+Subject: [JDBC] To do list for DatabaseMetaData
+Message-ID: 
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII
+X-Sender: [email protected]
+Precedence: bulk
+Sender: [email protected]
+Status: OR
+
+Since DatabaseMetaData seems to have been a subject of interest lately I
+have composed a list of concrete things that need to be done there.
+
+The spec of DatabaseMetaData is here:
+http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/sql/DatabaseMetaData.html
+
+All the functions listed in the spec and not listed below I have recently
+checked and updated for correctness and compliance.  Thus, this list is
+complete.  Functions marked with '?' I have not checked yet.
+
+If someone wants to tackle some of the getThings() functions, a
+description of the system catalogs is in the Developer's Guide.  Also note
+that some functions currently incorrectly handle the case of null patterns
+vs. "" patterns vs. "%" patterns.
+
+At least two parameters obtained by a DatabaseMetaData method are
+user-tunable on the server side.  The only way to get at those numbers
+currently is to use SHOW and parse the NOTICE: it sends back (which is
+impossible in the days of internationalized messages), so a nice
+side-project would be to implement a get_config_variable(text) returns
+text (better names possible) function to allow easier access.
+
+Now the list:
+
+allProceduresAreCallable()     not all procedures listed are
+                   callable (triggers, in/out)
+allTablesAreSelectable()       should this check access
+                   privileges or what?
+getSQLKeywords()           outdated, could be automated like
+                   keywords.sgml
+getNumericFunctions()          decide what exactly is a "numeric function"?
+getStringFunctions()           ditto
+getSystemFunctions()           ditto
+getTimeDateFunctions()         ditto
+getExtraNameCharacters()       server allows \200 to \377, how
+                   does this fit in with Unicode?
+getMaxColumnNameLength()       32 is hard-coded here, maybe query server
+getMaxColumnsInIndex()         this should be detected from server
+getMaxColumnsInTable()         this limit is probably shaky
+getMaxConnections()            could query the server for this
+                   (SHOW, see above)
+getMaxCursorNameLength()       32 hard-coded
+getMaxSchemaNameLength()       will be 32 when done
+getMaxProcedureNameLength()        32 hard-coded
+getMaxCatalogNameLength()      should be NAMEDATALEN
+doesMaxRowSizeIncludeBlobs()       since we don't have blobs, should
+                   this throw an exception?
+getMaxStatements()         questionable, see comment there
+getMaxTableNameLength()            32 hard-coded
+getMaxUserNameLength()         32 hard-coded
+getDefaultTransactionIsolation()   This is configurable in 7.2.
+                   (SHOW, see above)
+getProcedures()                missing catalog (database) and
+                   remarks columns
+getProcedureColumns()          only dummy implementation
+getTables()                fails to handle pre-7.1 servers
+                   (relkind 'v')
+getSchemas()               This should throw an exception.
+getTableTypes()                ?
+getColumns()               ?
+getColumnPrivileges()          not implemented
+getTablePrivileges()           not implemented
+getBestRowIdentifier()         only dummy implementation
+getVersionColumns()            not implemented
+getPrimaryKeys()           ?
+getImportedKeys()          ?
+getExportedKeys()          not implemented
+getCrossReference()            not implemented
+getTypeInfo()              ?
+getIndexInfo()             ?
+getUDTs()              ?
