JdbcModelReader merges metadata between tables

                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DDLUTILS-246
             Project: DdlUtils
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core (No specific database)
    Affects Versions: 1.0
         Environment: Java 1.5, Oracle 8/9/10/11, DB2 8/9, MSSQL 2000/2005, 
possibly others

When reading the columns for a table, JdbcModelReader relies on metadata given 
by DatabaseMetaDataWrapper.

Given two tables 

TABLE FOO_MATIC (COL1 INTEGER)
TABLE FOOTMATIC (COL2 INTEGER, COL3 INTEGER)

the returned columns for table FOO_MATIC is (COL1, COL2, COL3). No need to say, 
that subsequent queries on FOO_MATIC fail due to nonexistent columns COL2 and 
COL3.

The reason for this behavior is that the underscore is interpreted as a 
wildcard character in DatabaseMetaData.getColumns(String,String), so both 
tables match the pattern FOO_MATIC.

The workaround I use is to re-check the table name in 
JdbcModelReader.readColumns(DatabaseMetaDataWrapper,String)

 while (columnData.next())
{
    if (columnData.getString("TABLE_NAME").equals(tableName)) 
    {
        Map values = readColumns(columnData, getColumnsForColumn());

        columns.add(readColumn(metaData, values));
    }
}
