The group_concat(x,'') aggregate function returns NULL when all inputs are empty strings. The correct return should be an empty string. SELECT typeof(group_concat(x,'')) FROM (SELECT '' AS x UNION ALL SELECT ''); This problem appears to have existed in the code since the group_concat() function was initially added to SQLite in version 3.5.4, 2007-12-14. | ||||
