----------------------------------------------------------------

Here's a sample script which pokes a custom AST printer into the compiler:

connect 'jdbc:derby:memory:dummy;create=true';

create table t( a int );

create procedure setInspector( visitorClassName varchar( 32672 ) )
language java
parameter style java
modifies sql data
external name 'ASTInspector.setInspector'
;

call setInspector( 'XmlASTPrinter' );

select * from t;

The custom printer writes the parsed, bound, and optimized trees as xml into 
derbyAST.xml. You can then pull that printout into your favorite tool for 
browsing xml. I use Firefox for this. Firefox lets me collapse and expands 
elements in this printout. Since each node in an AST is printed as a separate 
element, this is very handy for revealing the structure of a plan and for 
hiding the details you are not interested in.

call setInspector( null );

> It would be nice to be able to tell the compiler to use user-written 
> formatters for pretty-printing Derby's abstract syntax trees. For instance, 
> it would be nice to be able to plug in the AST printers attached to 
> DERBY-791, including the Eclipse-based tree grapher written by Kay Röpke.
