Detailed Description

provides comprehensive information about the database as a whole.

Many of the methods here return lists of information in the form of com::sun::star::sdbc::XResultSet objects. You can use the normal com::sun::star::sdbc::XRow (or com::sun::star::sdb::XColumn) methods such as com::sun::star::sdbc::XRow::getString() and com::sun::star::sdbc::XRow::getInt() to retrieve the data from these XResultSets. If a given form of metadata is not available, these methods should throw a com::sun::star::sdbc::SQLException. After calling one of the getXXX() methods, one can check whether that value is NULL with the method com::sun::star::sdbc::XRow::wasNull(). In the text only "(may be `NULL`)" is mentioned for this case.

Some of these 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 VOID, that argument's criteria will be dropped from the search.

A com::sun::star::sdbc::SQLException will be thrown if a driver does not support a metadata method. In the case of methods that return an XResultSet, either an XResultSet (which may be empty) is returned or a SQLException is thrown.
