[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1547?page=comments#action_12434435 ] John H. Embretsen commented on DERBY-1547: ------------------------------------------
No problem... since this is a "time critical" fix, and the sed patterns work (I have not tried the patch yet, though), removing the unnecessary brackets should be optional at this point (I just think it looks clearer without the brackets). So don't let my comment slow down the process to get this fix committed! I have not had time to "interpret" the other patterns fully yet, since I do not know exactly which strings they are supposed to match, and I have other things on my to-do list. But when/if I do, I'll let the community know if I find anything worth mentioning. Thanks for making the patch! > Add svn version number to DatabaseMetaData getDatabaseProductVersion and > getDriverVersion() to improve supportability > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-1547 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1547 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: JDBC > Affects Versions: 10.1.3.2 > Reporter: Kathey Marsden > Assigned To: V.Narayanan > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 10.2.1.0 > > Attachments: DERBY-1547-sed-v1.diff, DERBY-1547-sed-v1.stat, > DERBY-1547-sed.diff, DERBY-1547-sed.stat, DERBY-1547_v1.diff, > DERBY-1547_v1.stat, derbyall_fail.txt > > > getDatabaseProductVersion and getDriverVersion() report only the four digit > Derby version number and not the svn build number.
