+/**
+ * The interface that adds support to the JDBC API for the
+ * JavaBeans<sup><font size=-2>TM</font></sup> component model.
+ * A rowset, which can be used as a JavaBeans component in
+ * a visual Bean development environment, can be created and
+ * configured at design time and executed at run time.
+ * <P>
+ * The <code>RowSet</code>
+ * interface provides a set of JavaBeans properties that allow a <code>RowSet</code>
+ * instance to be configured to connect to a JDBC data source and read
+ * some data from the data source. A group of setter methods (<code>setInt</code>,
+ * <code>setBytes</code>, <code>setString</code>, and so on)
+ * provide a way to pass input parameters to a rowset's command property.
+ * This command is the SQL query the rowset uses when it gets its data from
+ * a relational database, which is generally the case.
+ * <P>
+ * The <code>RowSet</code>
+ * interface supports JavaBeans events, allowing other components in an
+ * application to be notified when an event occurs on a rowset,
+ * such as a change in its value.
+ *
+ * <P>The <code>RowSet</code> interface is unique in that it is intended to be
+ * implemented using the rest of the JDBC API. In other words, a
+ * <code>RowSet</code> implementation is a layer of software that executes "on top"
+ * of a JDBC driver. Implementations of the <code>RowSet</code> interface can
+ * be provided by anyone, including JDBC driver vendors who want to
+ * provide a <code>RowSet</code> implementation as part of their JDBC products.
+ * <P>
+ * A <code>RowSet</code> object may make a connection with a data source and
+ * maintain that connection throughout its life cycle, in which case it is
+ * called a <i>connected</i> rowset. A rowset may also make a connection with
+ * a data source, get data from it, and then close the connection. Such a rowset
+ * is called a <i>disconnected</i> rowset. A disconnected rowset may make
+ * changes to its data while it is disconnected and then send the changes back
+ * to the original source of the data, but it must reestablish a connection to do so.
+ * <P>
+ * A disconnected rowset may have a reader (a <code>RowSetReader</code> object)
+ * and a writer (a <code>RowSetWriter</code> object) associated with it.
+ * The reader may be implemented in many different ways to populate a rowset
+ * with data, including getting data from a non-relational data source. The
+ * writer can also be implemented in many different ways to propagate changes
+ * made to the rowset's data back to the underlying data source.
+ * <P>
+ * Rowsets are easy to use. The <code>RowSet</code> interface extends the standard
+ * <code>java.sql.ResultSet</code> interface. The <code>RowSetMetaData</code>
+ * interface extends the <code>java.sql.ResultSetMetaData</code> interface.
+ * Thus, developers familiar
+ * with the JDBC API will have to learn a minimal number of new APIs to
+ * use rowsets. In addition, third-party software tools that work with
+ * JDBC <code>ResultSet</code> objects will also easily be made to work with rowsets.
+ *
