Mike Matrigali commented on DERBY-532:
--------------------------------------
looking at latest patch, with changes to move the checking out of store and not
special casing the types of btree
I am wondering if the changes to the following files are still needed. I have
not reviewed the changes in
latest patch yet, just was not expecting changes to these files.:
M java\engine\org\apache\derby\iapi\store\access\SortObserver.java
M
java\engine\org\apache\derby\impl\store\access\sort\UniqueWithDuplicateNullsMergeSort.java
M java\engine\org\apache\derby\impl\store\access\sort\MergeSort.java
M
java\testing\org\apache\derbyTesting\unitTests\store\T_SortController.java
If they are still needed can you give a short explanation of why, to help with
my review.

> In many situations it is desirable to have constraints checking taking place
> only at transaction commit time, and not before. If e.g. there is a chain of
> foreign key constraints between tables, insert statements have to be ordered
> to avoid constraint violations. If foreign key references are circular, the
> DML has to be split into insert statements and subsequent update statements
> by the user.
> In other words, with deferred constraints checking, life is much easier for
> the user. Also it can create problems with softwares such as
> object-relational mapping tools that are not prepared for statement ordering
> and thus depend on deferred constraints checking.
