Andrew McIntyre updated DERBY-1164:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: 1164_5_andrew.diff

Attaching an updated patch for this issue, which fixes the two NPEs found by 
Yip and myself and adds a few missed masters.

I'd love it if anyone else has the time to kick the tires on this a little 
more, but either way I'm planning on committing this in the next couple of days.

New users migrating from mysql are familiar with commands 'show tables' and 
'describe'  to respectively display all permanent tables, and show fields in a 
given table. These are not standard sql, but I suggest to implement them only 
in the IJ tool for user-friendliness.
As suggested in db-dev, using DatabaseMetaData should provide the necessary 
query strings.
