Dag H. Wanvik commented on DERBY-6565:
--------------------------------------
I have looked at this issue, and it seems that the problem is that the rewrite
of the ROW_LOCATION function in the query optimization phase of the SELECT node
into a ProjectRestrictNode just isn't prepared for being part of an UPDATE
statement. So, it is a mini-project to implement ROW_LOCATION for UPDATE: a)
Modify the query tree re-write in the optimization phase to handle the
simultaneous presence of UPDATE and ROW LOCATION, b) modify the code
generation, and c) possibly some changes to the run-time result sets to
accommodate that an update result set may also contain a WindowResultSet.
