[jira] Created: (DERBY-725) NULLIF and CASE expressions section in reference manual contains two stale paragraphs.

NULLIF and CASE expressions section in reference manual contains two stale paragraphs.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: DERBY-725
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-725
     Project: Derby
        Type: Bug
  Components: Documentation  
    Versions: 10.1.2.1    
    Reporter: Daniel John Debrunner
    Priority: Trivial


The two paragraphs below from 10.1 ref manual, page 78 in pdf can be removed.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You do not need to use the CASE expression for avoiding NullPointerExceptions when a
nullable column becomes a method receiver.

If the value of the instance specified in an instance method invocation is null, the result of
the invocation is null (SQL NULL). However, you still might need to use the CASE
expression for when a nullable column is a primitive method parameter.
