Summary

  • Preserve the data array only for a zero-dimensional scalar.
  • Index non-scalar arrays even when their leading sample dimension has length one, so the returned sample has the expected shape.

Closes #3230.

Validation: source review and git diff --check only. No build or tests were run.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Corrected sample retrieval for zero-dimensional arrays. One-element arrays are now indexed by sample rather than returned as a whole.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

array_column::request_sample_ now returns zero-dimensional data directly. For arrays with dimensions, it returns the requested sample, including when the array has one sample.

Array sample retrieval

Layer / File(s) Summary
Select an array sample
cpp/heimdall_common/array_column_view.hpp
The method now checks array dimensionality. It returns zero-dimensional data directly and indexes arrays with dimensions by sample.

Change: Bug fix · Severity of issue fixed: Low

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 94f4b

This change fixes one-sample array retrieval; a focused regression test would protect it, and no current merge-blocking failure is established.

Before / after behavior

  • observed — Modified behavior in cpp/heimdall_common/array_column_view.hpp: request_sample_ now uses dimensionality to choose its result: zero-dimensional data is returned whole, while data with dimensions is indexed. Previously, the whole array was returned whenever samples_count() equaled one.

And finds the sample, neat and straight.
A scalar stays just as it came,
A singleton sheds its extra frame.

123-123: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Add a one-sample regression test through table_data.

The existing tests do not cover this boundary. The DuckDB scan calls request_range(), not request_sample(). The PostgreSQL table_scan path calls table_data::get_column_value(), but the existing fixtures contain multiple rows, so the old samples_count() == 1 branch is not taken.

Add a one-row array test with pg_deeplake.use_deeplake_executor disabled. Assert that the returned value is [1, 2, 3], not a nested one-sample array.

Verified: samples_count() is dimension-based, so a 1-sample N-D column returned the whole array instead of the sample. dimensions()==0 is the right test.
