java.lang.Objectorg.hsqldb.jdbcDatabaseMetaData
Comprehensive information about the database as a whole.
This interface is implemented by driver vendors to let users know the capabilities of a Database Management System (DBMS) in combination with the driver based on JDBCTM technology ("JDBC driver") that is used with it. Different relational DBMSs often support different features, implement features in different ways, and use different data types. In addition, a driver may implement a feature on top of what the DBMS offers. Information returned by methods in this interface applies to the capabilities of a particular driver and a particular DBMS working together. Note that as used in this documentation, the term "database" is used generically to refer to both the driver and DBMS.
A user for this interface is commonly a tool that needs to discover how to
deal with the underlying DBMS. This is especially true for applications
that are intended to be used with more than one DBMS. For example, a tool might use the method
getTypeInfo
to find out what data types can be used in a
CREATE TABLE
statement. Or a user might call the method
supportsCorrelatedSubqueries
to see if it is possible to use
a correlated subquery or supportsBatchUpdates
to see if it is
possible to use batch updates.
Some DatabaseMetaData
methods return lists of information
in the form of ResultSet
objects.
Regular ResultSet
methods, such as
getString
and getInt
, can be used
to retrieve the data from these ResultSet
objects. If
a given form of metadata is not available, the ResultSet
getter methods throw an SQLException
.
Some DatabaseMetaData
methods take arguments that are
String patterns. These arguments all have names such as fooPattern.
Within a pattern String, "%" means match any substring of 0 or more
characters, and "_" means match any one character. Only metadata
entries matching the search pattern are returned. If a search pattern
argument is set to null
, that argument's criterion will
be dropped from the search.
A method that gets information about a feature that the driver does not
support will throw an SQLException
.
In the case of methods that return a ResultSet
object, either a ResultSet
object (which may be empty) is
returned or an SQLException
is thrown.
HSQLDB-Specific Information:
JRE 1.1.x Notes:
In general, JDBC 2 support requires Java 1.2 and above, and JDBC3 requires
Java 1.4 and above. In HSQLDB, support for methods introduced in different
versions of JDBC depends on the JDK version used for compiling and building
HSQLDB.
Since 1.7.0, it is possible to build the product so that
all JDBC 2 methods can be called while executing under the version 1.1.x
Java Runtime EnvironmentTM.
However, some of these method calls require
In a JRE 1.1.x environment, calling JDBC 2 methods that take or return the
JDBC2-only
However, please note that code written in such a manner will not be
compatible for use with other JDBC 2 drivers, since they expect and use
(fredt@users)
int
values that
are defined only in the JDBC 2 or greater version of
ResultSet
interface. For this reason, when the
product is compiled under JDK 1.1.x, these values are defined in
jdbcResultSet
.ResultSet
values can be achieved by referring
to them in parameter specifications and return value comparisons,
respectively, as follows:
dbcResultSet.FETCH_FORWARD
jdbcResultSet.TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY
jdbcResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE
jdbcResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY
ResultSet
, rather than jdbcResultSet
. Also
note, this feature is offered solely as a convenience to developers
who must work under JDK 1.1.x due to operating constraints, yet wish to
use some of the more advanced features available under the JDBC 2
specification.

public boolean allProceduresAreCallable() throws java.sql.SQLException
getProcedures
.
HSQLDB-Specific Information:
Up to and including 1.7.1, HSQLDB does not return any rows from
getProcedures
. However,
allProceduresAreCallable
always returns true
.
This is simply meant to indicate that all users can call all stored
procedures made available by default in a newly created HSQLDB
database.

HSQLDB-Specific Information:
Up to and including 1.7.1, HSQLDB will, by default, throw an exception
for any non-admin user calling
getTables
, while any
admin user can SELECT
from any table. As such, this
method always returns true
. However, if an admin user
grants SELECT
access to SYSTEM_TABLES
to
a non-admin user, then it is possible for that user to be denied
SELECT
access to tables listed when he/she calls
getTables
. This behaviour will be corrected in 1.7.2.

HSQLDB-Specific Information:
Up to and including 1.7.1, this is a synonym for

Sorted high means that NULL
values
sort higher than any other value in a domain. In an ascending order,
if this method returns true
, NULL
values
will appear at the end. By contrast, the method
nullsAreSortedAtEnd
indicates whether NULL

, NULL
values
will appear at the beginning. By contrast, the method
nullsAreSortedAtStart
indicates whether NULL
