Bryan Pendleton commented on DERBY-4587:
----------------------------------------
Your latest patch looks good to me; I will commit it.
If you haven't already done so, I think you could file separate sub-task Jira
entries for the following ideas that were brought up during the reviews:
1) Investigate character set and encoding issues.
2) Investigate security and PrivilegedActionException handling
3) Redesign the tool API for simplicity
4) Allow exporting of multiple query plans in a single operation
These issues seem sufficiently complicated that they would be easier
to track in separate Jira entries.
> Add tools for improved analysis and understanding of query plans and

> I think it would be great to see some work in the area of tools for helping
> with the analysis of complex query execution. Quite frequently, users of
> Derby have trouble comprehending (a) how their query is being translated
> into a query plan by the optimizer, and (b) what the execution-time resource
> usage of the various parts of the query is.
> There are low-level features in Derby which capture this information and
> record it, such as logQueryPlan, and the XPLAIN tables, but there is a lot
> of opportunity for designing higher-level tools which can process the query
> plan and execution statistics information and present it in a more
> comprehensible fashion.
