Preview does not allow leaving fields null for nullable columns in an
access pattern
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: TEIIDDES-110
URL:
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/TEIIDDES-110
Project: Teiid Designer
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Data Preview
Affects Versions: 6.0.0
Environment: 5.5.3GA Designer on Linux
Reporter: Greg Haber
Assignee: Dan Florian
Fix For: 6.0.0
Attachments: oracleTest_20081210_1.zip
If an access pattern contains a nullable column (and this probably also holds for
procedure input parameters), then Preview doesn't have an option to leave the value
blank (to specify null). If you enter the string "null" into the field for that
column, it will send the string "null". Not sure on how semantics of this
should work (whether leaving the field blank should be the equivalent of specifying null,
or whether we should use the string "null", or whether there should be a
checkbox for saying that the value is null), so whatever makes sense.
However regardless on how the UI works this should result in a WHERE colname IS NULL
criteria in the resulting query.
I know we aren't trying to tackle all edge cases with preview, but this is a common
case with web service parameters (it is common to have required and nillable parameters).
This one depends on JBEDSP-855 getting resolved first.
