I would very much doubt it... ALTER TABLE is absent from many JDBC data
sources, including our "beloved" Hypersonic SQL.
You don't really want your app server issuing potentially destructive
DDL, do you? You can picture the scene: somebody mistakenly deploys a
mangled deployment descriptor, and the app server promptly sees fit to
drop half the tables in the production database. Hey, it worked in the
test system! :-)
