The database type definition
The jdbc type (as defined in java.sql.Types) used to send a null value to the database.

If multiple matching dialects are registered then all matching ones will be tried in reverse order. A user-added dialect will thus be applied first, overwriting the defaults.
All new dialects are applied to new jdbc DataFrames only. Make sure to register your dialects first.

1) being reported as a BIT type is quite common, even though BIT in JDBC is meant for single-bit values. Also, there does not appear to be a standard name for an unbounded string or binary type; we use BLOB and CLOB by default but override with database-specific alternatives when these are absent or do not behave correctly.Currently, the only thing done by the dialect is type mapping.
getCatalystType
is used when reading from a JDBC table andgetJDBCType
is used when writing to a JDBC table. IfgetCatalystType
returnsnull
, the default type handling is used for the given JDBC type. Similarly, ifgetJDBCType
returns(null, None)
, the default type handling is used for the given Catalyst type.
