This results in ugly nested CONCAT > calls like: > CONCAT(CONCAT(A, ' '), B) > The more desirable form is: > CONCAT(A, ' ', B) > This change will be backwards compatible, provided that no one was relying on > the fact that CONCAT ignores fields after the first two in a tuple. This > seems a reasonable assumption to make, or at least a small break in > compatibility for a sizable improvement. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
