53/** is a client side RowSet, which use retrieves is data based on a database table,
54	a query or a SQL command or by a rowset reader, who mustn't support SQL.
55	The connection of the rowset is typically a named DataSource or a DataAccess component
56	or a previous instanciated connection.
57	<p>
58	Depending on the
59	<type scope="com::sun::star::sdbc">ResultSetConcurrency</type>
60	, the RowSet caches all data or uses
61	an optimized way for retrieving the data, such as, refetching rows by their keys or
62	if provided, by their bookmarks.
63	</p>
64	<p>
65	In addition, it provides events for RowSet navigation and RowSet modifications
66	to approve the actions and to react on them.

72	<h3>Notifications</h3>
73    <p>A row set is able to be operated in various ways, and additionally it notifies various changes in it's
74	state. Clients of this service can rely on a fixed order of notifications, depending on how they operate
75	on the component.</br>
76	The following describes the general order of all possible notifications which you can encounter when
77	working with a row set:
78	<table>
79		<tr><td valign="top"><em>approving</em></td>
80			<td valign="top">Before anything really happens, any veto listeners are called to approve the operation
81				which is just being done. This may be either a
82				<member>XRowSetApproveListener::approveCursorMove</member> or
83				<member>XRowSetApproveListener::approveRowChange</member> call.
84				@see XRowSetApproveListener
85			</td>
86		</tr>
87		<tr><td valign="top"><em>column values</em></td>
88			<td valign="top">If the opration includes changes in the values of the columns of the row set, then these are
89			notified before anything else (except requests for approval).
90			@see ResultSet
91			@see com::sun::star::sdbcx::XColumnsSupplier
92			</td>
93		</tr>
94		<tr><td valign="top"><em>operation done</em></td>
95			<td valign="top">When the operation is done, you get a notification about this. It may be a
96			<member scope="com::sun::star::sdbc">XRowSetListener::cursorMoved</member> or a
97			<member scope="com::sun::star::sdbc">XRowSetListener::rowChanged</member> call or a
98            <member>XRowsChangeListener::rowsChanged</member> call.
99			</td>
100		</tr>
101		<tr><td valign="top"><em>row state</em></td>
102			<td valign="top">If the operation leads to a change in the state of the <member>IsModified</member>
103			and/or <member>IsNew</member> property, this is notified next (in this order).
104			</td>
105		</tr>
106		<tr><td valign="top"><em>row count</em></td>
107			<td valign="top">If the operation leads to new knowledge about the number of rows in the result set,
108			the respective changes in the <member>RowCount</member> and <member>IsRowCountFinal</member>
109			are notified last (in this order).
110			</td>
111		</tr>

161    <h3>Deletions</h3>
162    <p>Via <member scope="com::sun::star::sdbc">XResultSetUpdate::deleteRow</member>, you can delete the current row of a
163    <type>RowSet</type>. This deleted row then doesn't vanish immediately, but is still present, and subsequent calls to
164    <member scope="com::sun::star::sdbc">XResultSet::rowDeleted</member> will return <TRUE/>. The deleted row "vanishes" from
165    the <type>RowSet</type> as soon as the cursor is moved away from it.<br/>
166    As a consequence, the behaviour of several other methods is affected:<br/>
167	<dl>
168        <dt><member scope="com::sun::star::sdbc">XResultSet::getRow</member></dt>

172            <code>relative</code>, <code>previous</code>, <code>beforeFirst</code>, <code>afterLast</code></dt>
173        <dd>will let the deleted row vanish from the result set. As a consequence, the <member>RowCount</member>
174            will decrease when you do such a move operation after deleting a row.<br/>
175            A special case to note is the <code>next<code> call: When you delete row, say,
176            <code>15</code>, followed by <code>next</code>, then your <type>RowSet</type> afterwards
177            still is on row 15, since the deleted row vanished with the move operation.</dd>
178
179        <dt><member scope="com::sun::star::sdbc">XResultSet::refreshRow</member></dt>
180        <dd>will throw an exception when the cursor is on a deleted row.</dd>

195        <dd>will let the deleted row vanish from the result set. As a consequence, the <member>RowCount</member>
196            will decrease. Also, subsequent calls to
197            <member scope="com::sun::star::sdbc">XResultSetUpdate::moveToCurrentRow</member> will not
198            be able to move back to the deleted row (since it vanished), but only to the
