[teiid-users] unexpected query results against XML data source

That's excellent news. I had grabbed the 6.2.0 M2 snapshot (v20090820) of teiid-designer.

Mike,

The defect you've uncovered isn't the same as TEIID-93, it's much simpler and obvious.  I'm checking in a change for 6.2 today.  Are you working with 6.2 or 6.1?

I've attached both the xml and the xsd used and re-tested the importation and query against them with the same result. Thanks for looking into it! Could it be the same issue as this:

My issue is a much simpler case, however. The query needn't be pushed down as apart of the planner over a federated view to cause the irregularity -- one need only query the XML source directly.

Thanks again!

And just for giggles:

Hello. I've downloaded and installed the snapshot as of today (8/31/2009) and, using the designer:

(This View abstraction turns out not to be the problem -- I query the Source via the Execute'd VDB with the same outcome.)

Is there something goofy with the equality operator against XML data? Is there flag that needs flipped on these attributes? I went with the "string" mapping on the 'XML Schema as Relational Source Model' dialog wizard (pane 4 IIRC). Oughtn't I have? I also changed XML node names that might have been SQL keywords ('name' -> 'fullname') but no dice...
