[jira] (TINKERPOP-1597) PathRetractionStrategy messing up certain traversals

["Ted Wilmes (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1597?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Ted Wilmes closed TINKERPOP-1597.
---------------------------------
    Resolution: Fixed

A `PathRetractionStrategy` test has been added to verify the nested `dedup` does not drop labels.  The new `OptionalTest` test method provided by [~dkuppitz] is affected by TINKERPOP-1619 so it was not merged as part of this ticket.

> There are certain types of traversals that do not work when {{PathRetractionStrategy}} is included. This ticket discusses one specific case that is only reproducible in {{3.3.0-SNAPSHOT}} / current {{master/}}.
> Here's the traversal and the expected result:
> {noformat}
> gremlin> g.withoutStrategies(PathRetractionStrategy).V(1,2).as("a").optional(bothE().dedup().as("b")).choose(select("b").select("a","b")., project("a").by(select("a")))
> ==>[a:v[2]]
> ==>[a:v[1],b:e[9][1-created->3]]
> ==>[a:v[1],b:e[7][1-knows->2]]
> ==>[a:v[1],b:e[8][1-knows->4]]
> {noformat}
> With {{PathRetractionStrategy}} included we get:
> {noformat}
> gremlin> g.V(1,2).as("a").optional(bothE().dedup().as("b")).choose(select("b"), select("a","b"), project("a").by(select("a")))
> ==>[a:v[2]]
> {noformat}
> What's interesting is, that the following 2 traversals compile to the same final traversal (according to {{.explain()}}):
> {noformat}
> g.withoutStrategies(PathRetractionStrategy).V(1,2).as("a").optional(bothE().dedup().as("b")).choose(select("b").barrier(2500), select("a","b").barrier(2500), project("a").by(select("a").barrier(2500)))
> g.V(1,2).as("a").optional(bothE().dedup().as("b")).choose(select("b"), select("a","b"), project("a").by(select("a")))
> {noformat}
> ...but the one w/ {{PathRetractionStrategy}} still returns the wrong result, while the other traversal returns the expected result.
