+/** allows to manipulate table names.
+
+ <p>When, in a database application, dealing with table names, there's many degrees
+ of freedom to deal with. For instance, suppose you want to have the full name of a
+ table object, as it should be used in a <code>SELECT</code> statement's <code>FROM</code>
+ part. This requires you to evaluate whether or not the table has a catalog and/or schema
+ name, to combine the catalog, the schema, and the basic table name into one name, respecting
+ the database's quoting character, and the order in which all those parts should be combined.
+ Additionally, you have to respect the client-side settings which tell OpenOffice.org
+ to use or not use catalogs and schemas in <code>SELECT</code> at all.</p>
+
+ <p>The <type>XTableName</type> interface eases this and other, similar tasks around table
+ names.</p>
+
+ <p>The component itself does not have life-time control mechanimns, i.e. you
+ cannot explicitly dispose it (<member scope="com::sun::star::lang">XComponent::dispose</member>),
+ and you cannot be notified when it dies.<br/>
+ However, if your try to access any of its methods or attributes, after the
+ connection which was used to create it was closed, a <type scope="com::sun::star::lang">DisposedException</type>
+ will be thrown.</p>
