      A set of parameters for <a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/GPUdb#createType(com.gpudb.protocol.CreateTypeRequest)"><code>GPUdb.createType</code></a>.
      <p> Creates a new type describing the columns of a table. The type definition is specified as a list of columns, each specified as a list of the column name, data type, and any column attributes. </p>
      <p> Example of a type definition with some parameters: </p>
      <pre>     \[<br />         \["id", "int8", "primary\_key"],<br />         \["dept\_id", "int8", "primary\_key", "shard\_key"],<br />         \["manager\_id", "int8", "nullable"],<br />         \["first\_name", "char32"],<br />         \["last\_name", "char64"],<br />         \["salary", "decimal"],<br />         \["hire\_date", "date"]<br />     ]<br /> </pre>
      Each column definition consists of the column name (which should meet the standard <a href="/content/concepts/tables/#table-naming-criteria" target="_top">column naming criteria</a>), the column's <a href="/content/concepts/types/#types-chart" target="_top">specific type</a> (int, long, float, double, string, bytes, or any of the possible values for <a href="#getProperties()"><code>properties</code></a>), and any <a href="/content/concepts/types/#types-data-handling" target="_top">data handling</a>, <a href="/content/concepts/types/#types-data-keys" target="_top">data key</a>, or <a href="/content/concepts/types/#types-data-replace" target="_top">data replacement</a> properties.
      <p> Note that some properties are mutually exclusive--i.e. they cannot be specified for any given column simultaneously. One example of mutually exclusive properties are <a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#PRIMARY_KEY"><code>PRIMARY\_KEY</code></a> and <a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#NULLABLE"><code>NULLABLE</code></a>. </p>
      <p> A single <a href="/content/concepts/tables/#primary-keys" target="_top">primary key</a> and/or single <a href="/content/concepts/tables/#shard-keys" target="_top">shard key</a> can be set across one or more columns. If a primary key is specified, then a uniqueness constraint is enforced, in that only a single object can exist with a given primary key column value (or set of values for the key columns, if using a composite primary key). When <a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/GPUdb#insertRecords(com.gpudb.protocol.InsertRecordsRequest)"><code>inserting</code></a> data into a table with a primary key, depending on the parameters in the request, incoming objects with primary key values that match existing objects will either overwrite (i.e. update) the existing object or will be skipped and not added into the set.</p>

                      <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#NULLABLE"><code>NULLABLE</code></a>: This property indicates that this column is nullable. However, setting this property is insufficient for making the column nullable. The user must declare the type of the column as a union between its regular type and 'null' in the Avro schema for the record type in <code>typeDefinition</code>. For example, if a column is of type integer and is nullable, then the entry for the column in the Avro schema must be: \['int', 'null']. The C++, C#, Java, and Python APIs have built-in convenience for bypassing setting the Avro schema by hand. For those languages, one can use this property as usual and not have to worry about the Avro schema for the record. </li>
                      <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#COMPRESS"><code>COMPRESS</code></a>: This property indicates that this column should be <a href="/content/concepts/column_compression/" target="_top">compressed</a> with the given codec and optional level; e.g., 'compress(snappy)' for Snappy compression and 'compress(zstd(7))' for zstd level 7 compression. This property is primarily used in order to save disk space. </li>
                      <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#DICT"><code>DICT</code></a>: This property indicates that this column should be <a href="/content/concepts/dictionary_encoding/" target="_top">dictionary encoded</a>. It can only be used in conjunction with restricted string (charN), int, long or date columns. Dictionary encoding is best for columns where the cardinality (the number of unique values) is expected to be low. This property can save a large amount of memory. </li>
                      <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#INIT_WITH_NOW"><code>INIT\_WITH\_NOW</code></a>: For 'date', 'time', 'datetime', or 'timestamp' column types, replace empty strings and invalid timestamps with 'NOW()' upon insert. </li>

                      <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#UPDATE_WITH_USER"><code>UPDATE\_WITH\_USER</code></a>: For 'charN' or 'string' column types, update the field with the current user's name upon any update. </li>
                      <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#DEFAULT"><code>DEFAULT</code></a>: Sets a default value expression for this column, e.g. 'default(0)', 'default(''pending'')', or 'default(NOW())'. When the column is omitted from an insert via request\_schema\_str, the expression is evaluated and the result is used as the column value. </li>
                      <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#DEFAULT_SQL"><code>DEFAULT\_SQL</code></a>: Sets a default value expression for this column with SQL syntax, e.g. 'default(0)', 'default(''pending'')', or 'default(NOW())'.

                    <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#NULLABLE"><code>NULLABLE</code></a>: This property indicates that this column is nullable. However, setting this property is insufficient for making the column nullable. The user must declare the type of the column as a union between its regular type and 'null' in the Avro schema for the record type in <a href="#getTypeDefinition()"><code>typeDefinition</code></a>. For example, if a column is of type integer and is nullable, then the entry for the column in the Avro schema must be: \['int', 'null']. The C++, C#, Java, and Python APIs have built-in convenience for bypassing setting the Avro schema by hand. For those languages, one can use this property as usual and not have to worry about the Avro schema for the record. </li>

This property is primarily used in order to save disk space. </li>
                    <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#DICT"><code>DICT</code></a>: This property indicates that this column should be <a href="/content/concepts/dictionary_encoding/" target="_top">dictionary encoded</a>. It can only be used in conjunction with restricted string (charN), int, long or date columns. Dictionary encoding is best for columns where the cardinality (the number of unique values) is expected to be low. This property can save a large amount of memory. </li>
                    <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#INIT_WITH_NOW"><code>INIT\_WITH\_NOW</code></a>: For 'date', 'time', 'datetime', or 'timestamp' column types, replace empty strings and invalid timestamps with 'NOW()' upon insert. </li>
                    <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#INIT_WITH_UUID"><code>INIT\_WITH\_UUID</code></a>: For 'uuid' type, replace empty strings and invalid UUID values with randomly-generated UUIDs upon insert. </li>

                    <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#UPDATE_WITH_USER"><code>UPDATE\_WITH\_USER</code></a>: For 'charN' or 'string' column types, update the field with the current user's name upon any update. </li>
                    <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#DEFAULT"><code>DEFAULT</code></a>: Sets a default value expression for this column, e.g. 'default(0)', 'default(''pending'')', or 'default(NOW())'. When the column is omitted from an insert via request\_schema\_str, the expression is evaluated and the result is used as the column value. </li>
                    <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#DEFAULT_SQL"><code>DEFAULT\_SQL</code></a>: Sets a default value expression for this column with SQL syntax, e.g. 'default(0)', 'default(''pending'')', or 'default(NOW())'. Only used for showing the expression when generating SQL DDL. </li>
                  </ul>

                    <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#NULLABLE"><code>NULLABLE</code></a>: This property indicates that this column is nullable. However, setting this property is insufficient for making the column nullable. The user must declare the type of the column as a union between its regular type and 'null' in the Avro schema for the record type in <a href="#getTypeDefinition()"><code>typeDefinition</code></a>. For example, if a column is of type integer and is nullable, then the entry for the column in the Avro schema must be: \['int', 'null']. The C++, C#, Java, and Python APIs have built-in convenience for bypassing setting the Avro schema by hand. For those languages, one can use this property as usual and not have to worry about the Avro schema for the record. </li>

This property is primarily used in order to save disk space. </li>
                    <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#DICT"><code>DICT</code></a>: This property indicates that this column should be <a href="/content/concepts/dictionary_encoding/" target="_top">dictionary encoded</a>. It can only be used in conjunction with restricted string (charN), int, long or date columns. Dictionary encoding is best for columns where the cardinality (the number of unique values) is expected to be low. This property can save a large amount of memory. </li>
                    <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#INIT_WITH_NOW"><code>INIT\_WITH\_NOW</code></a>: For 'date', 'time', 'datetime', or 'timestamp' column types, replace empty strings and invalid timestamps with 'NOW()' upon insert. </li>

When the column is omitted from an insert via request\_schema\_str, the expression is evaluated and the result is used as the column value. </li>
                    <li><a href="/content/api/java/com/gpudb/protocol/CreateTypeRequest.Properties#DEFAULT_SQL"><code>DEFAULT\_SQL</code></a>: Sets a default value expression for this column with SQL syntax, e.g. 'default(0)', 'default(''pending'')', or 'default(NOW())'.
