DatabaseMetaData

java.lang.Object
- com.mysql.jdbc.DatabaseMetaData

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.sql.DatabaseMetaData, java.sql.Wrapper

Direct Known Subclasses:

DatabaseMetaDataUsingInfoSchema, JDBC4DatabaseMetaData
```
public class DatabaseMetaData
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.sql.DatabaseMetaData
```
JDBC Interface to Mysql functions
This class provides information about the database as a whole.

Many of the methods here return lists of information in ResultSets. You can use the normal ResultSet methods such as getString and getInt to retrieve the data from these ResultSets. If a given form of metadata is not available, these methods show throw a SQLException.

Some of these methods take arguments that are String patterns. These methods 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.

    18. ORDINAL_POSITION int => the ordinal position, starting from 1. A value of 0 is returned if this row describes the procedure's return value.
    19. IS_NULLABLE String => ISO rules are used to determine the nullability for a column.
      
      YES --- if the parameter can include NULLs
      
      NO --- if the parameter cannot include NULLs
      
      empty string --- if the nullability for the parameter is unknown

```
    Retrieves a description of the system and user functions available in the given catalog.
    Only system and user function descriptions matching the schema and function name criteria are returned. They are ordered by FUNCTION_CAT, FUNCTION_SCHEM, FUNCTION_NAME and SPECIFIC_ NAME.
    Each function description has the the following columns:
    1. FUNCTION_CAT String => function catalog (may be null)
    2. FUNCTION_SCHEM String => function schema (may be null)
    3. FUNCTION_NAME String => function name. This is the name used to invoke the function
    4. REMARKS String => explanatory comment on the function
    5. FUNCTION_TYPE short => kind of function:
      
      functionResultUnknown - Cannot determine if a return value or table will be returned
      functionNoTable- Does not return a table
      functionReturnsTable - Returns a table
    6. SPECIFIC_NAME String => the name which uniquely identifies this function within its schema. This is a user specified, or DBMS generated, name that may be different then the FUNCTION_NAME for example with overload functions
    A user may not have permission to execute any of the functions that are returned by getFunctions
    Specified by:
    
    getFunctions in interface java.sql.DatabaseMetaData
    
    Parameters:
    catalog - a catalog name; must match the catalog name as it is stored in the database; "" retrieves those without a catalog; null means that the catalog name should not be used to narrow the search
    schemaPattern - a schema name pattern; must match the schema name as it is stored in the database; "" retrieves those without a schema; null means that the schema name should not be used to narrow the search
    functionNamePattern - a function name pattern; must match the function name as it is stored in the database
    
    Returns:
    ResultSet - each row is a function description
    
    Throws:
    
    java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs
