Rick Hillegas updated DERBY-3923:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: derby-3923-01-aa-optionalDatatype.diff

Attaching derby-3923-01-aa-optionalDatatype.diff. This patch makes the datatype 
declaration optional for generated columns, per the functional spec for 
DERBY-481. Running tests now.

Touches the following files:

M      java/engine/org/apache/derby/impl/sql/compile/sqlgrammar.jj
M      java/engine/org/apache/derby/loc/messages.xml
M      java/shared/org/apache/derby/shared/common/reference/SQLState.java

Changes the grammar. The grammar changes mean that, for non-generated columns, 
we have to proscribe the absence of a datatype during bind() rather than during 
parse().


M      java/engine/org/apache/derby/impl/sql/compile/AlterTableNode.java
M      java/engine/org/apache/derby/impl/sql/compile/ColumnDefinitionNode.java
M      java/engine/org/apache/derby/impl/sql/compile/CreateTableNode.java
M      java/engine/org/apache/derby/impl/sql/compile/TableElementList.java

Disables the early coercions for UDTs and collations when applied to generated 
columns. Instead, moves these coercions into the logic which binds and 
validates generated columns--at that time we have enough information to bind 
the generation clause and determine its datatype.


M      
java/testing/org/apache/derbyTesting/functionTests/tests/lang/GeneratedColumnsTest.java
M      
java/testing/org/apache/derbyTesting/functionTests/tests/lang/GeneratedColumnsHelper.java

Adds tests.

> According to the ANSI/ISO spec, the datatype is supposed to be optional for 
> columns defined by generation clauses. This elegant shorthand is a stretch 
> goal.
