I had a look at AbstractJdbc2DatabaseMetaData, and I think the solution would be to push down the call pg_get_expr()
intothe derived table to avoid the error:
So instead of the original statement:
SELECT ...
pg_catalog.pg_get_expr(i.indpred, i.indrelid) AS FILTER_CONDITION
FROM pg_catalog.pg_class ct
JOIN pg_catalog.pg_namespace n ON (ct.relnamespace = n.oid)
JOIN (SELECT i.indexrelid, i.indrelid, i.indoption,
i.indisunique, i.indisclustered, i.indpred,
i.indexprs,
information_schema._pg_expandarray(i.indkey) AS keys
FROM pg_catalog.pg_index i) i
ON (ct.oid = i.indrelid)
JOIN pg_catalog.pg_class ci ON (ci.oid = i.indexrelid)
JOIN pg_catalog.pg_am am ON (ci.relam = am.oid)
using
SELECT ...
i.filter_condition
FROM pg_catalog.pg_class ct
JOIN pg_catalog.pg_namespace n ON (ct.relnamespace = n.oid)
JOIN (SELECT i.indexrelid, i.indrelid, i.indoption,
i.indisunique, i.indisclustered,
pg_catalog.pg_get_expr(i.indpred, i.indrelid) AS filter_condition,
i.indexprs,
information_schema._pg_expandarray(i.indkey) AS keys
FROM pg_catalog.pg_index i) i
ON (ct.oid = i.indrelid)
JOIN pg_catalog.pg_class ci ON (ci.oid = i.indexrelid)
JOIN pg_catalog.pg_am am ON (ci.relam = am.oid)
seems to solve the problem.
I haven't checked if that works with 8.4 and 8.3 though.
