-------------------------------------
Summary: Using a reserved word as a column alias in a select
statement.
Key: EMPIREDB-209
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/EMPIREDB-209
Project: Empire-DB
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Core
Affects Versions: empire-db-2.4.2
Reporter: Shaun Forbes
Priority: Minor
I believe it's possible in sql to use a reserved word as an alias in a select
statement if it's correctly quoted (it is for the databases I've tested anyway).
Checking for and quoting reserved word aliases does not currently appear to be
implemented.
To overcome this limitation I've added an method to the DBDatabaseDriver class
to add the alias and perform any required quoting and altered the DBAliasExpr
class to delegate the adding of the alias to the DBDatabaseDriver class.
The character I'm using for quoting is determined from the
getIdentifierQuoteString() method of the database connection metadata class,
and I've used the detectQuoteName(String name) method in DBDatabaseDriver to
determine if the alias needs to be quoted.
Patches available if required.
