Re: .NET Provider Meta Data GetSchema()

I would assume all DB2 restriction values would work, wherever those are
referenced.

Can you use Reflector to open up DB2MetaDataCollectionNames.Restrictions
from the DB2 .NET Data Provider? What does it list?

Thanks, but that doesn't tell me anything about what the list of
qualifiers
is for the restrictions as implemented by the iDB2 provider. For
example,
the following couple were easy to figure out via educated guesses:

DataTable tbls
String[] tblsFilter = new string[] {"LIBNAME"}

DataTable cols;
String[] colsFilter = new string[] {"LIBNAME", "TABLENAME"}

Using (iDB2Connection cn = new iDB2Connection("MyConnString"))
{
cn.Open();
tbls = cn.GetSchema(iDB2MetaDataCollectionNames.Tables, tblsFilter);
cols = cn.GetSchema(iDB2MetaDataCollectionNames.Columns,
colsFilter);
cn.Close();
}

So there are some obvious choices, but I'd like to know what filtering
options I might be missing. The .NET driver for DB2 v9.x on Win/Nix
provides
a specific collection (iDB2MetaDataCollectionNames.Restrictions) that
can be
examined for the list of qualifiers, but the iDB2 driver does not
implement
that collection.
