Rick Hillegas reassigned DERBY-499:
-----------------------------------

    Assignee:     (was: Rick Hillegas)

Unassigning myself from this issue. If someone wants to tackle this in the 
future, please consult DERBY-1029. In order to implement BOOLEAN, you will need 
to:

1) Get the BOOLEAN datatype into the DRDA spec
2) Secure the community's permission for a major release which will let you 
change the behavior of implicit and explicit BOOLEAN casts.


> Expose BOOLEAN datatype to end users

> Veaceslav Chicu started an email thread on 8 August 2005 titled "boolean 
> type". He was disappointed that Derby doesn't support the ansi BOOLEAN 
> datatype. On closer inspection, Derby does internally support this type but 
> does not expose this support to end users.
> Derby should let users declare table columns of type BOOLEAN. This should be 
> an indexable datatype.
