Preserve keyword case

Some users prefer that the original case of SQL keywords be preserved, for example: System.out.println(CCJSqlParserUtil.parseStatements("select * from sysdatabases").toString());

Desired behavior: Optionally (or by some other means) preserve keyword case, for example print: select * from sysdatabases

System: JSqlParser version 3.1 (latest) Java 8

So may we close this one?

Additionally, you have the original SQL. There the case is not attached.

As I said, the deparsers could be changed in a way, to make some case changes on used keywords.

This could be the start of some pretty printing stuff within the deparsers.

I don’t think, the request you filed at javacc will have any influence on this. The grammar of JSqlParser itself uses this tokens and build an object hierarchy from this. The case of object names is preserved, but when you use a toString or a deparser, the keywords do not come from the accepted tokens, but from string constants like “SELECT”.

One solution here would be to write or adapt the deparsers to be able to use upper case or lower case keywords.

You could file a PR.
