Method Detail

getTypeVersion

int getTypeVersion()
            throws java.sql.SQLException

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException

getLength

int getLength()
       throws java.sql.SQLException

The number of fields in the Object Type.

Returns:

the size.

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException

getMetaData

java.sql.ResultSetMetaData getMetaData()
                                throws java.sql.SQLException

Returns:

a ResultSetMetaData object that contains the type info

Throws:

if - database access error occurs

java.sql.SQLException

isFinalType

boolean isFinalType()
             throws java.sql.SQLException

Indicates whether the object type is a final type.

Returns:

true if the object type is a final type and false otherwise.

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException

isSubtype

boolean isSubtype()
           throws java.sql.SQLException

Indicates whether the object type is a subtype.

Returns:

true if the object type is a subtype and false otherwise.

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException

isInstantiable

boolean isInstantiable()
                throws java.sql.SQLException

Indicates whether the object type is instantiable.

Returns:

true if the object type is instantiable and false otherwise.

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException

getSupertypeName

java.lang.String getSupertypeName()
                           throws java.sql.SQLException

Returns the SQL type name of the direct subtype.

Returns:

the fully qualified name of the supertype. Returns null if the object type is not a subtype.

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException

getLocalAttributeCount

int getLocalAttributeCount()
                    throws java.sql.SQLException
