Compliance Overview
The Type 4 driver conforms where applicable to the Sun Microsystems JDBC 3.0 API specification.
However, this driver differs from the JDBC standard in some ways. This subsection describes
the JDBC methods that are not supported, the methods and features that deviate from the
specification, and features that are HP extensions to the JDBC standard. JDBC features that
conform to the specification are not described in this subsection.
In addition, this chapter lists features of Neoview SQL that are not supported by the HP JDBC
Type 4 driver, other unsupported features, and restrictions.
Unsupported Features
These methods in the java.sql package throw an SQLException with the message
"Unsupported feature - method-name":
