Rick Hillegas updated DERBY-481:
--------------------------------
Attachment: derby-481-07-ab-noSQLinRoutines.diff
Attaching derby-481-07-ab-noSQLinRoutines.diff. This is identical to the
previous patch except that it adds negative tests for MAX, MIN, and COUNT
aggregates in generation clauses. Tests run cleanly for me. Committed at
subversion revision 709415.

> Satheesh has pointed out that generated columns, a SQL 2003 feature, would
> satisfy the performance requirements of Expression Indexes (bug 455).
> Generated columns may not be as elegant as Expression Indexes, but they are
> easier to implement. We would allow the following new kind of column
> definition in CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE statements:
> columnName GENERATED ALWAYS AS ( expression )
> If expression were an indexableExpression (as defined in bug 455), then we
> could create indexes on it. There is no work for the optimizer to do here.
> The Language merely has to compute the generated column at INSERT/UPDATE time.
