And before the projection step?
If we have
SELECT (ex:agg1(?y, ?z)+ex:agg2(?y, ?z)+1 AS ?A)
{
...
}
GROUP BY ?x
then in each row, each ex:agg?(?y, ?z) needs to turn into a value.
Operator + evaluates each argument, then calls op:numeric-add.
How, in expression evaluation, does ex:agg1(?y, ?z) get mapped to a
value? I would like to avoid wholesale changes to expression evaluation
unless there is no other way.
