Knut Anders Hatlen commented on DERBY-4087:
-------------------------------------------
I think truncating already seen subtrees is a good idea as it (a) reduces the
size of the printed tree and (b) makes it easier to see that two trees are
actually the same one. Doing it always is fine with me. As you mentioned, the
current output is often inconsistent, and I find it unlikely that anyone rely
on the exact output, so I don't see a need for a knob. It is debug output,
after all. If someone does need a stable, parsable output, DERBY-791 sounds
like a better fit.

> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Miscellaneous, SQL
> Reporter: Dag H. Wanvik
> Priority: Trivial
>
> Currently, the printing is often inconsistent:
> - some subtrees not printed
> - wrong indentation due to missing newlines, or lacking level increments
> - redundant printing of subtrees (AST is really a DAG, would be nice to print
> only once and then refer back to show aliasing)
> - some items printed twice due to inconsistent usage of pattern
