Knut Anders Hatlen updated DERBY-6075:
--------------------------------------
Attachment: d6075-2a-bindExpression.diff
Attaching d6075-2a-bindExpression.diff, which is built on top of the 1a patch.
The patch changes the signatures of
- ValueNode.bindExpression(FromList, SubqueryList, Vector)
- ValueNode.bindExpression(FromList, SubqueryList, Vector, boolean)
- JavaValueNode.bindExpression(FromList, SubqueryList, Vector)
- all overrides of the above methods
to use java.util.List instead of java.util.Vector.
The patch only changes method signatures. The actual arguments passed to the
bindExpression() methods are still of type java.util.Vector.
All the regression tests ran cleanly with the 1a and the 2a patches.
> Use modern collections in impl/sql/compile
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DERBY-6075
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6075
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 10.10.0.0
> Reporter: Knut Anders Hatlen
> Assignee: Knut Anders Hatlen
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: d6075-1a-CollectNodesVisitor.diff,
> d6075-2a-bindExpression.diff

>
> The code in the org.apache.derby.impl.sql.compile package predates the Java
> Collections Framework and uses old-style collections like java.util.Vector
> and java.util.Hashtable. Since the old-style collection classes are used in
> many method signatures, it's difficult to use modern collection classes when
> adding new code.
> I suggest we switch to using interfaces (like java.util.List and
> java.util.Map) instead of specific classes in the signatures, so that we have
> more flexibility in choosing the right collection class for the job.
> Only changing the signatures would allow us to continue using Vector and
> Hashtable, since they implement the interfaces. However, I think it would be
> good to switch to ArrayList and HashMap in a second step. The instances in
> impl/sql/compile are not shared between threads, so we don't need the
> synchronization provided by the old-style classes. Switching to
> unsynchronized classes may make compilation slightly faster.
