Danoja Dias updated DERBY-4555:
-------------------------------
    Attachment: addNewSystemProcedure.diff

I added new system procedure with the new argument. When I run repro.java with 
the new procedure, I got an exception like this. 
java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: 
'SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_IMPORT_TABLE_SKIP_HEADER_LINES' is not recognized as a 
function or procedure.

Diff is attached as addNewSystemProcedure.diff
Is there any thing I missed? 

> Expand SYSCS_IMPORT_TABLE to accept CSV file with header lines

> The SYSCS_IMPORT_TABLE (and SYSCS_IMPORT_DATA) function allow import of data 
> from external resources. In general, they can process CSV files that created 
> with various tools - with one exception: the header line.
> While there is no accepted standard, most tools will include a header line in 
> the CSV file with column names. This convention is supported in Excel and 
> many other tools.
> My Request: extend the SYSCS_IMPORT_TABLe and SYSCS_IMPORT_DATA (and other 
> related procedures) to include an extra indicator for the number of header 
> lines to be ignored.
> As an extra bonus it will be help is the SYSCS_IMPORT_DATA will accept column 
> names (instead of column indexes) in the 'COLUMNINDEXES' arguments. E.g., it 
> should be possible to indicate COLUMNINDEXES of '1,3,sales,5,'. This feature 
> will make it significantly easier to handle cases where the external input 
> files is extended to include additional columns.
