I think it is fine. If you know what you are looking for, it all becomes
pretty clear. Maybe what would be good is for you to write up a bit of HTML
documentation on how to use all the ODBC stuff. I personally like to just
use Netscape Composer to draft up stuff. It makes it pretty easy.

essentially, it is a terminology issue: VISITOR == USER. The confusion is
that some stuff is called VISITOR and some stuff is called USER. It is a
legacy issue that isn't really worth resolving because it is easy enough to
figure it out. :-)

My only suggestion here is to throw SQLException ("Not implemented") in the
places where things are not implemented or not needed.

Lastly, why are you using ODBC? :-) Are there no native JDBC drivers for
your database? ODBC is a kludge these days. I haven't seen someone using it
with Java in quite a long time. JDBC + ODBC is like a compatibility layer on
top of a compatibility layer.
