Very very unlikely. I don't think any drivers provide this yet. The JDBC
3.0 spec does have such a thing, but it's new and not really common.

Two Options:

1) Find some SQL that is mysql specific to find it out. I know there is
something, I'm just not sure what. I'll try to hunt it out.

2) Look at the mysql driver for some extra methods to do such a thing. I
know Oracle's driver has a bunch of extra things in, but I'm not sure if
Mysql does. I've never tried looking at the source to find extra non-spec
code.
