John H. Embretsen commented on DERBY-2255:
------------------------------------------
I tried the patch on Windows XP. I get two continuation "prompts" instead of
one:
ij version 10.3
ij> connect 'jdbc:derby:mydb;create=true';
ij> create table test
> > (a int);
0 rows inserted/updated/deleted
ij> create table
> > test2
> > (b int);
0 rows inserted/updated/deleted
ij>
But it is still useful :)
> ij should indicate that it is waiting for more input in a multi-line
> interactive statement.

> Many users have been confused by the lack of response from ij when they
> forget to end a statement with a semicolon, and believe that Derby is taking
> its sweet time answering their query, while ij is simply waiting for more
> input.
> This issue tries to address this by adding a short "> " prompt to the next
> line after a newline has been entered by the user without ending the
> statement with a semicolon.
