TinkerPop problem with multiple filters using and/or

Question

I was filtering multiple properties and fetching a node, so if had multiple filter joined with and and or. 2 work fine but from the 3rd it seems to crash.

Below is a simplified demonstration of the error.

With filter

gremlin> g.V().filter(has("name", "marko"))
==>v[1]

gremlin> g.V().filter(has("name", "marko")).and().filter(has("name", "marko"))
==>v[1]

gremlin> g.V().filter(has("name", "marko")).and().filter(has("name", "marko")).and().filter(has("name", "marko"))
java.util.ConcurrentModificationException
Type ':help' or ':h' for help.
Display stack trace? [yN]

Without filter

gremlin> g.V().has("name", "marko")
==>v[1]

gremlin> g.V().has("name", "marko").and().has("name", "marko")
==>v[1]

gremlin> g.V().has("name", "marko").and().has("name", "marko").and().has("name", "marko")
java.util.ConcurrentModificationException
Type ':help' or ':h' for help.
Display stack trace? [yN]

dummy-name is something that does not exist. still crashes with a different error

gremlin> g.V().hasLabel("dummy-name").filter(has("name", "a").or().has("name", "b").or().has("name", "c"))
    java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException
    Type ':help' or ':h' for help.
    Display stack trace? [yN]y
    java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException

when connecting to NEO4J and using filter it throws me

    "{0}: {1}".format(status_code, data["status"]["message"]))
gremlin_python.driver.protocol.GremlinServerError: 597: None

Am I writing the wrong query? or is this a bug?

Version: Gremlin 3.3.1

this seems to work `g.V().filter(__.or(has("name", "marko"), has("name", "marko"), has("name", "marko")))` but then I cannot do `a` and `b` or `c` and `d` — Srinath Ganesh, Sep 04 '18 at 10:58

I don't know why multiple and() conditions don't work offhand, though I suppose they should, so I created an issue in JIRA for that: TINKERPOP-2029

This does work however:

gremlin> g.V().and(filter(has("name", "marko")), filter(has("name", "marko")), filter(has("name", "marko")))
==>v[1]

or more simply:

gremlin> g.V().and(has("name", "marko"), has("name", "marko"), has("name", "marko"))
==>v[1]

In your comment on the question you wrote that you want to really do a and b or c and d - that seems possible with this approach:

gremlin> g.V().or(and(has('name','marko'),has('age',29)),and(has('name','josh'),has('age',32)))
==>v[1]
==>v[4]

or in this case more simply as:

gremlin> g.V().or(has('name','marko').has('age',29),has('name','josh').has('age',32))
==>v[1]
==>v[4]

yes its working. Robert, suggested a similar in gremlin group. — Srinath Ganesh, Sep 05 '18 at 11:05
