Definition

Retrieves a description of the user-defined type (UDT) hierarchies defined in a particular schema in this database.

[Android.Runtime.Register("getSuperTypes", "(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/sql/ResultSet;", "GetGetSuperTypes_Ljava_lang_String_Ljava_lang_String_Ljava_lang_String_Handler:Java.Sql.IDatabaseMetaDataInvoker, Mono.Android, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null")]
public Java.Sql.IResultSet? GetSuperTypes (string? catalog, string? schemaPattern, string? typeNamePattern);
[<Android.Runtime.Register("getSuperTypes", "(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/sql/ResultSet;", "GetGetSuperTypes_Ljava_lang_String_Ljava_lang_String_Ljava_lang_String_Handler:Java.Sql.IDatabaseMetaDataInvoker, Mono.Android, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null")>]
abstract member GetSuperTypes : string * string * string -> Java.Sql.IResultSet

Parameters

catalog
String

a catalog name; "" retrieves those without a catalog; null means drop catalog name from the selection criteria

schemaPattern
String

a schema name pattern; "" retrieves those without a schema

typeNamePattern
String

a UDT name pattern; may be a fully-qualified name

Returns

a ResultSet object in which a row gives information about the designated UDT

Attributes

Exceptions

a database error occurred.

Remarks

Retrieves a description of the user-defined type (UDT) hierarchies defined in a particular schema in this database. Only the immediate super type/ sub type relationship is modeled.

Only supertype information for UDTs matching the catalog, schema, and type name is returned. The type name parameter may be a fully-qualified name. When the UDT name supplied is a fully-qualified name, the catalog and schemaPattern parameters are ignored.

If a UDT does not have a direct super type, it is not listed here. A row of the ResultSet object returned by this method describes the designated UDT and a direct supertype. A row has the following columns: <OL> <LI><B>TYPE_CAT</B> String => the UDT's catalog (may be null) <LI><B>TYPE_SCHEM</B> String => UDT's schema (may be null) <LI><B>TYPE_NAME</B> String => type name of the UDT <LI><B>SUPERTYPE_CAT</B> String => the direct super type's catalog (may be null) <LI><B>SUPERTYPE_SCHEM</B> String => the direct super type's schema (may be null) <LI><B>SUPERTYPE_NAME</B> String => the direct super type's name </OL>

<B>Note:</B> If the driver does not support type hierarchies, an empty result set is returned.
