    This case is OK.

>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Table API & SQL
>    Affects Versions: 1.4.0, 1.3.2

>            Assignee: Xingcan Cui
>            Priority: Critical
>
> TableFunction left outer joins with predicates in the ON clause are broken. 
> Apparently, the are no tests for this and it has never worked. I observed 
> issues on several layers:
> - Table Function does not correctly validate equality predicate: 
> {{leftOuterJoin(func1('c) as 'd,  'a.cast(Types.STRING) === 'd)}} is rejected 
> because the predicate is not considered as an equality predicate (the cast 
> needs to be pushed down).
> - Plans cannot be correctly translated: {{leftOuterJoin(func1('c) as 'd,  'c 
> === 'd)}} gives an optimizer exception.
> - SQL queries get translated but produce incorrect results. For example 
> {{SELECT a, b, c, d FROM MyTable LEFT OUTER JOIN LATERAL TABLE(tfunc(c)) AS 
> T(d) ON d = c}} returns an empty result if the condition {{d = c}} never 
> returns true. However, the outer side should be preserved and padded with 
> nulls.
> So there seem to be many issues with table function outer joins. Especially, 
> the wrong result produced by SQL queries need to be quickly fixed.
