-------------------------------------

             Summary: IJ's SHOW command cannot handle some legal schema and 
table names
                 Key: DERBY-6541
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6541
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Tools
    Affects Versions: 10.10.1.1
            Reporter: Dyre Tjeldvoll
            Priority: Minor


The IJ command SHOW can take a schema or table name as input. E.g. SHOW 
TABLES/INDEXES IN <schema name>
SHOW INDEXES FROM <table name>

But the command fails if the schema or table name is a quoted identifier, which 
is permitted for schema and table names. E.g.:

ij> create schema "schema_identifier";
0 rows inserted/updated/deleted
ij> set schema "schema_identifier";
0 rows inserted/updated/deleted
ij> create table "table_identifier"(i int);
0 rows inserted/updated/deleted
ij> show schemas;
