Richard N. Hillegas commented on DERBY-5728:
--------------------------------------------
Attaching Bug5728.java. This program demonstrates that you can achieve what you
want if you slightly change your syntax to:
{noformat}
CAST(:LASTNAME AS VARCHAR(128)) IS NULL
{noformat}
I'm assuming that JPQL turns :LASTNAME into a ? parameter. The other databases
should all support that syntax.
Hope this helps.

> The following query fails:
> SELECT ID FROM CUSTOMER WHERE ((NULL IS NULL) OR (NAME = NULL))
> Why this is an issue?
> At least two major Java ORMs, Hibernate JPA and EclipseLink JPA have isues
> with generating SQL for trivial JPQL queries such as:
> select object(c) from Customer c where ((name: is null) or (c.name = name:))
> where name: is a parameter
> For why this is a fundamental issue, please see a minimalistic JPQL query at
> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_Persistence_Query_Language#Examples
> Part of this has already been resolved by issue "Add support for
> setObject(<arg>, null)"
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1938
> Please see EclipseLink and Hibernate test cases for verification.
