Rick Hillegas updated DERBY-3069: --------------------------------- Attachment: derby-3069-01-varargs-ab.diff Attaching a second rev of this patch: derby-3069-01-varargs-ab.diff. This fixes a corner case in the previous rev: In Java 5, a no argument invocation of a method can end up bound to a varargs overload. So, for instance, if you declare public static String sampleVarargs( String... args ) then, barring an ambiguity, the following invocation will resolve to it: stringResult = sampleVarargs(); This patch lets you bind no-arg functions/procedures to vararg static public methods. > Derby does not resolve functions bound to methods with varargs. > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-3069 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3069 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: SQL > Affects Versions: 10.0.2.0, 10.0.2.1, 10.1.1.0, 10.1.2.1, 10.1.3.1, > 10.2.1.6, 10.2.2.0, 10.3.1.4 > Reporter: Rick Hillegas > Assignee: Rick Hillegas > Attachments: derby-3069-01-varargs-aa.diff, > derby-3069-01-varargs-ab.diff, z.java, z.sql > > > Varargs were added in Java 5. It would be nice if Derby let you invoke a > function bound to a method with a variable length argument list. The > Reference Guide states a small number of restrictions for methods which can > be invoked as Derby functions: They must be public, static, and not have > arguments which are long datatypes. I see no reason that Derby shouldn't be > able to resolve and invoke functions which are bound to methods which don't > suffer these limitations but which have variable argument lists. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
