SQL92Identifier

An SQL92Identifier is a dictionary object identifier that conforms to the rules of SQL-92. SQL-92 states that identifiers for dictionary objects are limited to 128 characters and are case-insensitive (unless delimited by double quotes), because they are automatically translated into uppercase by the system. You cannot use reserved words as identifiers for dictionary objects unless they are delimited. If you attempt to use a name longer than 128 characters, SQLException X0X11 is raised.

defines keywords beyond those specified by the SQL-92 standard (see ).

Example -- the view name is stored in the -- system catalogs as ANIDENTIFIER CREATE VIEW AnIdentifier (RECEIVED) AS VALUES 1 -- the view name is stored in the system -- catalogs with case intact CREATE VIEW "ACaseSensitiveIdentifier" (RECEIVED) AS VALUES 1
