HI, all
I am testing quoting identifiers in NB, and I am using
DatabaseMetaData to see if a table exists.
I create a table called test. In SquirrelSQL I see that it is called
TEST because Derby auto-upper-cased it, as expected.
Then I run DatabaesMetaData.getTables(null, null, "test", null);
and it returns no rows.
If create a table, *with quotes*, called 'quotedTable'.
and then call DatabaseMetadata.getTables(null, null, "quotedTable", null);
this returns a row, with the table name as 'quotedTable'.
Shouldn't DBMD auto-upper-case the identifier just like regular SQL?
No. See the javadoc for DMD.getTables():
"tableNamePattern - a table name pattern; must match the table name as
it is stored in the database"
