ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatus for implementing an extensible data type in a database management system. In one implementation, a database system includes: one or more data storage facilities for use in storing data composing records in tables of a database; one or more processing modules configured to manage the data stored in the data-storage facilities; a database management component configured to provide an object-based extensible data type, where an extensible data type includes one or more data members; and a type registry accessible by the database management component, where the type registry stores a registry object for each type supported by the database system and for at least one extensible data type.
