Column description in ResultSetMetaData

Hi

Is there any way to get a column's
description (As defined using COMMENT ON [TABLE_NAME].COLUMN_NAME] IS )
and/or table name from the ResultSetMetaData or from the ResultSet,
without actually having to parse the SQL string to figure out what tables
and columns were used in the query. I would obviously only need this
for real columns. i.e. not columns that had functions or concatenations
performed on them.

Can anyone think of how to do this?

Kind Regards
Stefan
