We could use the existing format we have for > variable length arrays. > For backward compatibility, we'd need to support the current mechanism. Also, > you'd no longer be allowed to transition an existing table to/from being > immutable. I think the best approach would be to introduce a new IMMUTABLE > keyword and use it like this: > {code} > CREATE IMMUTABLE TABLE ... > {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
