Thank a lot for this remark!
I tried to dig to the transformJsonOutput() to fix it earlier at the analyze stage,
but it looks like a rather hard way.
Maybe simple in accordance with you note remove the second condition from this line:
if (jb && JB_ROOT_IS_SCALAR(jb)) ?
There is a simplified reproduction before such a fix:
postgres=# select JSON_QUERY(jsonb '[]', '$' RETURNING char(5) OMIT QUOTES EMPTY ON EMPTY);
server closed the connection unexpectedly
This probably means the server terminated abnormally
after:
postgres=# select JSON_QUERY(jsonb '[]', '$' RETURNING char(5) OMIT QUOTES EMPTY ON EMPTY);
json_query
------------
[]
(1 row)
And at the moment i havn't found any side effects of that fix.
Please point me if i'm missing something.
With the best wishes!
