TSQLConnection.MetaData Property

Provides an interface to the dbExpress object that supplies server metadata.

Pascal
property MetaData: TDBXDatabaseMetaData;
C++
__property TDBXDatabaseMetaData MetaData;

Typically, applications do not use the MetaData property to work directly with the dbExpress MetaData interface. Instead, they use one of methods that assembles schema information into a list (GetFieldNames, GetIndexNames, GetProcedureNames, GetProcedureParams, or GetTableNames). When more detailed metadata is required, you can also use the SQL dataset's SetSchemaInfo method to populate an SQL dataset with metadata.
