Bryan Pendleton updated DERBY-1490:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: renameColumn_v5_with_schema_test.diff

Attachment renameColumn_v5_with_schema_test.diff differs from the
previous patch proposal only in the addition of a new test that demonstrates
that you can rename a column in a table in the non-current schema by
explicitly specifying a schema name.

That is, the proper syntax for the RENAME COLUMN statement is actually:

  RENAME COLUMN [schema-name.]table-name.column-name TO new-column-name

Thanks Knut Anders for noticing this; I'll fix the documentation in the 
DERBY-2042 patch.

> Provide ALTER TABLE RENAME COLUMN functionality
