> The "CAST function" section of the Derby Reference manual says that Derby 
> supports the casts which were legal in SQL 92. There are a number of casts 
> which are legal in SQL 2003 which Derby does not support. These include the 
> casting of exact numerics to varchar and the casting of inexact numerics to 
> char and varchar. The SQL 2003 rules are defined in part 2 section 6.12 
> (<cast specification>). Derby should support the liberal 2003 casting 
> behavior. See for instance this user feedback from  Bogdan Calmac:
