[jira] [Created] (DERBY-6643) ALTER TABLE columnAlteration syntax
needs fixing
Kim Haase created DERBY-6643:
--------------------------------
Summary: ALTER TABLE columnAlteration syntax needs fixing
Key: DERBY-6643
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6643
Project: Derby
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Documentation
Affects Versions: 10.11.0.0
Reporter: Kim Haase
Assignee: Kim Haase
Priority: Minor
Knut Anders Hatlen points out in a comment on DERBY-6609 that the columnAlteration syntax in the ALTER TABLE statement topic is not quite correct. It is possible to set the data type to BLOB or CLOB, in addition to VARCHAR and VARCHAR FOR BIT DATA.
Also, for VARCHAR FOR BIT DATA, he notes, "the length argument is on the wrong spot. It should be columnName SET DATA TYPE VARCHAR ( integer ) FOR BIT DATA, rather than columnName SET DATA TYPE VARCHAR FOR BIT DATA( integer ).
