An interface which provides comprehensive information about the database management system and its supported features.
This interface is implemented by JDBC driver vendors in order to provide information about the underlying database capabilities in association with the JDBC driver.
Some of the methods in this interface take string parameters which are patterns. Within these string patterns, '%' and '_' characters have special meanings. '%' means "match any substring of 0 or more characters". '_' means "match any character". Only metadata entries that match the pattern are returned. If such a search pattern string is set to null, that argument's criteria are dropped from the search.
