Wrong functionality of auto-generated keys support
--------------------------------------------------

                 Key: DERBY-3609
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3609
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: JDBC
    Affects Versions: 10.3.2.1
         Environment: N/A
            Reporter: Oleksandr Alesinskyy


Currently support for autogeneration key retrieval in JDBC driver 
(java.sql.Statement) relies on IDENTITY_VAL_LOCAL function, which means that 
for multi-row INSERT... VALUES statements as well as for INSERT...AS SELECT 
statement wrong result are returned (key generated of last executed single-row 
INSERT...VALUES statement or NULL otherwise). While this functionality is 
documented in the Reference description of  IDENTITY_VAL_LOCAL it is not so 
clearly documented in "autogenerated keys" subchapter of JDBC 3.0 Features (the 
only vague hint is "Calling ResultSet.getMetaData on the ResultSet object 
returned by getGeneratedKeys produces a ResultSetMetaData object that is 
similar to that returned by IDENTITY_VAL_LOCAL.").

Moreover, as far as I understant it diverge from JDBC specification. IMHO or 
this functionality shal lbe implemented completely, or exception shall be 
thrown if for given statement functionality is not supported (e.g. "Feature not 
supported").
