Dereferenced table columns

Applies to ✅ Open Source Edition   ✅ Express Edition   ✅ Professional Edition   ✅ Enterprise Edition

Any org.jooq.Table instance that is constructed in a way to know its own columns can be used to dereference those columns. Examples include:

All of these table expressions, as well as some others, extend the org.jooq.Fields type, which allows for all of these field accessing types, like org.jooq.Table but also org.jooq.Record and others to share field accessing logic.

// Get fields from AUTHOR dynamically, without type safety:
Field<?> id = AUTHOR.field("ID");
Field<?> firstName = AUTHOR.field("FIRST_NAME");
