Description: JDBC driver: getIndexInfo() returns quotes around quoted
column names
Details:

JDBC3 driver 8.2-505 and JDBC4 driver 8.3dev-600.

The DatabaseMetaData.getIndexInfo() method returns quotes around quoted
column names, unlike the getColumns() method. To reproduce run the following
statement in a database named "test" and the "public" schema:

create table "CUSTOMER" ("CUSTOMER_ID" int not null primary key);

connect to the database and execute the following code:

// java.sql.Connection conn
DatabaseMetaData dmd = conn.getMetaData();
// print the columns
ResultSet rs = dmd.getColumns("test", "public", "CUSTOMER", "%");
try {
while (rs.next()) {
System.out.println(rs.getString("COLUMN_NAME"));
}
} finally {
rs.close();
}
// print the primary key columns
rs = dmd.getIndexInfo("test", "public", "CUSTOMER", true, true);
try {
while (rs.next()) {
System.out.println(rs.getString("COLUMN_NAME"));
}
} finally {
rs.close();
}

The code prints

CUSTOMER_ID
"CUSTOMER_ID"

while it should probably have printed

CUSTOMER_ID
CUSTOMER_ID
