----------------------------------------------
Within the engine I think this will work:
org.apache.derby.iapi.util.IdUtil.normalToDelimited
> Alter Column ... NULL ignores double quotes around column name

> ' is not a column in the target table., SQL State: 42X04, Error Code: -1
> Hi:
> I think I have isolated a bug involving the use of double quotes to define a
> column name. Here s the SQL to reproduce the bug, followed by the error
> message generated by the final SQL statement. In order to make the bug go
> away, eliminate all use of double quotes in the SQL statements below. Note
> that the identical alter statement succeeds before the insert, and fail
> after. I have spent a long time trying to isolate this problem, so please
> take a look.

> Hi Geoff, I agree, that is definitely a bug. Your script reproduces
> the problem for me, on the current Derby trunk.
> It appears that AlterTableConstantAction.validateNotNullConstraint
> is internally generating and executing a statement of the form:
> select count(*) from tab where not (col is not null)
> The code which generates this SQL staement is not properly enclosing
> the column name in double quotes, as you noticed, so the compiler
> converts the column name to upper case, and gets the no-such-column error.
> Can you open a problem report in Jira so that we can track this down
> and get it fixed?
