> The "CAST function" section of the Derby Reference manual says that Derby
> supports the casts which were legal in SQL 92. There are a number of casts
> which are legal in SQL 2003 which Derby does not support. These include the
> casting of exact numerics to varchar and the casting of inexact numerics to
> char and varchar. The SQL 2003 rules are defined in part 2 section 6.12
> (<cast specification>). Derby should support the liberal 2003 casting
> behavior. See for instance this user feedback from Bogdan Calmac:
