Re: Derby and character set encodings

2007-09-06 Thread Ken Frank

Thanks David for sending this.

Let me note a few questions:

1.  when one creates a new database,
is the database created with a certain encoding that will be used ?

And if so, is that encoding that of the locale I am in when I run
the create database commands or is it utf-8 always ?
(for example, for one of the Japanese locales of Solaris, the encoding of it
is euc-jp)

or could it be that of the encoding of the locale the actual dbase server
is started in ?  (which might be java's view of the users locale/encoding
which would be I think the same as the OS locale user is in)

I saw this from derby docs:
"To support users in many different languages, Derby's SQL parser 
understands all Unicode characters and allows any Unicode character or 
number to be used in an identifier."


but I don't know if it means that there is no concept of an encoding
for a database itself or not.

I think with Oracle for example, there is an argument to create database
that lets one specify the encoding of it.



2.  The locale the user is in when starting derby server -
what things are affected by that - ie encoding of dbase, messages to
user (if translated), time, date, etc ?
(vs user needing to set separate variables or properties)

3.  I think its allowed for identifiers like database names,
table and column names, to have non ascii in them, if proper
quoting is used when referring to them  ?


Thanks - Ken

Now it is working fine.

ipv6 and Network Server hostname

for IPv4 we listen on host 0.0.0.0 in case a machine has multiple NIC 
cards, so we accept connections from all NICs. 
(I believe this was for windows only.   is that correct?)

Is there an equivelent ip for IPv6?

Re: Derby and character set encodings

2007-09-06 Thread Mike Matrigali

This is mixing a lot of things up.  I also may use the wrong
terminology here.

Character set encodings really only come into play with tools like
ij, and import getting the string from the environment into derby.  The more
standard interaction is using jdbc to load a java string into derby.
At that level we don't do anything with encodings.

We happen to use a modified utf8 to store stuff to disk, and this is
not configurable.  But no user interface should depend on this encoding, 
and Derby could change this storage in the future.


Logically all strings at runtime are converted to standard java char.

Before 10.3 we always used standard java string compare which did a 
numerical comparison of the unicode value of chars to arrive at 
ordering.  That is still the default.  In 10.3 an option was added to
set the territory based collation when the database is created such that 
comparison is dependent on the territory of the database.  For this 
standard java

rule based Collator interfaces are used.  This is documented in the latest
derby release.

jdbc metadata getProcedures does not return newly created proc/funcs

2007-09-06 Thread Mike Norman

latest Derby:
  Apache Derby
  10.3.1.4 - (561794)
  Apache Derby Network Client JDBC Driver
  10.1.2.1

I created 2 very simple stored proc/funcs:

package test;

import java.sql.SQLException;

public class SPHelper {

public static void ProcNoArgs() throws SQLException {
}
   
public static String FuncNoArgs() throws SQLException {
return "gidday";
}
} 

CREATE PROCEDURE PROC_NO_ARGS() 
LANGUAGE JAVA 
EXTERNAL NAME 'test.SPHelper.ProcNoArgs' 
PARAMETER STYLE JAVA
NO SQL;
CREATE FUNCTION FUNC_NO_ARGS() RETURNS VARCHAR(100)
LANGUAGE JAVA
EXTERNAL NAME 'test.SPHelper.FuncNoArgs'
PARAMETER STYLE JAVA
NO SQL
RETURNS NULL ON NULL INPUT;

Now, when I try to get the metadata for them, nothing is returned:

String catalogPattern = "";
String schemaPattern = "%";
String procedurePattern = "%NO_ARGS";
List tmpProcs
try {
DatabaseMetaData databaseMetaData = getDatabaseMetaData(connection);
procsInfo = databaseMetaData.getProcedures(catalogPattern,
schemaPattern, procedurePattern);
// did we get a hit?
if (procsInfo != null) {
tmpProcs = new ArrayList();
while (procsInfo.next()) {
String actualCatalogName = procsInfo.getString(PROCS_INFO_CATALOG); 
//
index 1
String actualSchemaName = procsInfo.getString(PROCS_INFO_SCHEMA); //
index 2
String actualProcedureName = procsInfo.getString(PROCS_INFO_NAME); 
//
index 3
short procedureType = procsInfo.getShort(PROCS_INFO_TYPE); // index 
8
DbStoredProcedure dbStoredProcedure;
if (procedureType == 
java.sql.DatabaseMetaData.procedureReturnsResult)
{
dbStoredProcedure = new DbStoredFunction(actualProcedureName);
}
else {
dbStoredProcedure = new DbStoredProcedure(actualProcedureName);
}
if (actualCatalogName != null && actualCatalogName.length() > 0) {
dbStoredProcedure.setCatalog(actualCatalogName);
}
if (actualSchemaName != null && actualSchemaName.length() > 0) {
dbStoredProcedure.setSchema(actualSchemaName);
}
tmpProcs.add(dbStoredProcedure);
}
procsInfo.close();
}
catch (SQLException sqlException) {
throw new IllegalStateException("failure retrieving Stored Procedure
metadata",
sqlException);
}

No exceptions are thrown but the list is empty - an empty result set was
returned.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Hi  Mike,

I think the problem is the datatype of the function's return value. The 
VARCHAR datatype needs a length. This should work:

CREATE FUNCTION FUNC_NO_ARGS() RETURNS VARCHAR( 100 )
