Why is RAISERROR misspelled? Or is it not?
- by Jason
Why isn't RAISERROR spelled RAISEERROR? Where is the second E? I could understand if it were some ancient keyword length constraint, but I wouldn't expect it to be a nine-character limit.
Is RAIS or RROR a technical word such that "raise-error" is just a mis-reading? Are its (immediate) origins in a different language?
I've searched Google but not finding much on the subject.
