Jack Klebanoff commented on DERBY-355:
--------------------------------------
The TIMESTAMPADD and TIMESTAMPDIFF functions are
JDBC escape functions, they are not like the other
functions in the list of built-ins and they do not
have equivalent built-in functions. It is probably
good to document TIMESTAMPADD and TIMESTAMPDIFF in
the list of built-in functions, so that users can
find them, but the documentation must stress that
they are only accessible using the JDBC escape
function syntax. Perhaps we should put an asterisk
beside them in the list of built-in functions.
What if we put a note in each of the function topics
mentioning this? I hesitate to put in an asterisk on
each of the function titles, since it may be confused
as syntax. Would that work?
I think that that would work. Another possibility is to use some symbol
that is not used by SQL instead of an asterisk.
