-457 A FUNCTION OR DISTINCT TYPE CANNOT BE CALLED name SINCE IT IS RESERVED FOR SYSTEM USE

Explanation: The user-defined function or distinct type cannot be created or referenced because the name selected is reserved for use by the system.

A number of names used as keywords are reserved for system use. These names may not be used as user-defined functions or distinct-type-names, even if they are delimited identifiers. These names are:


     =        <         >         >=        <=
     ¬=        ¬>        ¬>
     ALL      AND       ANY       BETWEEN   DISTINCT
     EXCEPT   EXISTS    FALSE     FOR       FROM
     IN       IS        LIKE      MATCH     NOT
     NULL     ONLY      OR        OVERLAPS  SIMILAR
     SOME     TABLE     TRUE      TYPE      UNIQUE
     UNKNOWN


| The names of built-in data types cannot be used as the name of a distinct
| type (for example, CHAR).

System Action: The statement is not executed.

Programmer Response: Select a name for the function or distinct type that is not reserved for system use.

SQLSTATE: 42939
