With a very brief look at the patch, I did not see any code to disallow the new syntax with soft upgrade. Since users need to be able to return to a previous version with soft upgrade I think it is important that they not be able to go to 10.2 and then create a view that won't work when they return to 10.1 Dan put upgrade tests under java/testing/org/apache/derbyTesting/upgradeTests. Unfortunately, and perhaps dangerously, the upgrade tests are not automated as part of our suite yet because we'll need to check in old versions of derby and manage the class path issues. Kathey
