[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1659?page=comments#action_12434702 ]
Andreas Korneliussen commented on DERBY-1659:
---------------------------------------------
I have just a minor comment on the doc: I have been testing this feature, and found that descrbie
also can be used for describing views.
ij> show views;
TABLE_SCHEM |TABLE_NAME |REMARKS
------------------------------------------------------------------------
MYPP |V1 |
1 row selected
ij> describe mypp.v1;
COLUMN_NAME |TYPE_NAME|DEC&|NUM&|COLUM&|COLUMN_DEF|CHAR_OCTE&|IS_NULL&
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
C |INTEGER |0 |10 |10 |NULL |NULL |NO
1 row selected
Therefore, I propose that the doc is modified to say that it can describe views, and the syntax
of the describe command could i.e be:
describe <view_name>|<table_name>
> Document describe and show tables functionality
