Knut Anders Hatlen commented on DERBY-4442:
-------------------------------------------

Thanks, Dag. That's good news. I ran derbyall and suites.All with 
always_prn.diff, and only one test failed: 
DistinctTest.testDistinctInsertWithGeneratedColumn(). That test case is 
intended to fail if DERBY-3 is fixed, according to its comments, so that should 
be fine:

         * See DERBY-3. If that bug is fixed, the first query after the comment
         * below will fail.

I'll try to clean up the patch and get it into a committable shape.

> In contrast to generated column, which are evaluated when the next row from 
> the result set to be inserted, currently default values and identity columns 
> are generated "early", that is as part of avaluating the subquery (SELECT or 
> VALUES as the case may be). 
> This does not currently cause a user visible bug in Derby, but it lies behind 
> DERBY-3 and the effect Bryan observed in DERBY-4.
> Additionally, "early" computation has given rise to much special handling and 
> ensuing bugs, cf. DERBY-1644, DERBY-4413, DERBY-4419, DERBY-4425 and others.
> DERBY-4397 requires this fix for correct behaviour with INSERT.
