            - Reduced the object overhead in PreparedStatement by reusing the same
              StringBuffer object throughout. Similarly SimpleDateStamp's are alse
              reused in a thread save manner.
            - Implemented in PreparedStatement: setNull(), setDate/Time/Timestamp
              using Calendar, setBlob(), setCharacterStream()
            - Clob's are now implemented in ResultSet & PreparedStatement!
            - Implemented a lot of DatabaseMetaData & ResultSetMetaData methods.
              We have about 18 unimplemented methods left in JDBC2 at the current
              time.

/**
 * This class provides information about the database as a whole.
 *
 * <p>Many of the methods here return lists of information in ResultSets.  You
 * can use the normal ResultSet methods such as getString and getInt to
 * retrieve the data from these ResultSets.  If a given form of metadata is
 * not available, these methods should throw a SQLException.
 *
 * <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 a null
 * ref, it means that argument's criteria should be dropped from the
 * search.
 *
 * <p>A SQLException will be throws if a driver does not support a meta
 * data method.  In the case of methods that return a ResultSet, either
 * a ResultSet (which may be empty) is returned or a SQLException is
 * thrown.
