Kathey Marsden commented on DERBY-499:
--------------------------------------
It would be good to document the value that BOOLEAN true/false will return
when returned as SMALLINT to pre 10.2 drda clients, and non-Derby clients.
Clarification of getXXX, setXXX and metadata would be good too and is being
discussed on this thread.

Expose BOOLEAN datatype to end users
------------------------------------
Key: DERBY-499
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-499
Project: Derby
Type: New Feature
Components: SQL
Versions: 10.1.1.0
Reporter: Rick Hillegas
Assignee: Rick Hillegas

Veaceslav Chicu started an email thread on 8 August 2005 titled "boolean type".
He was disappointed that Derby doesn't support the ansi BOOLEAN datatype. On closer
inspection, Derby does internally support this type but does not expose this support to
end users.
Derby should let users declare table columns of type BOOLEAN. This should be an
indexable datatype.
