Bar, in the documentation above, for  ODBC escape sequences  (those are used
in JDBC as well),  there is a space between curly brace and literal type,
and space after the literal type and before ' .

Like, { d '2001-01-01 10:10:10' } has space after '{' and after 'd'.

Maybe the documented form with spaces works with your patch , as well .
however there are no tests that prove it ,i.e all tests have no spaces in
the literals
