[jira] [Commented] (DERBY-5160) NullPointerException when adding column without specifying type

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5160?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13012382#comment-13012382 ] 

Knut Anders Hatlen commented on DERBY-5160:
-------------------------------------------

This is a regression in 10.5.1.1. Earlier releases correctly raised a syntax error:

ij version 10.4
ij> connect 'jdbc:derby:db;create=true';
ij> create table t(x int);
0 rows inserted/updated/deleted
ij> alter table t add column y;
ERROR 42X01: Syntax error: Encountered "" at line 1, column 26.
