        and unbound_p.projid = this_employees_e_projects_p.projid
        and unbound_e.empid = this_employees_e.empid)

This returns three rows:

EMPID      |PROJID
-----------------------
13         |101
13         |102
15         |103

Is that correct?  Or should that query be returning 7 rows, as well?  What 
about if
the first WHERE EXISTS query is changed to a "WHERE IN" query, as well--will
that behave correctly?

If it should return seven rows, as well, then perhaps the new method in 
SubqueryNode
could be expanded to check for the existence of _any_ subquery, not just a WHERE
EXISTS subquery?

One way to do that might be to use a CollectNodesVisitor to collect all 
instances of
SubqueryNode.class that appear in "sn.originalWhereSubquerys" and/or in
"sn.originalWhereClause()"--and if that visitor returns any matches, then the 
method
returns "false".  I'm not entirely sure that will work, but it seems like it 
could...?
