sascha-coenen opened a new issue #9415: SQL: NVL does not work with empty strings as documentation states it would
URL: https://github.com/apache/druid/issues/9415
 
 
   ### Affected Version
   0.16.0 and 0.17.0
   
   
   ### Description
   
   NVL does NOT work with empty strings
   
   ```
   SELECT
      NVL('something', 'fallback') AS tst1,   
      NVL(null, 'fallback') AS tst2,
      NVL('', 'fallback') AS tst3
   ```
   this yields
   "something", "fallback", ""
   
   According to the documentation, the third projection should also yield the output "fallback"
   > NVL(expr,expr-for-null) | Returns 'expr-for-null' if 'expr' is null (or empty string for string type).
