Hiranya Jayathilaka commented on DERBY-3610:
--------------------------------------------
In the proposed solution we don't remove the message 42Y03. This message is
being referred to by many classes and it's probably not a good idea to remove
it. That will cause many small code changes all over the code base. So I
suggest simply adding two new messages and making some changes local to the
PrivilegeNode class to tackle the reported issue. I think we also have to
update the corresponding test cases in the GrantRevokeTest class and
GrantRevokeDDLTest class. Thoughts?
> Confusing error message when granting execute privilege
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DERBY-3610
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3610
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Newcomer, SQL
> Reporter: Dag H. Wanvik
> Priority: Trivial
>
> When the wrong keyword is used in a grant execute privilege statement, the
> error message
> leads one the believe the identifier is neither a procedure or a function,
> when in deed it is one of the two.
> > create function bc(i int) returns int language java parameter style java
> > external name 'java.lang.Integer.bitCount' no sql;
> > grant execute on procedure bc to foo;
> ERROR 42Y03: 'BC' is not recognized as a function or procedure.
> > grant execute on function bc to foo;
> (works)
> The reason is that the error message is generic. It would be better to have
> an error message for each case.
