[jira] Updated: (DERBY-4161) SQL Roles - Clarify documentation regarding the SET ROLE

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4161?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Kim Haase updated DERBY-4161:
-----------------------------

    Attachment: cdevcsecureroles.html
                DERBY-4161-2.diff

Thanks for those suggestions, Dag. I'm attaching DERBY-4161-2.diff (and cdevcsecureroles.html), which makes the changes you suggest and also changes some of the preceding text to the third person so there is no longer an abrupt shift between second and third person ("you" vs. "the user"). That had been bothering me.

Please let me know if further corrections are needed. Thanks!

> After discussing this issue on the mailing list, it has been agreed that the documentation regarding the usage of SQL roles needs to be clarified.
> Namely, it should be clearer that a session does not have a role set by default and that as such, a SET ROLE must be issued to enable a specific role.
> Further along the path, we may want to have the ability of setting a default role but for now and for the release of 10.5 this is the shortest and best course to follow.
> Kim had already suggested an addition to the documentation on the list; maybe she'd like to take on this issue?
