/**
 * The standard interface that all implementations of a <code>WebRowSet</code>
 * must implement. 
 * <P>
 * <h3>1.0 Overview</h3>
 * The <code>WebRowSetImpl</code> provides the standard 
 * reference implementation, which may be extended if required. 
 * <P>
 * The standard WebRowSet XML Schema definition is available at the following
 * URI:
 * <ul>
 * <pre>
 * <a href="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jdbc/webrowset.xsd">http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jdbc/webrowset.xsd</a>
 * </pre>
 * </ul>
 * It describes the standard XML document format required when describing a
 * <code>RowSet</code> object in XML and must be used be all standard implementations 
 * of the <code>WebRowSet</code> interface to ensure interoperability. In addition, 
 * the <code>WebRowSet</code> schema uses specific SQL/XML Schema annotations,
 * thus ensuring greater cross 
 * platform inter-operability. This is an effort currently under way at the ISO
 * organization. The SQL/XML definition is available at the following URI:
 * <ul>
 * <pre>
 * <a href="http://standards.iso.org/iso/9075/2002/12/sqlxml">http://standards.iso.org/iso/9075/2002/12/sqlxml</a>
 * </pre>
 * </ul>
 * The schema definition describes the internal data of a <code>RowSet</code> object
 * in three distinct areas:
 * <UL>
 * <li><b>properties</b></li>
 * These properties describe the standard synchronization provider properties in
 * addition to the more general <code>RowSet</code> properties.
 * <p>
 * <li><b>metadata</b></li>
 * This describes the metadata associated with the tabular structure governed by a
 * <code>WebRowSet</code> object. The metadata described is closely aligned with the
 * metadata accessible in the underlying <code>java.sql.ResultSet</code> interface.
 * <p>
 * <li><b>data</b></li>
 * This describes the original data (the state of data since the last population 
 * or last synchronization of the <code>WebRowSet</code> object) and the current 
 * data. By keeping track of the delta between the original data and the current data, 
 * a <code>WebRowSet</code> maintains
 * the ability to synchronize changes in its data back to the originating data source.
 * </ul>
 * <P>
 * <h3>2.0 WebRowSet States</h3>
 * The following sections demonstrates how a <code>WebRowSet</code> implementation
 * should use the XML Schema to describe update, insert, and delete operations 
 * and to describe the state of a <code>WebRowSet</code> object in XML. 
 * <p>
 * <h4>2.1 State 1 - Outputting a <code>WebRowSet</code> Object to XML</h3>
 * In this example, a <code>WebRowSet</code> object is created and populated with a simple 2 column, 
 * 5 row table from a data source. Having the 5 rows in a <code>WebRowSet</code> object
 * makes it possible to describe them in XML. The
 * metadata describing the various standard JavaBeans properties as defined
 * in the RowSet interface plus the standard properties defined in
 * the <code>CachedRowSet</code><sup><font size=-2>TM</font></sup> interface 
 * provide key details that describe WebRowSet
 * properties. Outputting the WebRowSet object to XML using the standard 
 * <code>writeXml</code> methods describes the internal properties as follows:
 * <PRE>

 * how the contents of a <code>WebRowSet</code> object is described in XML. Note, that
 * this describes a <code>WebRowSet</code> object that has not undergone any 
 * modifications since its instantiation.
 * A <code>currentRow</code> tag is mapped to each row of the table structure that the
 * <code>WebRowSet</code> object provides. A <code>columnValue</code> tag may contain
 * either the <code>stringData</code> or <code>binaryData</code> tag, according to 
 * the SQL type that
 * the XML value is mapping back to. The <code>binaryData</code> tag contains data in the
 * Base64 encoding and is typically used for <code>BLOB</code> and <code>CLOB</code> type data.

 * <h4>2.2 State 2 - Deleting a Row</h4>
 * Deleting a row in a <code>WebRowSet</code> object involves simply moving to the row
 * to be deleted and then calling the method <code>deleteRow</code>, as in any other
 * <code>RowSet</code> object.  The following
 * two lines of code, in which <i>wrs</i> is a <code>WebRowSet</code> object, delete 
 * the third row.
 * <PRE>
 *     wrs.absolute(3);
 *     wrs.deleteRow();
 * </PRE>
 * The XML description shows the third row is marked as a <code>deleteRow</code>,
 *  which eliminates the third row in the <code>WebRowSet</code> object.
 * <PRE>
 * &lt;<font color=red>data</font>&gt;
 *	&lt;<font color=red>currentRow</font>&gt;

 * &lt;<font color=red>/data</font>&gt;
 * </PRE>
 * <h4>2.3 State 3 - Inserting a Row</h4>
 * A <code>WebRowSet</code> object can insert a new row by moving to the insert row,
 * calling the appropriate updater methods for each column in the row, and then
 * calling the method <code>insertRow</code>.
 * <PRE>
 * wrs.moveToInsertRow();
 * wrs.updateString(1, "fifththrow");
 * wrs.updateString(2, "5");
 * wrs.insertRow();
 * </PRE>
 * The following code fragment changes the second column value in the row just inserted.
 * Note that this code applies when new rows are inserted right after the current row,
 * which is why the method <code>next</code> moves the cursor to the correct row.
 * Calling the method <code>acceptChanges</code> writes the change to the data source.  
 * 
 * <PRE>
 * wrs.moveToCurrentRow();
 * wrs.next();
 * wrs.updateString(2, "V");
 * wrs.acceptChanges();
 * :
 * </PRE>
 * Describing this in XML demonstrates where the Java code inserts a new row and then
 * performs an update on the newly inserted row on an individual field.
 * <PRE>

 * <h4>2.4 State 4 - Modifying a Row</h4>
 * Modifying a row produces specific XML that records both the new value and the 
 * value that was replaced.  The value that was replaced becomes the original value,
 * and the new value becomes the current value. The following
 * code moves the cursor to a specific row, performs some modifications, and updates
 * the row when complete.
 * <PRE>
 * wrs.absolute(5);
 * wrs.updateString(1, "new4thRow");
 * wrs.updateString(2, "IV");
 * wrs.updateRow();
 * </PRE>
 * In XML, this is described by the <code>modifyRow</code> tag. Both the original and new
 * values are contained within the tag for original row tracking purposes.
