Knut Anders Hatlen updated DERBY-137: ------------------------------------- Derby Info: [Patch Available] Patch is available and ready for review. Thanks! > Derby metadata always returns JDBC 2 result sets, even when JDBC 3 result > sets are required. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-137 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-137 > Project: Derby > Type: Bug > Components: JDBC > Reporter: A B > Assignee: Knut Anders Hatlen > Priority: Critical > Attachments: derby-137-v1.diff, derby-137-v1.stat > > BACKGROUND: > Derby's implementation of the JDBC class java.sql.DatabaseMetaData returns > result sets that are defined by the SQL queries in > impl/jdbc/metadata.properties. > PROBLEM: > The current queries in the metadata.properties file are for JDBC 2 only. The > queries do NOT account for the result sets as defined by JDBC 3, and thus > even when JDBC 3 result sets should be returned, a user will get metadata > correlating to the JDBC 2 standard. > Just for reference, here are a couple of examples of changes that have been > made from JDBC 2 to JDBC 3: > 1) getColumns(): JDBC 2 specifies 18 columns, JDBC 3 specifies 22 (the four > extra columns are SCOPE_CATALOG, SCOPE_SCHEMA, SCOPE_TABLE, and > SOURCE_DATA_TYPE). > 2) getTables(): JDBC 2 specifics 5 columns, JDBC 3 specifies 10 (the five > extra columns are TYPE_CAT, TYPE_SCHEM, TYPE_NAME, SELF_REFERENCING_COL_NAME, > and REF_GENERATION). > 3) getProcedureColumns(): JDBC 2 specifies that DATA_TYPE is a "short"; JDBC > 3 specifies that DATA_TYPE is an "int". > NOTES: > JDBC 3 needs to be backward compatible with JDBC 2, so it should be okay to > just modify metadata.properties to return JDBC 3 result sets... -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
