Andy Seaborne commented on JENA-1365:
-------------------------------------

The related formatter change is:

https://github.com/apache/jena/commit/f19d8b267e1976f655e2c7509e6c7ce67c0c9496#diff-9aaed90671f0c690e61dc6dcf937cefeL240

when the formatter for UNION should look like:

{noformat}
     @Override
     public void visit(ElementUnion el) {
         if ( el.getElements().size() == 1 ) {
             // If this is an element of just one, just do it in-place
            return ;
         } 
         . . .
{noformat}


> QueryBuilder can build an invalid union-of-one query.

>             Project: Apache Jena
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: QueryBuilder
>    Affects Versions: Jena 3.3.0
>            Reporter: Claude Warren
>            Assignee: Claude Warren

> From email chain betwen Claude and Andy
>     is the union-of-one still legal during the construction of the query?
> Its illegal in a query - UNION is
> {..} UNION {..} UNION {..}
>     The
>     expected usage in the builder is:
>     {noformat}
>     builder.addUnion( <select-type-statement> ).addUnion(
>     <select-type-statement>)
>     {noformat}
>     Currently the code builds a union-of-one and adds the next union to it. 
>     check to ensure that a union-of-one is not generated in the
>     final result.
> At a minimum it an error to generate a union of one.
> So either, throw an expection or generate "{ pattern }" (including inside {}) 
> which is the moral equivalent.
> IMO The second is nicer.  Tat is what I changed the formatter to do so at 
> least it generated something even if it is changing the query a bit (round 
> trip checking will fail but then it fails currently as it can't be parsed at 
> all)
