/** provides comprehensive information about the database as a whole.
<p>Many of the methods here return lists of information in
the form of
com::sun::star::sdbc::XResultSet
objects.
You can use the normal com::sun::star::sdbc::XRow
(or com::sun::star::sdb::XColumn)
methods such as
com::sun::star::sdbc::XRow::getString()
and
com::sun::star::sdbc::XRow::getInt()
to retrieve the data from these XResultSets. If a given form of
metadata is not available, these methods should throw a
com::sun::star::sdbc::SQLException.
After calling one of the getXXX() methods,
one can check whether that value is `NULL`
with the method com::sun::star::sdbc::XRow::wasNull().
In the text only "(may be `NULL`)" is mentioned for this case.
</p>
<p>Some of these methods take arguments that are String patterns. These
arguments 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. Only metadata entries matching the search pattern
are returned. If a search pattern argument is set to `VOID`,
that argument's criteria will be dropped from the search.
</p>
<p>
A
com::sun::star::sdbc::SQLException
will be thrown if a driver does not support
a metadata method. In the case of methods that return an XResultSet,
either an XResultSet (which may be empty) is returned or a
SQLException is thrown.</p>
