Database meta data

Applies to ✅ Open Source Edition   ✅ Express Edition   ✅ Professional Edition   ✅ Enterprise Edition

Not only the code generator, but also the runtime library offers a way to access database meta data. This API is made available as org.jooq.Meta, and it has several implementations, out of the box:

• A JDBC backed implementation querying java.sql.DatabaseMetaData
• An XML backed implementation (implementing https://www.jooq.org/xsd/jooq-meta-3.5.4.xsd)

The following sections document each one of the above.
