Jianxia Chen updated GEODE-6431:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
 
 From the {{DatabaseMetaData.getTables(String catalog, String schemaPattern, 
String tableNamePattern, String[] types)}} Javadoc: 
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/sql/DatabaseMetaData.html#getTables(java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String[])

"retrieves those without a catalog; null means that the catalog name should not 
be used to narrow the search"

>From the {{DatabaseMetaData.getSchemas(String catalog, String schemaPattern)}} 
>javadoc:
 
[https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/sql/DatabaseMetaData.html#getSchemas(java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String])

{{catalog - a catalog name; must match the catalog name as it is stored in the 
database;"" retrieves those without a catalog; null means catalog name should 
not be used to narrow down the search.}}

For example, for MySQL, if using empty string as default value for catalog and 
schema, {{DatabaseMetaData.getTables(String catalog, String schemaPattern, 
String tableNamePattern, String[] types)}} cannot return the expected table.

Compared to ""(empty string), {{NULL}} is a better default value for catalog 
and schema.
