Subject: Re: about the initialization of DB2Dictionary

Hi Amy,
I am thinking about taking the if (isDB2ZOSV8xOrLater())  checking out
from
createIndexIfNecessary() method.
I think all DB2 product supports unique index creation (will double
check
that),
so you might try this to see if index is auto created for you.

This kind of changes requires regression verification against various
versions of DB2 before committing such changes.

The null pointer avoidance is checked-in under OPENJPA-555.
