Laura Stewart commented on DERBY-1949:
--------------------------------------

If the issue in the summary is still a problem, then it needs to be tracked as an open issue. If the issue in the original summary was not really an issue but led to the discovery of a related issue, then changing the summary to match the real issue is correct and the status should be fixed... whether it is a code or documentation fix. I don't think that we need to have a separate category for docs.

> Documentation for the locate function does not clearly explain the behavior when first parameter is empty string, e.g. 
> values locate('','A')
> results in 1, and 
> values locate('', 'ABC', 5)
> returns 5, but the documentation does not clearly explain why this is so.
