Class TyrexDatabaseMetaDataImpl

java.lang.Object
  extended bytyrex.resource.jdbc.xa.TyrexDatabaseMetaDataImpl
All Implemented Interfaces:
java.sql.DatabaseMetaData

final class TyrexDatabaseMetaDataImpl
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.sql.DatabaseMetaData

This is a implementation of java.sql.DatabaseMetaData that returns Tyrex implementations of java.sql.Connection (getConnection()) and java.sql.ResultSet (various get methods). This is done so that the actual connections can never be accessed directly so that they can be pooled (tyrex.jdbc.ServerDataSource and tyrex.jdbc.xa.XADataSourceImpl).

This class is thread safe.

Gets a description of the access rights for each table available in a catalog. Note that a table privilege applies to one or more columns in the table. It would be wrong to assume that this priviledge applies to all columns (this may be true for some systems but is not true for all.)

Parameters:
catalog - a catalog name; "" retrieves those without a catalog; null means drop catalog name from the selection criteria
schemaPattern - a schema name pattern; "" retrieves those without a schema

                           throws java.sql.SQLException
Gets a description of the user-defined types defined in a particular schema. Schema-specific UDTs may have type JAVA_OBJECT, STRUCT, or DISTINCT.

Only types matching the catalog, schema, type name and type criteria are returned. They are ordered by DATA_TYPE, TYPE_SCHEM and TYPE_NAME. The type name parameter may be a fully-qualified name. In this case, the catalog and schemaPattern parameters are ignored.

Each type description has the following columns:

  1. TYPE_CAT String => the type's catalog (may be null)
  2. TYPE_SCHEM String => type's schema (may be null)
  3. TYPE_NAME String => type name
  4. CLASS_NAME String => Java class name
  5. DATA_TYPE String => type value defined in java.sql.Types. One of JAVA_OBJECT, STRUCT, or DISTINCT
  6. REMARKS String => explanatory comment on the type

Note: If the driver does not support UDTs, an empty result set is returned.

Specified by:
getUDTs in interface java.sql.DatabaseMetaData
Parameters:
catalog - a catalog name; "" retrieves those without a catalog; null means drop catalog name from the selection criteria
schemaPattern - a schema name pattern; "" retrieves those without a schema
typeNamePattern - a type name pattern; may be a fully-qualified name
types - a list of user-named types to include (JAVA_OBJECT, STRUCT, or DISTINCT); null returns all types
Returns:
ResultSet - each row is a type description
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs
