Retrieves the precision for the base type of the UDT or complex type. This value corresponds to the precision for time or timestamp types; for example TIME(4) or TIMESTAMP(6), otherwise it is set to zero.

The method returns a constant of type int that contains the precision value.

The method throws SQLException if an error occurs while attempting to access the precision value. A database specific code “9744 (ERRUDFJAVUDT) <UDT base precision could not be accessed>” is returned.
