It seems to have some problems, most notably the fact that we don't
support UDTs.  Looking at the javadoc for this function you are returing
NULL for both class_name and data_type which doesn't look like it's
allowed as type_cat and type_schem explicitly state their ability to be
null.  Without class_name and data_type what information are we really
returning?  If you are really just returning plain type info, how is this
different/better than getTypeInfo().

If you want to implement it for the sake of implementing it, the docs
state, "Note: If the driver does not support UDTs, an empty result set is
returned."  I belive this is the correct thing to do.
