<p>
      For a general overview of the mete data problem, see the
      Get information about a table's columns section. Updating the meta data
      can be done by calling 
      <a class="link" href="GdaConnection.html#gda-connection-update-meta-store" title="gda_connection_update_meta_store ()">gda_connection_update_meta_store()</a> with a %NULL
      "context" argument, but this
      call updates the whole meta data which will always do the job, but sometimes one knows that only a
      part of the meta data need to be updated. Here is an example of how to use a specific
      <a class="link" href="GdaMetaStore.html#GdaMetaContext" title="GdaMetaContext">GdaMetaContext</a> argument.
    </p>
<p>
      Specifically the following code
      updates the meta data regarding the "customers" table:
      </p>
<pre class="programlisting">
GdaConnection *connection=...
GError *error = NULL;
GValue *table;
GdaMetaContext *mcontext = gda_meta_context_new ();
/* This is a table in the dababase schema for Meta Store to update */
gda_meta_context_set_table ("_tables");
/* Next setup a value to be used as the column in the last table to be used as a condition in the update
   in this case we will use the column 'table_name' and update for 'customers'*/
table = gda_value_new (G_TYPE_STRING);
g_value_set_string (table, "customers");
gda_meta_context_set_column ("table_name", table);
gboolean result;
result = gda_connection_update_meta_store (connection, mcontext, &amp;error);
gda_value_free (table);
gda_meta_context_free (mcontext);
if (!result) {
    /* handle the error */
    g_error_free (error);
}
      </pre>
<p>
    </p>
<p>
      Internally <a class="link" href="GdaSqlParser.html#gda-sql-identifier-quote" title="gda_sql_identifier_quote ()">gda_meta_context_set_column()</a> calls 
      <a class="link" href="GdaSqlParser.html#gda-sql-identifier-quote" title="gda_sql_identifier_quote ()">gda_sql_identifier_quote()</a> which ensure that the contents of 
      <code class="code">mcontext.column_values</code> values is conform to the convention used by the 
      <a class="link" href="GdaMetaStore.html" title="GdaMetaStore">GdaMetaStore</a> to represent SQL identifiers when the
      values represent an SQL identifier (which is the case in the example above). For more information,
      see the <a class="link" href="information_schema.html#information_schema:sql_identifiers" title="SQL identifiers">meta data section about SQL identifiers</a>.
      Even though not strictly necessary, it used all the time.
      For example if the table name for which a meta data update is requested had been <span class="emphasis"><em>"Customers"</em></span>
      (note the upper case C at the beginning and the double quotes) because this is how the database know it, then
      not using <a class="link" href="GdaSqlParser.html#gda-sql-identifier-quote" title="gda_sql_identifier_quote ()">gda_sql_identifier_quote()</a> may not have done as
      expected.
