Trivial Description
Just some small comments about the Javadoc for the org.apache.derby.iapi.store.access.Qualifier interface, that made it hard for me to understand. (see http://db.apache.org/derby/javadoc/engine/)
1. In examples 1a through 4 there looks to be a missing [] in the array initialization. In example 1a, instead of:
qualifier = new Qualifier[3]; // 3 AND clauses
I think it should be:
qualifier = new Qualifier[3][]; // 3 AND clauses
Similar for 2 through 4.
2. The formatting is messed up as the text for the examples appears as one long hyperlink in the seeAlso section.
3. This pseudo-code doesn't look right. I don't think there should be a test on qualifier.negateCompareResult() at the outer level?
if (qualifier.negateCompareResult())
{
compare_result =
row[(qualifier.getColumnId())].compare(
qualifier.getOperator(),
qualifier.getOrderable(),
qualifier.getOrderedNulls(),
qualifier.getUnknownRV())
if (qualifier.negateCompareResult()) {
compare_result = !(compare_result);
}
