Normally I use the semicolon for statement delimiters in plain SQL
scripts (for DDL, simple DML etc.).
But inside SQL/PL I tend to use % or @ as statement delimiters. But
other people prefer other delimiters.
I know that I can use the CLP option "-td" to specify the delimiter on
the command line, when invoking the script. But this requires me to
look inside the scripts to find the delimiter before I run the script.
It would be nice for the script itself to be able to declare its own
delimiter inside itself, thereby allowing calling scripts to not-care
about which delimiter(s) are used inside of any particular script, and
if the script did not make any such declaration then some default (like
semicolon etc) would apply. Something like "SET STATEMENT_DELIM ITER %".
Someone told me there was something for this in new versions of DB2,
but I cannot find it yet.

In the DB2 doc I just find this:
Statement Termination Character Option (-t):
The -t option tells the command line processor to use a semicolon (;) as
the statement termination character, and disables the backslash (\) line
continuation character.
Note:
This option *cannot* be changed from within the interactive mode. http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infoce...e/r0010410.htm

Knut, It seems you answered a different question than the one that I
asked.
The -t option is not settable *inside* a script (via "update command
options"), according to the docs
..
I'm asking if a script can specify its delimiter inside the file,
rather than via the command-line. I know I can parse the file to find
the delimiter, but it seems a kludge.

It would be great to be able to reverse usage/definition parts in
haskell-way with "where" keyword. Since Python 3 would miss lambda, that
would be extremly useful for creating readable sources.
Usage could be something like:

Hi,
I just discovered that if in an ADO.NET query I use:
"Select * from Invoices Where InvoiceDate BETWEEN StartDate AND EndDate;"
In this case StartDate would be 1st of month and EndDate would be the last
day of the month, e.g. 31/08/2005 (UK DD/MM/YYYY format)
I find that the query is missing off any invoices that were done on the 31st
of the Month, in other words if in the between statement I don't specify a

I was wondering how it may be possible to query 2 MySQL databases using
one query statement from PHP.
For instance: SELECT database1.tableA.field1 UNION
database2.tableB.field2.
My concern is, when connecting to MySQL (or sending a query), I only
specify 1 database connection resource ID. How does that play out when
connecting to 2 databases?

Hi!
The words "expression" and "statement" are often used in C99 and C-

words with respect to C.
Can somebody provide a sharp defintion of "expression" and

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
