Class StructDescriptor

java.lang.Object
oracle.sql.TypeDescriptor
oracle.sql.StructDescriptor

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, ORAData

public class StructDescriptor

extends TypeDescriptor

implements java.io.Serializable

Descriptor of a SQL structured object. (That is an SQL Object type). Its main responsibility is understanding how to convert between various representations of such a struct.

There should be a method to return information about the fields (beyond their number. But there is no public representation for that.
