In getTables in DatabaseMetaData.java it looks like
"TABLE" is returned as the TABLE_TYPE even if the
table is a SYSTEM TABLE. It looks like the
getTableTypes code is working correctly - if SYSTEM
TABLE is not requested then none are returned.
The problem appears to be in
case (byte) 'r':
relKind = "TABLE";
break;
which kind of forgets that sometimes an 'r' means a
TABLE and other times a SYSTEM TABLE depending on
TABLE_NAME.
the fix would be something like
case (byte) 'r':
if (relname.r.getBytes(1).startsWith("pg_"))
relKind = "SYSTEM TABLE"
else
relKind = "TABLE";
break;
For what its worth I am new to this list - I tried
searching the archive for this bug and was not able to
read the archive. Hopefully this bug and fix have
already been posted - but if not...
