determineRightEvaluationStep

public static QueryEvaluationStep determineRightEvaluationStep(LeftJoin join,
 QueryEvaluationStep prepareRightArg,
 QueryValueEvaluationStep joinCondition,
 Set<String> scopeBindingNames)

This function determines the way the right-hand side is evaluated. There are 3 options:

1. No join condition:
The right-hand side should just be joined with the left-hand side. No filtering is applied.

2. The join condition can be fully evaluated by the left-hand side:

SELECT * WHERE {
        ?dist a dcat:Distribution .
 ?dist dc:license ?license .

 OPTIONAL {
        ?a dcat:distribution ?dist.

     FILTER(?license = invalid input: '<'http://wiki.data.gouv.fr/wiki/Licence_Ouverte_/_Open_Licence>)
        }
}

In this case, pre-filtering can be applied. The right-hand side does not have to evaluated when the join condition evaluates to false.

3. The join condition needs right-hand side evaluation:

SELECT * WHERE {
 ?dist a dcat:Distribution .

        OPTIONAL {
        ?a dcat:distribution ?dist .
                ?a dct:language $lang .

                FILTER(?lang = eu-lang:ENG)
        }
}

In this case, the join condition can only be evaluated after the right-hand side is evaluated (post-filtering).
