             Summary: Allow using local indexes with uncovered columns in the WHERE clause
                 Key: PHOENIX-6402
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-6402
             Project: Phoenix
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Lars Hofhansl


In PHOENIX-6400 I had to disable using local index when uncovered columns are referenced in the WHERE clause.

There are two problems:
# The uncovered columns are represented as ProjectedColumnExpression and not correctly added as filtered by the WhereCompiler
# The scanner produced in RegionScannerFactory.getWrappedScanner does not handle this correctly.

[~kozdemir] and I brainstormed this today.

What should happen is this:
* Do add uncovered column expression as filters for local indexes (they would not be evaluated at right time)
* Pass the extra filter expression via a scan attribute
* Do something similar to what we do with conditional expressions (see PhoenixIndexBuilder.executeAtomicOp), where we assemble the complete tuple, then run the filter expression over it.

This would probably require some surgery to filing it here as an Improvement in case someone signs up for it :)
