SQLite Views loose type affinity w/ aggregates, workaround that
As soon as an aggregate function is used, SQLite seems to loose the type affinity of the expression, e.g.:
CREATE TABLE fun ( value INT );
CREATE VIEW fun_sum AS SELECT SUM(value) AS combined FROM fun;
Results in:
/// Column `combined ` (`ANY`), optional (default: `nil`).
public var combined : String?
Which isn't great.
Adding CAST
s doesn't seem to help with that, the affinity is lost by the aggregate function.
To fix that, we'd probably have to parse the SQL and follow the type-affinity in the expression AST. Possible but work.
