Mike Matrigali updated DERBY-1482:
----------------------------------
I just read back a bit and see the issue about SERIALIZATION across
client/server. Do you know what JIRA caused this behavior change in 10.6? I
am not sure if it is even possible to do a proper
soft/hard upgrade on anything in a system catalog that could properly take
account of client/server
mismatches.
I would lean toward documenting that we don't support this access, it seems
like we should only
support using the standard jdbc data dictionary interfaces.
I was not aware of this new client/server behavior. One of the reasons for the
current design in this fix, was to avoid the complication of creating new
format id's and subclasses. And as you point out even
if we do this we can't guarantee anything other than a format id not found
error on the backward client since in the worst case it can't have any new code
to handle new stuff in hard upgraded servers.

> Suppose I have 1) a table "t1" with blob data in it, and 2) an UPDATE trigger
> "tr1" defined on that table, where the triggered-SQL-action for "tr1" does
> NOT reference any of the blob columns in the table. [ Note that this is
> different from DERBY-438 because DERBY-438 deals with triggers that _do_
> reference the blob column(s), whereas this issue deals with triggers that do
> _not_ reference the blob columns--but I think they're related, so I'm
> creating this as subtask to 438 ]. In such a case, if the trigger is fired,
> the blob data will be streamed into memory and thus consume JVM heap, even
> though it (the blob data) is never actually referenced/accessed by the
> trigger statement.
> For example, suppose we have the following DDL:
> create table t1 (id int, status smallint, bl blob(2G));
> create table t2 (id int, updated int default 0);
> create trigger tr1 after update of status on t1 referencing new as n_row
> for each row mode db2sql update t2 set updated = updated + 1 where t2.id =
> n_row.id;
> Then if t1 and t2 both have data and we make a call to:
> update t1 set status = 3;
> the trigger tr1 will fire, which will cause the blob column in t1 to be
> streamed into memory for each row affected by the trigger. The result is
> that, if the blob data is large, we end up using a lot of JVM memory when we
> really shouldn't have to (at least, in _theory_ we shouldn't have to...).
> Ideally, Derby could figure out whether or not the blob column is referenced,
> and avoid streaming the lob into memory whenever possible (hence this is
> probably more of an "enhancement" request than a bug)...
