<p>
Database support for Axion is legacy in DdlUtils because Axion does not appear to
be actively developed anymore. Also, support for fundamential JDBC functionality necessary
for DdlUtils (such as database metadata) is lacking to a certain degree in Axion.<br/>
</p>
<p>
Info about the datatypes supported by <a href="ext:axion">Axion</a> can be found
