Objectives Describe the various types of JDBC drivers Select a JDBC driver Load a JDBC driver Establish a connection with a database

JDBC Drivers JDBC-ODBC bridge driver Native-API driver JDBC-Net driver Pure Java driver Loading a driver

Establishing a Connection JDBC URLs The Connection interface

Summary Describe the various types of JDBC drivers Select a JDBC driver Load a JDBC driver Establish a connection with a database

Objectives Define tables in a database using JDBC Add new rows to a table using JDBC Perform queries on a database using JDBC Extract data from a ResultSet object Describe the purpose of transactions Use transactions to maintain data consistency

The Statement Interface Statement interface methods executeUpdate executeQuery

Transactions Using SQL Statements Allow you to group statements so that changes do not take effect until both tables are updated

Summary Define tables in a database using JDBC Add new rows to a table using JDBC Perform queries on a database using JDBC Extract data from a ResultSet object Describe the purpose of transactions Use transactions to maintain data consistency

Objectives Describe the purpose of prepared statements Use prepared statements to increase efficiency Describe the purpose of stored procedures Use stored procedures

Prepared Statements PreparedStatement interface Prepared statement parameters Executing prepared statements

Stored Procedures Precompiled Stored within the DBMS Remain permanently within the DBMS

Summary Describe the purpose of prepared statements Use prepared statements to increase efficiency Describe the purpose of stored procedures Use stored procedures

Objectives Describe the purpose of metadata Extract metadata from a DBMS or database Extract metadata from a result set

Introduction to Metadata Metadata: data about data

DatabaseMetaData Determining DBMS product information Determining supported features Determining the database schema

ResultSetMetaData Extracting metadata from a result set

Summary Describe the purpose of metadata Extract metadata from a DBMS or database Extract metadata from a result set

Objectives Describe the purpose of SQLExceptions Catch SQLExceptions Determine the cause of a SQLException Recover efficiently from a SQLException

Introduction to SQLExceptions SQLException class helps determine when an error occurs and what type of error has occurred

try and catch Blocks catch block accepts an exception and provides some handling for recovering from an exception try block may have multiple associated catch blocks

SQLException Methods String getMessage( ); String getSQLState( ); int getErrorCode( ); SQLException getNextException( );

Summary Describe the purpose of SQLExceptions Catch SQLExceptions Determine the cause of a SQLException Recover efficiently from a SQLException
