Interface SQLVendor

All Known Subinterfaces:

DerbyVendor, H2Vendor, MySQLVendor, PostgreSQLVendor, SQLiteVendor

public interface SQLVendor

This is the base API interface for all SQLVendors to implement. It gives the means to acquire factories to create SQL syntax elements. Additionally, the vendor creates the textual representation of these syntax elements so that the query may be passed directly to database, for example, through JDBC.
