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

Hi Bryan,
               I read the Derby reference manual and Derby tuning materials to 
some extent to get the scope for this project and got to know that all the 
statistics that are logged into the logQueryPlan are stored in the XPLAIN 
tables as well.One problem we had earlier was to find out all the statistic 
data that can occur for a query.I studied the code for XPLAIN tables to some 
extent and found that there are all the statistic variables that are stored in 
the tables.So we can grab them from the source code.So it will be very easy to 
get the values from the XPLAIN tables rather that retrieving them from the 
derby.log file.

For example see the following package to understand the above desiption :
org.apache.derby.iapi.sql.execute.xplain

FYI : Read the "XPLAIN style tables" in Derby Reference Manual for more 
information.

Thank you.

> 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.
