             Summary: Extend the Table Functions java interface to pass more 
query context information from Derby
                 Key: DERBY-6117
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6117
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 10.8.3.0
            Reporter: David Vyvyan


General requirement is to extend the Table Functions java interface (through 
RestrictedVTI or another interface) and pass more context information from 
Derby to Table Functions - esp in query execution phase.

Greater urgency is required for the first 2 items below, especially the ability 
to access the original SQL which was available with VTIs. This is critical to 
the GaianDB project - we extract HINTs from the query (where we pass meta data 
like user credentials), and also extract full original complex predicate 
expressions (involving functions etc - which cannot be expressed with a 
Restriction) - to push on in our query prorogation...

In order of importance + simplicity:
--------------------------------------------------
1 - Original SQL (this used to be available with VTIs through VTIEnvironment 
for both compilation and execution phases)
2 - Name of function that was called

3 - User Info (ID, etc) - (this can currently be passed in the SQL hint)
4 - Richer predicate expressions (incl functions, etc)
5 - Context within Join query (e.g. inner or outer table, join type)
6 - Other Query Plan information
7 - Anything else...?
