Here is a new version of the patch. The call to TypeCategory() is gone, and in its place is a way to force quotes on output, using FORCE. And, instead of warning about a nullstring going into a NOT NULL column, there is a new LITERAL capability that does not compare the column with the null string and loads the value in literally.
The patch still needs more testing, but I have reviewed the patch and it
looks good to me.
Bruce,
Thankyou for taking my work and adding all these user-friendly aspects to it. Although it's a rather prosaic feature, it will make a lot of people happy and make our path to World Domination easier ;-)
I haven't had any startling revelations on the subject of appropriate keywords.
I will provide some tests for the regression suite some time in the next few weeks.
cheers
andrew
