bytecode

843793Jan 22 2002 — edited Jul 11 2002
Is anybody seriously considering any changes to the bytecode to support generic run-time type checking, or are you all committed to making it bytecode-compatible by preprocessing out to the existing Java syntax?

Or are you all too drunk to care?

TAG using JSON value might be more flexible.

This would then allow template based code generators (eg ) to automatically identify which tables need to be combined together to create a specific Transactional API (XAPI).  (eg an API that must work with >1 tables)

Tags for table columns, constraints, etc. would also be useful.

Great Mike!
It really should be done with JSON syntax. It allows to create different kinds of tags in a single 'tag column', like:
[...]TAGS ('{Use:Transactional, SensitiveData:false, Version1.0:MatheusDBA, Version2.0:AnotherDBA}');


Or even tags hierarchies/subtypes... Anyway, it's way more flexible.
Thanks for this insight!

Exactly... I just used some kind of objects for this example... but I believe it can apply for any king of object, including schemas... like (using Mike's contribution):
CREATE USER USER_EXAMPLE TAGS ('{Use:AdHocReports, Accountable:InternalBusinessTeam}');

This would definitely be useful.
