[jira] [Commented] (CALCITE-4972) Subfields of array columns containing structs are not qualified in getFieldOrigins
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-4972?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17506265#comment-17506265 ]

------------------------------------
Hey, sorry for not checking back in on this. Just a ping that I think this change set should still be good to go now, no conflicts with latest master. Perhaps someone with merge rights could take a look? Thanks!

> Attempting to follow on the [suggestions from Julian in this thread|https://lists.apache.org/thread/pdpqtzy5mtzlpdbhwghbty6cj0jgc86l], found a potential improvement.
> Given a table schema containing a repeated array of structs and a query projecting fields of that struct via UNNEST, the present implementation of {{getFieldOrigins}} in {{SqlValidatorImpl}} will return a list representation suggesting that the subfield is actually a member of the top level table row type.
> For example, when using the [DEPT_NESTED table from the MockCatalogReaderSimple|https://github.com/apache/calcite/blob/master/testkit/src/main/java/org/apache/calcite/test/catalog/MockCatalogReaderSimple.java#L152-L159] within tests with the following query:
> {code:sql}
> select e.empno from dept_nested, unnest(employees) as e
> {code}
> The return value currently is:
> {code:java}
> {CATALOG.SALES.DEPT_NESTED.EMPNO}
> {code}
> Rather than:
> {code:java}
> {CATALOG.SALES.DEPT_NESTED.EMPLOYEES.EMPNO}
> {code}
> No such column {{EMPNO}} exists in the root schema of the DEPT_NESTED table. [The javadoc for the method |https://github.com/apache/calcite/blob/master/core/src/main/java/org/apache/calcite/sql/validate/SqlValidator.java#L717-L728]however suggests that the return from this method should always be four entries long, although it would seem this doesn't account for nesting. Is this intended behavior, or should {{column}} entry of this list be of variable length?
