Kim Haase commented on DERBY-3959:
----------------------------------
Thanks very much, Rick.
I guess that means that in the ALTER TABLE topic, the following statement under
"Adding columns" is not quite true:
"The syntax for the column-definition for a new column is the same as for a
column in a CREATE TABLE statement."
The sentence after that is
"This means that a column constraint can be placed on the new column within the
ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN statement."
I suppose I should change the two sentences to something like this:
"The syntax for the column-definition for a new column is almost the same as
for a column in a CREATE TABLE statement. This syntax allows a column
constraint to be placed on the new column within the ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN
statement."
