SQL-J Extensions

Classes and interfaces in this category are used only within SQL-J statements and thus can be used in an embedded or a client/server system.

Types Used in System Tables

These are the Java data types supplied by Cloudscape and stored in system tables, or used or generated by types stored in system tables. An asterisk indicates a type used by but not stored in the system table types.

Other Types

SQLException-Related

User-Throwable

Interfaces for User-Defined Aggregates

These types allow you to make a Java data type usable within aggregate statements such as min, max, sum, and so on.

VTIs

Virtual Table Interfaces, also known as VTIs, are classes that implement java.sql.ResultSet and that allow you to access data external to Cloudscape as if it were stored in the database. For more information, see Getting External Data: Using the Cloudscape Virtual Table Interface in the Cloudscape Developer's Guide.

Cloudscape also provides some built-in VTIs that make it easy to work with some internal system information.
