> Now that we have added AwareVTI and VTIContext to the public api, it would be
> good to document how to use them. Perhaps we could add a "Writing a
> context-aware table function" subtopic under the "Programming Derby-style
> table functions" topic in the Developer's Guide.
> As an example, the new subsection could use ArchiveVTI together with the
> script which is part of the 2014-02-02 comment on DERBY-6117.
> Context-aware table functions are useful when you need to describe a family
> of results which have the following properties:
> 1) Each result in the family has a shape which is determined by a different
> table.
> 2) There may be several results associated with a given table. In addition to
> having the same shape, the sub-family of results differ from one another
> based on some variables which cannot be represented as ? parameters in a
> SELECT statement.
