Hi Kristian,

Thanks for your detailed explanation of this bizarre and confusing behavior. I can imagine that this inconsistency is very frustrating to our users.

Each of the options you are considering will create backward compatibility problems for some applications. I agree with Knut that silent behavior changes are worse than noisy ones. I think that we could talk ourselves into an incompatible behavior change if the javadoc explicitly says that the behavior is undefined.

However, I don't see much value in moving from one inconsistent behavior to another. If we want to tackle this confusion, then I would recommend that we define the behavior explicitly in the javadoc and make all of the DataSources conform to the defined behavior.

So my advice would be to not touch the code yet. Instead, file a JIRA based on your detailed explanation of the problem. Then let the community discuss what the best solution is.

Hi Rick,

Finally took the time to create a Jira for this :)
See DERBY-4719 [1].


Regards,
Thanks.
