[jira] [Created] (ASTERIXDB-2399) Rename COLL_* aggregate functions into STRICT_*

Till created ASTERIXDB-2399:
-------------------------------

             Summary: Rename COLL_* aggregate functions into STRICT_*
                 Key: ASTERIXDB-2399
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ASTERIXDB-2399
             Project: Apache AsterixDB
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: *DB - AsterixDB, DOC - Documentation, FUN - Functions, SQL - Translator SQL++
    Affects Versions: 0.9.3
            Reporter: Till
            Assignee: Till
             Fix For: 0.9.4


There are 2 kinds of aggregation functions in SQL++ right now:
# those with the prefix ARRAY_ (which share SQL's behavior or ignoring NULL) and
# those with the prefix COLL_ (which return NULL, if one of the values is NULL).

To reduce the confusion about which functions implement a strict NULL handling we should rename toe COLL_ functions to use the prefix STRICT_ instead.
