> Per this email from Lance Andersen, JDBC4 spec lead:
> "The JDBC spec requires DatabaseMetaData to be fully implemented.
> For non DatabaseMetaData methods not implement and not required,  a 
> SQLException must be thrown and in the case of JDBC 4.0 
> SQLFeatureNotSupportedException must be thrown.
> Any drivers which fail to implement DatabaseMetaData methods  and throw an 
> Exception would not pass the conformance tests.
> HTH
> Lance"
> These metadata calls need to be modified to return either true/false for 
> boolean methods, or an empty result set for methods that return result sets.
> The client.am.DatabaseMetadata.getSuperTypes() has a good example of how to 
> generate an empty result set:
> String sql = "SELECT CAST(NULL AS VARCHAR(128)) AS TYPE_CAT," +
>                 "CAST(NULL AS VARCHAR(128)) AS TYPE_SCHEM," +
>                 "VARCHAR('', 128) AS TYPE_NAME," +
>                 "CAST(NULL AS VARCHAR(128)) AS SUPERTYPE_CAT," +
>                 "CAST(NULL AS VARCHAR(128)) AS SUPERTYPE_SCHEM," +
>                 "VARCHAR('', 128) AS SUPERTYPE_NAME " +
>                 "FROM SYSIBM.SYSDUMMY1 WHERE 1=0 WITH UR ";
