See the License for the specific language governing permissions and limitations under the License. This abstract class provides a Wrapper for SQL datatypes. A datatype has a type code (from java.sql.Types) and a scale. For example, INTEGER(17) is a datatype. A datatype can convert a datum to a suitable string. E.g. a TIMESTAMP datatype will convert the datum "2006-09-18" to TIMESTAMP '2006-09-18 00:00:00.00'. Of course, the same SQL datatype is different for different database systems, so that different databases have to implement different classes for the same datatype.
Example:

     Database d=new OracleDatabase("user","password");     
     d.getSQLType(java.sql.Types.VARCHAR).format("Bobby's")
     -> 'Bobby"s'
     d=new MySQLDatabase("user","password","database");     
     d.getSQLType(java.sql.Types.VARCHAR).format("Bobby's")
     -> 'Bobby\'s'

See here for a comparison of database systems. This class provides the ANSI implementations with generous conversion capabilities.
Example:

    SQLType.ANSItimestamp.format("13th of May 1980")
    --> TIMESTAMP '1980-05-13 00:00:00.00'
