Informix - Problem description

Problem IT40875 Status: Closed

NESTED COLLECTION SUBQUERY RETURNING EMPTY WITH 'ORDER BY' ON MAIN QUERY

product:
INFORMIX SERVER / 5725A3900 / E10 - 
Problem description:
A collection subquery nested in another one would loose its
result set if an ORDER BY is placed on the main query.

Most simple example:

SELECT 'x' x , MULTISET ( SELECT MULTISET ( SELECT 'y' ) ) ms
ORDER BY 1;

should return (and does without the ORDER BY)

x   x
m  MULTISET{ROW(MULTISET{ROW('y')})}

yet returns

x   x
ms  MULTISET{ROW(MULTISET{})}
