OK, I appreciate the test case, but as far as I can see the database
is doing exactly what it's supposed to. After the ALTER ADD COLUMN
we have
# table test;
id | name | New_olumn
----+------------+-----------
1 | sdsdsdsdsd |
(1 row)
# table vtest;
id | name
----+------------
1 | sdsdsdsdsd
(1 row)
# SELECT * FROM test_is_null_id(1);
tr | vr
----+----
f | t
(1 row)
That looks fine to me: "test" now contains a column that is null,
so it doesn't pass the IS NOT NULL test. On the other hand,
"vtest" doesn't contain that column; all its columns are still non
null, so it does pass the IS NOT NULL test.
Note that "foo IS NOT NULL" is not the same as "NOT (foo IS NULL)"
when foo is of composite type. I agree that's confusing, but it's
required by the SQL spec. See
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/functions-comparison.html
