Kathey Marsden commented on DERBY-499:
--------------------------------------

For metadata.java, you may want to avoid  additional canons because it would 
mean that you would also have to update the bumpversion target.  (The output of 
this test changes with every new version).  It would best I think  if the 
difference can be handled programatically in the test.

In terms of when this should be addressed,  my personal opinion is that it is  
never good to have test failures for any significant length of time.   When do 
you expect to submit your next patch?


> Expose BOOLEAN datatype to end users

> 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.
