[jira] [Updated] (FLINK-8387) Do not allow filter(false)

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8387?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Timo Walther updated FLINK-8387:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
Code like the following looks correct but actually produces unintended side effects:

{code}
left.join(right)
  .where('a == 'd)
  .select('a)
{code}

{{==}} is not converted into an expression but directly evaluated into a boolean expression and implicitly converted into an {{false}} literal. Instead of an exception this leads to an always rejecting table program. We should not allow filters with {{false}} literals.
