----------------------------------------------

> I do not believe that varargs change the definition of JPDL.
> However, I believe that varargs can add more candidate methods to JCS.
> So I believe it is that delta to JCS which must be described. Again, does

I think this all depends on what you intend to implement (or have implemented). 
E.g. JPDL could support a varargs declaration in its <Java parameter 
declaration list>, not sure if you intend to do this or not, since it's non 
standard I can't guess what you are trying to implement, thus it's hard to 
review any patch as it's unclear what the intended behave is, beyond a vague 
"support varargs" statement.



> Derby does not resolve functions bound to methods with varargs.

> Varargs were added in Java 5. It would be nice if Derby let you invoke a 
> function bound to a method with a variable length argument list. The 
> Reference Guide states a small number of restrictions for methods which can 
> be invoked as Derby functions: They must be public, static, and not have 
> arguments which are long datatypes. I see no reason that Derby shouldn't be 
> able to resolve and invoke functions which are bound to methods which don't 
> suffer these limitations but which have variable argument lists.
