Kim Haase commented on DERBY-1920:
----------------------------------
For the cdevstandards files, I was trying to be consistent with the other
titles in that section:
* ALTER TABLE
* Calling functions and procedures
* CLOB and BLOB
* Cursors
* DECIMAL max precision
* Dynamic SQL
* Expressions on LONGs
* Information schema
* NOT NULL characteristic
* Transactions
* Stored routines and PSM
* Unique constraints and nulls
* XML data types and operators
Also, in fact, this is a list of *non*standard features, so we'd have to make
each title "Nonstandard feature: xxx" or something like that.
Also, see what happens in the main "Derby and standards" topic with them as
they are: they're all pulled into that page, except for the long last topic.
I've been puzzling over this. It's really kind of silly to have all these
different tiny topics when what you really do want is just the bullet list in
the "Derby and standards" topic. The only glitch is that really long last
topic.
What do you think is the best solution here?

>
> 1) Many of the topic titles are vague.
> Examples -
> a) Almost all of the titles for the built-in function topics do not indicate
> that the topic is about a "function".
> The word "function" should be added to all of the reference topics (In the
> Reference Manual) that discuss the built in functions
> b) Almost all of the titles for the data type topics do not indicate that the
> topic is about a data type.
> The words "data type" should be added to all of the reference topics (In the
> Reference Manual) that discuss the data types
> c) Some of the SQL statement topic titles do not include the word "statement"
> in the title and they should.
> 2)Some of the topics use the same title, but discuss very different things.
> Each topic title in the Derby documentation should be
> unique.
> Examples -
> LOCK TABLE statement in the Reference Manual
> (http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/dev/ref/rrefsqlj40506.html)
> and in the Tuning Guide
> (http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/dev/tuning/ctunoptimz11775.html)
> This is just one of several examples.
