                                    int strength,
                                    int decomposition)
      • setDefaultExpression

        public void setDefaultExpression​(Expression expression)
      • setForeignKey

        public void setForeignKey​(java.lang.String foreign_key)
        Deprecated.
      • setIndexScheme

        public void setIndexScheme​(java.lang.String index_scheme)
        Sets the indexing scheme for this column. Either 'InsertSearch' or 'BlindSearch'. If not set, then default to insert search.
      • setClassConstraint

        public void setClassConstraint​(java.lang.String class_constraint)
        If this column represents a Java object, this must be a class the object is derived from to be added to this column.
      • setFromTType

        public void setFromTType​(TType type)
        Sets this DataTableColumnDef object up from information in the TType object. This is useful when we need to create a DataTableColumnDef object to store information based on nothing more than a TType object. This comes in useful for purely functional tables.
      • initTTypeInfo

        public void initTTypeInfo()
        Initializes the TType information for a column. This should be called at the last part of a DataTableColumnDef setup.
      • getName

        public java.lang.String getName()
      • isNotNull

        public boolean isNotNull()
      • getSQLType

        public int getSQLType()
      • getSQLTypeString

        public java.lang.String getSQLTypeString()
        Returns the type as a String.
      • getDBTypeString

        public java.lang.String getDBTypeString()
        Returns the type as a String.
      • classType

        public java.lang.Class classType()
        Returns the Class of Java object that represents this column.
      • getDBType

        public int getDBType()

        public java.lang.String getLocaleString()
      • getStrength

        public int getStrength()
      • getDecomposition

        public int getDecomposition()
      • getDefaultExpressionString

        public java.lang.String getDefaultExpressionString()
      • getForeignKey

        public java.lang.String getForeignKey()
        Deprecated.
      • getIndexScheme

        public java.lang.String getIndexScheme()
        Returns the name of the scheme we use to index this column. It will be either 'InsertSearch' or 'BlindSearch'.
      • isIndexableType

        public boolean isIndexableType()
        Returns true if this type of column is able to be indexed.
      • getClassConstraint

        public java.lang.String getClassConstraint()
        If this column represents a Java Object, this returns the name of the class the objects stored in the column must be derived from.
      • getClassConstraintAsClass

        public java.lang.Class getClassConstraintAsClass()
        If this column represents a Java Object, this returns the class object that is the constraining class for the column.
      • getTType

        public TType getTType()
        Returns the TType for this column.
      • columnDescriptionValue

        public ColumnDescription columnDescriptionValue​(java.lang.String column_name)
        Returns this column as a ColumnDescription object and gives the column description the given name.
      • dump

        public void dump​(java.io.PrintStream out)
        Dumps information about this object to the PrintStream.
      • sqlTypeToString

        public static java.lang.String sqlTypeToString​(int sql_type)
        Returns a string that represents the given SQLType enumeration passed to it. For example, pass SQLTypes.BIT and it returns the string "BIT"
