Review comment:
       Nit: Consider either wrapping this with a utility method or adding 
inline comments where the nulls are, documenting what parameter they’re for, 
like `dbMeta.getTables(null /* ??? */, null …. )`.
   
   I’d personally use the named function approach. This many nullls (or Boolean 
literals, etc) makes it hard for the reader to grok the function call’s 
signature and therefore what it’s doing. In this case, because you have a good 
variable name, it’s not as difficult to tell what the intended code is. But 
it’s still arguably pretty difficult to look at this and visually assert that 
this is likely correct or what all of the unused parameters are.
   
   
   Given that this code path isn’t exactly hit by any means, I’d go with the 
utility function to wrap this. It could even just return the boolean, as the 
ResultSet is otherwise unused.
