               // data is an array of objects
               alert(data[0].name); // name of first column
               }
OAT.Xmla.columns(callback);

OAT.Xmla.execute(callback)

*ToBeDone? - verify function signature and sample*

Sends a query for execution.OAT.Xmla.connection should be set before calling this function.

var callback = function(data); {
var header   = data[0];
var data     = data[1];
               alert(header.length); // count of columns in result
               alert(data.length); // count of rows in result
               }
OAT.Xmla.execute(query);

OAT.Xmla.qualifiers(callback)

Discovers qualifiers.

var callback = function(data); {
               alert("First qualifier "+data[0]);
               alert("Second qualifier "+data[1]);
               }
OAT.Xmla.qualifiers(callback);

OAT.Xmla.primaryKeys(catalog, schema, table, callback)

Gets primary keys for this table.

var callback = function(data); {
               // data == array of column names
               alert(data);
               }
OAT.Xmla.primaryKeys(catalog, schema, table, callback);

OAT.Xmla.foreignKeys(catalog, schema, table, callback)

Gets foreign keys for this table.

var callback = function(data); {
               // data == array of objects
               for (var i=0;i<data.length;i++) {
                   alert(data[i][0].column+" "+data[i][1].column);
                   }
               }
OAT.Xmla.foreignKeys(catalog, schema, table, callback);

OAT.Xmla.providerTypes(callback)

*ToBeDone? - verify function name, signature, example, and description... providerTypes? or datatypes?*

Discovers available datatypes.

var callback = function(data); {
               // data == array of objects
               for (var i=0;i<data.length;i++) {
                   alert(data[i].name+" "+data[i].type);
                   }
               }
