Description

It would be very helpful to have methods PreparedStatement.getMetaData() and also PreparedStatement.getParameterMetaData() implemented.

I especially would like PreparedStatmeent.getMetaData() implemented, as I could prepare a SQL statement, and then get information about the result set, as well as information that the query is valid.

I am pretty sure this information is available in some form. When you do an "EXPLAIN query", the explain operation shows information about the result set including the column name/aliases and the column types.

thanks you
