When fixing a string literal quoting issue in Doltgres (dolthub/doltgresql#868), table functions stopped working, because the
selectExprNeedsAlias
started returningtrue
to indicate that an alias was needed (even though it wasn't) and thebuildTableFunc
function would fail.This started happening because the quoted string literals no longer matched
InputExpression
, sinceInputExpression
always trims off quotes when it is assigned. Another solution could be to expose thetrimQuotes
function from Vitess and use it to trimexpr.String()
before matching againstInputExpression
.
