------------------------------------------------
Hi Bryan,
Thanks for the link !! I will look in to it.
I had read Postgres's graphical explain plan
(http://www.postgresonline.com/journal/index.php?/archives/27-Reading-PgAdmin-Graphical-Explain-Plans.html)
today to get an idea about the tool to be developed.
Derby doesn't has a GUI, so where can we display the visual explain of a query?

> Key: DERBY-4587
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4587
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: SQL, Tools
> Reporter: Bryan Pendleton
> Assignee: Bryan Pendleton
>
> I think it would be great to see some work in the area of tools for helping
> with the analysis of complex query execution. Quite frequently, users of
> Derby have trouble comprehending (a) how their query is being translated
> into a query plan by the optimizer, and (b) what the execution-time resource
> usage of the various parts of the query is.
> There are low-level features in Derby which capture this information and
> record it, such as logQueryPlan, and the XPLAIN tables, but there is a lot
> of opportunity for designing higher-level tools which can process the query
> plan and execution statistics information and present it in a more
> comprehensible fashion.
