Re-enable the storing of java objects in the database
-----------------------------------------------------

         Key: DERBY-651
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-651
     Project: Derby
        Type: Bug
  Components: SQL  
    Reporter: Rick Hillegas


Islay Symonette, in an email thread called "Storing Java Objects in a table" on 
October 26, 2005 requests the ability to store java objects in the database.

Old releases of Cloudscape allow users to declare a column's type to be a 
Serializable class. This feature was removed from Derby because the syntax was 
non-standard. However, most of the machinery to support objects serialized to 
columns is still in Derby and is even used in system tables. We need to agree 
on some standard syntax here and re-expose this useful feature. Some subset of 
the ANSI adt syntax, cumbersom as it is, would do.
