- - ### Method Detail

    - #### createDatabase

          void createDatabase()
                       throws java.sql.SQLException

      Creates a new database, connection remains attached to database.
      Throws:
        `java.sql.SQLException`

    - #### dropDatabase

          void dropDatabase()
                     throws java.sql.SQLException

      Drops (and deletes) the currently attached database.
      Throws:
        `java.sql.SQLException`

    - #### cancelOperation

          void cancelOperation(int kind)
                        throws java.sql.SQLException

      Cancels the current operation.

      The cancellation types are:

      `ISCConstants.fb_cancel_disable`
        disables execution of fb_cancel_raise requests for the specified attachment. It can be useful when your0 program is executing critical operations, such as cleanup, for example.
      `ISCConstants.fb_cancel_enable`
        re-enables delivery of a cancel execution that was previously disabled. The 'cancel' state is effective by default, being initialized when the attachment is created.
      `ISCConstants.fb_cancel_raise`
        cancels any activity related to the database handle. The effect will be that, as soon as possible, the engine will try to stop the running request and return an exception to the caller
      `ISCConstants.fb_cancel_abort`
        forcibly close client side of connection. Useful if you need to close a connection urgently. All active transactions will be rolled back by the server. 'Success' is always returned to the application. Use with care!
      Parameters:
        `kind` - Cancellation type
      Throws:
        `java.sql.SQLException` - For errors cancelling, or if the cancel operation is not supported.
