* The JDBC specification for <code>ResultSetMetaData is in part very
* vague. This causes potential incompatibility between interpretations of the
* specification as realized in different JDBC driver implementations. As such,
* deciding to what degree reporting ResultSetMetaData is accurate has been
* considered very carefully. Hopefully, the design decisions made in light of
* these considerations have yeilded precisely the subset of full
* ResultSetMetaData support that is most commonly needed and that is most
* important, while also providing, under the most common use-cases, the
* fastest access with the least overhead and the best comprimise between
* speed, accuracy, jar-foootprint and retention of JDBC resources. <p>

*
* HSQLDB 1.7.1 did not report this value accurately,
* either always throwing or always returning false, depending
* upon client property values.<p>
*
* Starting with HSQLDB 1.7.2, this feature is better supported. <p>
*
* <hr>
*
* However, it must be stated here that, contrary to the generic
* documentation above, HSQLDB automatically numbered columns
* (IDENTITY columns, in HSQLDB parlance) are not read-only. <p>
*
* In fact, the generic documentation above seems to contradict the general
* definition of what, at minimum, an auto-increment column is: <p>
*
* Simply, an auto-increment column is one that guarantees it has a
* unique value after a successful insert or update operation, even if
* no value is supplied or NULL is explicitly specified by the application
* or a default value expression. <p>
*
* Further, without SQL Feature T176, Sequence generator support, the
* attributes of the internal source consulted for unique values are not
* defined. That is, unlike for a standard SQL SEQUENCE object or a system
* with full SQL 9x or 200n support for SQL Feature T174, Identity columns,
* an application must not assume and cannot determine in a standard way
* that auto-increment values start at any particular point, increment by
* any particular value or have any of the other attributes generally
* associated with SQL SEQUENCE generators. Further still, without full
* support for both feature T174 and T176, if a unique value is supplied
* by an application or provided by a declared or implicit default value
* expression, then whether that value is used or substituted with one
* from the automatic unique value source is implementation-defined
* and cannot be known in a standard way. Finally, without full support
* for features T174 and T176, it is also implementation-defined and
* cannot be know in a standard way whether an exception is thrown or
* a unique value is automatically substituted when an application or
* default value expression supplies a non-NULL,
* non-unique value. <p>
*
* Up to and including HSQLDB 1.7.2, values supplied by an application or
* default value expression are used if they are indeed non-NULL unique
* values, while an exception is thrown if either possible value source
* for the site attempts to supply a non-NULL, non-unique value. This is
* very likely to remain the behaviour of HSQLDB for its foreseable
* lifetime and at the very least for the duration of the 1.7.x release
* series.<p>
*
* <hr>
*
* Regardless of the new and better support for reporting
* isAutoIncrement(), it is still possible under certain conditions that
* accurate reporting may be impossible. For example, if this object's
* parent Connection is closed before the first call to this method or to
* any other method of this class that initializes the connection-dependent
* ResultSetMetaData values, then it is impossible to report accurately for
* result set columns that directly represent table column values.<p>
*
* Under such special circumstances, the driver rethrows the exception that
* occured during the initialization, or a SQLException wrapping it. <p>
*
* Those wishing to determine the auto-increment status of a table column
* in isolation from ResultSetMetaData can do so by inspecting the
* corresponding value of the SYSTEM_COLUMNS.IS_IDENTITY BOOLEAN column which
* is also currently included (in a fashion proprietary to HSQLDB) as the
* last column of the jdbcDatabaseMetaData.getColumns() result.
