Many database engines support virtual columns. These columns do not allow assignment; the value is either computed when the record is changed or when a query includes it. As such, an automated database interaction component using dbinfo to gather column specifications has no way to know which columns are virtual.
Please include a boolean column, perhaps named is_virtual, in the resultset for dbinfo.columns that indicates if the column is virtual. This will always be false when the database engine does not support virtual columns.
