[jira] [Updated] (GEODE-6431) JDBC Connector should use NULL as default catalog and schema instead of empty string

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-6431?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Jianxia Chen updated GEODE-6431:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
 
 From the {{DatabaseMetaData.getTables(String catalog, String schemaPattern, String tableNamePattern, String[] types)}} Javadoc: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/sql/DatabaseMetaData.html#getTables(java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String[])

"retrieves those without a catalog; null means that the catalog name should not be used to narrow the search"

From the {{DatabaseMetaData.getSchemas(String catalog, String schemaPattern)}} javadoc:
 [https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/sql/DatabaseMetaData.html#getSchemas(java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String])

{{catalog - a catalog name; must match the catalog name as it is stored in the database;"" retrieves those without a catalog; null means catalog name should not be used to narrow down the search.}}

For example, for MySQL, if using empty string as default value for catalog and schema, {{DatabaseMetaData.getTables(String catalog, String schemaPattern, String tableNamePattern, String[] types)}} cannot return the expected table.

Compared to ""(empty string), {{NULL}} is a better default value for catalog and schema.
