             Summary: Streams/Slow iterators dont close on statement close
                 Key: CALCITE-849
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-849
             Project: Calcite
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Jesse Yates
            Assignee: Julian Hyde
             Fix For: 1.5.0-incubating


This is easily seen when querying an infinite stream with a clause that cannot 
be matched
{code}
select stream PRODUCT from orders where PRODUCT LIKE 'noMatch';
select stream * from orders where PRODUCT LIKE 'noMatch';
{code}

The issue arises when accessing the results in a multi-threaded context. Yes, 
its not a good idea (and things will break, like here). However, this case 
feels like it ought to be an exception.

Suppose you are accessing a stream and have a query that doesn't match anything 
on the stream for a long time. Because of the way a ResultSet is built, the 
call to executeQuery() will hang until the first matching result is received. 
In that case, you might want to cancel the query because its taking so long. 
You also want the thing that's accessing the stream (the StreamTable 
implementation) to cancel the querying/collection - via a call to close on the 
passed iterator/enumerable.

Since the first result was never generated, the ResultSet was never returned to 
the caller. You can get around this by using a second thread and keeping a 
handle to the creating statement. When you go to close that statement though, 
you end up not closing the cursor (and the underlying iterables/enumberables) 
because it never finished getting created.

It gets even more problematic if you are use select * as the iterable doesn't 
finish getting created in the AvaticaResultSet.
