    WidgetName      TEXT,       -- Widget instance name
    WidgetType      TEXT,       -- e.g., "Forms$TextBox", "CustomWidgets$ComboBox"
    ModuleName      TEXT
);

REFS

CREATE TABLE REFS (

CREATE INDEX idx_refs_source ON REFS(SourceName);
CREATE INDEX idx_refs_target ON REFS(TargetName);

Full-Text Search Tables

STRINGS (FTS5)

CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE STRINGS USING fts5(
    name,           -- Document qualified name
    kind,           -- Document type
    strings,        -- All text content concatenated
    tokenize='porter unicode61'
);

SOURCE (FTS5)

CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE SOURCE USING fts5(
    name,           -- Document qualified name
    kind,           -- Document type
    source,         -- MDL source representation
    tokenize='porter unicode61'
);

Querying Examples

-- Find entities with many attributes
SELECT Name, AttributeCount FROM CATALOG.ENTITIES
WHERE AttributeCount > 20 ORDER BY AttributeCount DESC;

-- Find all references to an entity
SELECT SourceName, RefKind FROM CATALOG.REFS
WHERE TargetName = 'Sales.Customer';

-- Full-text search
SELECT name, kind, snippet(STRINGS, 2, '<b>', '</b>', '...', 20)
FROM CATALOG.STRINGS WHERE strings MATCH 'validation error';
