DB2Dialect.getCurrentTimestampSQLFunctionName() uses Oracle syntax
------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: HHH-1753
         URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-1753
     Project: Hibernate3
        Type: Bug

  Components: core  
    Versions: 3.1.3    
 Environment: Hibernate 3.1.3, DB2 UDB Express-C 8.1 on Windows XP Professional SP2
    Reporter: Carey Evans
    Priority: Minor


The DB2Dialect class overrides Dialect.getCurrentTimestampSQLFunctionName() to return "sysdate". However, DB2 supports the standard "current_timestamp" value, not the new value, which appears to be from Oracle:

db2 => select sysdate from sysibm.sysdummy1
SQL0206N  "SYSDATE" is not valid in the context where it is used.
SQLSTATE=42703
db2 => select current_timestamp from sysibm.sysdummy1

It looks to me like the method should be removed from the DB2Dialect class.
