EclipseLink DBWS Service based on schema-formatted Results from custom SQL SELECT statements
This example shows an extension to an existing use case where the Web service exposes the results of executing some custom SQL SELECT statements; however, the 'shape' of the returned result is determined at design-time, not runtime.
Under normal circumstances, the custom SQL SELECT statement returns java.sql.ResultSet's and the java.sql.ResultSetMetaData APIs (getColumnCount, getColumnLabel, getColumnType, etc.) can be used to determine the name and datatype of the returned information. DBWS uses the Simplified XML Format (SXF) to create an XML document to describe the ResultSet's information. Unfortunately, since this document can change arbitrarily, the SXF schema is extremely 'loose'
