[jira] Updated: (DERBY-979) NullPointerException in store when using holdable resultset to get next tuple on a deleted table

     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-979?page=all ]

Mike Matrigali updated DERBY-979:
---------------------------------

    Component: Store

> NullPointerException in store when using holdable resultset to get next tuple on a deleted table
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
>          Key: DERBY-979
>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-979
>      Project: Derby
>         Type: Bug

>   Components: Store
>  Environment: All
>     Reporter: Andreas Korneliussen
>     Priority: Minor

>
> Derby uses table intent locks to prevent a table from being dropped while there is an open cursor on it.
> However, for holdable cursors, the lock is released after the commit. This allows a drop table command to drop the table.  The next call to ResultSet.next then get a NullPointerException from the store module.
> A potential fix, could be to handle this situation in store, and to give a meaningful error message.
> Transaction history:
> T1: select * from table1 
> T1: cursor.next()
> T1: commit
> T2: drop table table1
> T2: commit
> T3: cursor.next()..
> Result: T3 get NullPointerException.
> To reproduce: Add the following testcase to ConcurrencyTest.java (see DERBY-934) (hopefully someone commits those tests soon)
>   /**
>      * Test that as long as an cursor is open on a table, no
>      * other transaction can delete the table.
>      */

>         ResultSet rs = s.executeQuery("select * from t1");
>         rs.next();
