[jira] [Commented] (DERBY-5629) Queries with guarded null Parameter fail

["Kristian Waagan (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5629?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13215558#comment-13215558 ] 

Kristian Waagan commented on DERBY-5629:
----------------------------------------

I see that "values NULL IS NULL" fails [1]. Isn't that supposed to be supported?
It also fails to parse when put in other places, for instance in a WHERE clause [2].

[1] ij> values NULL IS NULL;
ERROR 42X01: Syntax error: Encountered "IS" at line 1, column 13.

[2] ij> select 1 from sys.systables where NULL IS NULL;
ERROR 42X01: Syntax error: Encountered "NULL" at line 1, column 35.

>             Project: Derby
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: JDBC
>    Affects Versions: 10.8.2.2
>         Environment: java version "1.6.0_30"
> Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_30-b12)
> Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 20.5-b03, mixed mode, sharing)
>            Reporter: Bernard

> Some test cases in the attached Maven project fail where a null parameter is passed in or a null value is coded in the query.
> In the context of this issue, a recently closed issue appears to be relevant:
> "Add support for setObject(<arg>, null)"
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1938
> Some test cases in the attached project are Hibernate JPQL cases where Hibernate takes care of generating the SQL queries.
> I thought it was appropriate to make a few cases not only one so that the issue gets a little more test coverage.
> I also assume that issue DERBY-1938 aims to fix what we can see in these cases.
> This has become a major issue because it causes failure of a minimalistic JPQL query as shown at
> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_Persistence_Query_Language#Examples
> that shows a JPQL query:
> SELECT a FROM Author a WHERE :lastName IS NULL OR LOWER(a.lastName) = :lastName
