Interface JdbcDatabase

All Superinterfaces:

Database, DBObjectProvider

public interface JdbcDatabase
extends Database

Implementation of the Database interface for JDBC Databases. The JdbcDatabase class provides support for generic JDBC databases; its implementations use the JDBC metadata layer to list and build object definitions, rather than querying the dictionary directly (DictionaryDatabase).

This used to be a class - that implementation is now JdbcDatabaseImpl

Since:

9.0.5

Method Detail

isUseSchema

boolean isUseSchema()

Tests whether this implementation uses Schemas - i.e. whether listing objects in different schemas is supported by the underyling database, or JDBC metadata implementation.

catalogIsSchema

boolean catalogIsSchema()

Tests whether the JDBC metadata catalog is the same as a Schema in the API.

normaliseDataTypeName

java.lang.String normaliseDataTypeName(java.lang.String name)

Returns the name of the datatype as defined in the registry. This default implementation just returns the name returned from the DatabaseMetaData, but some jdbc drivers return weird things instead of the documented names, e.g. Sybase ASE12.5 JDBC driver returns DOUBLE PRECIS for FLOAT and DOUBLE PRECISION, but DOUBLE PRECIS isn't a valid datatype name.

Parameters:

dmdDataTypeName -

Returns:

: the name of the datatype as defined in the registry

normaliseDefaultValue

java.lang.String normaliseDefaultValue(DataType type,
                                       java.lang.String value)

Converts default value into a standard form. This default implementation just returns the default value. The method should be overidden for drivers like the native drivers for MySQL and Informix which return default character type values without enclosing quotes, despite the fact they need to be enclosed in double or single quotes in CREATE DDL statements.

Parameters:

dataType -

defaultValue -

Returns:

getNameForDriver

java.lang.String getNameForDriver(java.lang.String name)

Some databases (e.g. informix) don't deal with non-lowercase names properly. If we have tables jim and JIM, DMD methods that take the table name as an argument, e.g getColumns() will fetch the columns for jim, not JIM. If we quote JIM, it returns nothing. This method is called by the JDBC metadata object builder implementations to determine whether to work around the problem by calling DMD.getColumns() etc, with a null name, and then filter out objects that don't match the required name. The main problem with the workaround is data for all tables will be returned as the schema name is also null for this driver.
