Tom Barber commented on OODT-460:
---------------------------------
I work with similar issues in my day job and we have a dialect layer that
dictates what certain database supports and doesn't that then allows the
software to create the correct SQL for the database, I would suggest a simlar
setup here that allows people to plugin different database dialects when they
want to support a different database, and a "generic" dialect for anything
thats not supported.

> Key: OODT-460
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OODT-460
> Project: OODT
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: file manager
> Affects Versions: 0.3
> Environment: none
> Reporter: Brian Foster
> Fix For: 0.7
>
>
> It appears when support was added for BooleanQueries we lost support with
> MySQL.
> Either a INTERSECT substitute which is supported across the board can be used
> or maybe just turn DataSourceCatalog into OracleDataSourceCatalog and then
> create a MySqlDataSourceCatalog (this way each can be further customized to
> use custom statements for each to gain speed improvements)... then possible
> find some happy medium command for INTERSECT and have DataSourceCatalog use
> that -- in other words, this issue will split DataSourceCatalog into 3
> classes:
> DataSourceCatalog : generic data source catalog (not neccessarily fast or
> pretty, but works for all SQL DBs)
> OracleDataSourceCatalog : customized for speed and use with Oracle
> specifically
> MySqlDataSourceCatalog : customized for speed and use with MySQL specifically
