Kathey Marsden commented on DERBY-5843:
---------------------------------------
Removing a toString() method might be a bit tricky as it is not always invoked
with the toString() method explicitly but rather would also be called by just
adding the object to an output stream (probably the derby.log) by just adding
+ csd where csd is a CharacterStreamDescriptor object.
Such verbose output can occur with some of the debug properties, e.g:
http://wiki.apache.org/db-derby/DebugPropertiesTmpl
I don't know that that this particular object is ever printed with the debug
options or a good way to check if it is. Also I know where toString() exist I
have found them convenient when looking at values in the debugger. I think I
would be a bit wary of removing toString() methods.
Just my opinion though.
