 * 2001.5.20 Claudio Valderrama: Stop null pointer that leads to a crash,
 * caused by incomplete yacc syntax that allows ALTER DOMAIN dom SET;
 *
 * 2001.07.06 Sean Leyne - Code Cleanup, removed "#ifdef READONLY_DATABASE"
 *                         conditionals, as the engine now fully supports
 *                         readonly databases.
 * December 2001 Mike Nordell - Attempt to make it C++
 *
 * 2001.5.20 Claudio Valderrama: Stop null pointer that leads to a crash,
 * caused by incomplete yacc syntax that allows ALTER DOMAIN dom SET;
 * 2001.5.29 Claudio Valderrama: Check for view v/s relation in DROP
 * command will stop a user that uses DROP VIEW and drops a table by
 * accident and vice-versa.
 * 2001.5.30 Claudio Valderrama: alter column should use 1..N for the
 * position argument since the call comes from SQL DDL.
 * 2001.6.27 Claudio Valderrama: DDL_resolve_intl_type() was adding 2 to the
 * length of varchars instead of just checking that len+2<=MAX_COLUMN_SIZE.
 * It required a minor change to put_field() where it was decremented, too.
 * 2001.6.27 Claudio Valderrama: Finally stop users from invoking the same option
 * several times when altering a domain. Specially dangerous with text data types.
 * Ex: alter domain d type char(5) type varchar(5) default 'x' default 'y';
 * Bear in mind that if DYN functions are addressed directly, this protection
 * becomes a moot point.
 * 2001.6.30 Claudio Valderrama: revert changes from 2001.6.26 because the code
 * is called from several places and there are more functions, even in metd.c,
 * playing the same nonsense game with the field's length, so it needs more
 * careful examination. For now, the new checks in DYN_MOD should catch most anomalies.
 * 2001.7.3 Claudio Valderrama: fix Firebird Bug #223059 with mismatch between number
 * of declared fields for a VIEW and effective fields in the SELECT statement.
 * 2001.07.22 Claudio Valderrama: minor fixes and improvements.
 * 2001.08.18 Claudio Valderrama: RECREATE PROCEDURE.
 * 2001.10.01 Claudio Valderrama: modify_privilege() should recognize that a ROLE can
 *   now be made an explicit grantee.
 * 2001.10.08 Claudio Valderrama: implement frb_sysflag enum values for autogenerated
 *   non-system triggers so DFW can recognize them easily.
 * 2001.10.26 Claudio Valderrama: added a call to the new METD_drop_function()
 *   in DDL_execute() so the metadata cache for udfs can be refreshed.
 * 2001.12.06 Claudio Valderrama: DDL_resolve_intl_type should calculate field length
 * 2002.08.04 Claudio Valderrama: allow declaring and defining variables at the same time
 * 2002.08.04 Dmitry Yemanov: ALTER VIEW
 * 2002.08.31 Dmitry Yemanov: allowed user-defined index names for PK/FK/UK constraints
 * 2002.09.01 Dmitry Yemanov: RECREATE VIEW
 * 2002.09.12 Nickolay Samofatov: fixed cached metadata errors
 * 2004.01.16 Vlad Horsun: added support for default parameters and 
 *   EXECUTE BLOCK statement
