Knut Anders Hatlen commented on DERBY-672:
------------------------------------------
Hi Rick,
I saw you made this change in revision 1400083:
/** Get the SQL name of the aggregate */
public String getSQLName()
- throws StandardException
{
if ( isUserDefinedAggregate() )
{
- return ((UserAggregateDefinition)
uad).getAliasDescriptor().getQualifiedName();
+ try {
+ return ((UserAggregateDefinition)
uad).getAliasDescriptor().getQualifiedName();
+ } catch (StandardException se)
+ {
+ return aggregateName;
+ }
}
else { return aggregateName; }
}
Could you add a comment explaining what could cause exceptions here and why
it's OK to ignore those exceptions?
Thanks.

> Nicolas Dufour in an email thread titled "functions and list" started on
> November 2, 2005 requests the ability to create user defined aggregates.
> This functionality used to be in Cloudscape. It was disabled presumably
> because it was considered non-standard. However, most of the machinery needed
> for this feature is still in the code. We should re-enable user defined
> aggregates after we agree on acceptable syntax.
