Issue #608: Different behavior for two equal queries

Hi,

I've got two equal queries though they behave differently:

SELECT FROM com.quasado.foundation.communication.contact.individual.IndividualContact $1
WHERE (($1.organisation.name LIKE '%Q%'))

This correctly returns one entry from my database

SELECT FROM com.quasado.foundation.communication.contact.individual.IndividualContact $1
WHERE (($1.organisation.name LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.communication.classification.name LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.postalAddresses.deliveryPoint.deliveryPointLocation.thoroughfare.name LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.communication.cellphone LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.position.name LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.job LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.communication.www LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.communication.email LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.profile.firstName LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.communication.phone LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.postalAddresses.classification.name LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.postalAddresses.deliveryPoint.deliveryPointLocation.streetNumberOrPlot LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.postalAddresses.deliveryPoint.postalCode LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.profile.title.name LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.postalAddresses.deliveryPoint.locality.town LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.profile.lastName LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.communication.instantMessaging LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.communication.fax LIKE '%Q%') OR
 ($1.profile.salutation.name LIKE '%Q%'))

This returns no results...

Here're also the execution plans from the explorer if that helps:

First query (which works):

Query Plan Description
======================

Step 1: Process IndividualContact ($1) instances
------------------------------------------------
[Step 1a]
Scan type com.quasado.foundation.communication.api.model.contact.individual.IndividualContact
locating all the IndividualContact ($1) instances.

[Step 1b]
Evaluate fields in IndividualContact ($1) instances.

Step 2: Process OrganisationContact (v$1) instances
  (for every result of step 1)
---------------------------------------------------
[Step 2a]
Iterate over all the instances (v$1) in $1.organisation.

[Step 2b]
Retrieve fields in OrganisationContact (v$1) instances.

[Step 2c]
Filter the results of step 2b
retaining only results that satisfy:
  like(v$1.name,'%Q%').

Step 3: Group results
---------------------
Group the results of step 2by:
  $1.

[Step 4]
Remove duplicates from the groups of step 3.

[Step 5]
Apply selection and prepare final results.

Second query (which fails):

Query Plan Description
======================

Iterate over all the instances (v$5) in v$4.deliveryPoint.

Step 9: Extract field values
----------------------------
Retrieve fields in DeliveryPointSpecification (v$5) instances.

Step 10: Process DeliveryPointLocation (v$6) instances

-----------------------------------------------------
Iterate over all the instances (v$6) in v$5.deliveryPointLocation.

Step 11: Extract field values
----------------------------
Retrieve fields in DeliveryPointLocation (v$6) instances.

Step 12: Process Thoroughfare (v$7) instances
  (for every result tuple of the steps above)
--------------------------------------------
Iterate over all the instances (v$7) in v$6.thoroughfare.

Step 13: Process IndividualOrganisationPosition (v$8) instances
  (for every result tuple of the steps above)
--------------------------------------------------------------
Iterate over all the instances (v$8) in $1.position.

Step 14: Process IndividualProfile (v$9) instances
  (for every result tuple of the steps above)

By the way, the second query also has way too many executions in it.. because already the FIRST where clause should be a hit and the query execution be finished as the rest are just ORs, no??

Maybe this is the result of navigation through null in one of the OR components. Navigation should be compiled as LEFT OUTER JOIN to avoid losing results in such cases, but maybe an ordinary JOIN was used in this query.

Could you isolate the OR component that causes this query execution failure? Does it have navigation through null? Could you upload the database in which this query fails?
