Mamta A. Satoor updated DERBY-5294:
-----------------------------------

    Description: 
Triggers created prior to 10.9 release will continue to read all the columns 
from trigger table even after database has been upgraded to 10.9 and higher. 
Which in another words means that such triggers will not benefit from work done 
for DERBY-1482.

With DERBY-1482 (which went in 10.9 codeline), triggers will read only the 
columns needed by the triggering sql and firing triggers. But this applies only 
to triggers created in 10.9 and higher. Any triggers created prior to 10.9 will 
not be able to take advantage of DERBY-1482 because those triggers do not keep 
the information about the trigger action columns. Currently, the users will 
have to drop and recreate the triggers which use the REFERENCING CLAUSE and 
were created prior to 10.9 to take advantage of DERBY-1482.

The alternative to manual drop and recreate of such triggers can be explored as 
part of this jira. Couple options are
1)UPDATE sql should detect that the trigger does not have information about the 
trigger action columns and hence it should make the trigger collect that 
information.
2)At the time of upgrade, when we mark all the SPSes invalid, detect the 
triggers which do not have the information about the trigger action columns and 
make those triggers collect that information.
3)Enhance ALTER TABLE COMPRESS to detect the triggers which do not have the 
information about the trigger action columns and make those triggers collect 
that information. With this option, users will still have to manually do ALTER 
TABLE COMPRESS to fix the triggers but atleast they won't have to get the 
original trigger definitions and drop and recreate the triggers using those 
original trigger definitions.

10.9 currently does not have central place where the trigger will go and 
collect the information about trigger action columns. We do have code in ALTER 
TABLE DROP COLUMN to collect the trigger action column info but it will 
probably better to have such a code in TriggerDescriptor so it can be used by 
the approach taken to fix this jira.

Note that without the fix for this jira, the triggers created prior to 10.9 
will work just fine after upgrade to 10.9 and higher but they will not be able 
to prevent reading of columns that are not necessary for the triggering sql and 
firing triggers

        Summary: Enhance compress table to drop and recreate the triggers. This 
will enable pre-10.9 triggers (after hard upgrade to 10.9) to read only the 
reqiored columns from the trigger table.  (was: Triggers created prior to 10.9 
release will continue to read all the columns from trigger table even after 
database has been upgraded to 10.9 and higher)
