14. JDBC Driver JDBC Driver: JDBC Driver: set of classes that interface with a specific database engine. set of classes that interface with a specific database engine. JDBC drivers exist for every major database including: Oracle, SQL Server, Sybase, and MySQL. JDBC drivers exist for every major database including: Oracle, SQL Server, Sybase, and MySQL.

16. Database Drivers Type 1 - Bridge Drivers Type 1 - Bridge Drivers Drivers in Java code which connect a Java client to a non-java database service (such as ODBC). Drivers in Java code which connect a Java client to a non-java database service (such as ODBC). Type 2 - Part-Java Drivers (Native) Type 2 - Part-Java Drivers (Native) Wraps (possibly existing) native code libraries with Java code to implement JDBC. Wraps (possibly existing) native code libraries with Java code to implement JDBC.

21. JDBC Six step Procedure Six step Procedure Load the JDBC Driver Load the JDBC Driver Establish the Database Connection Establish the Database Connection Create a Statement Object Create a Statement Object Execute a Query Execute a Query Process the Results Process the Results Close the Connection Close the Connection

22. JDBC CLASS USAGE DriverManager Driver Connection Statement ResultSet

23. JDBC: Loading the Driver A simple reference to the driver loads it into the JVM A simple reference to the driver loads it into the JVM Class.forName(name_of_the_driver) Class.forName(name_of_the_driver) Driver name is a string representing the complete hierarchy of the driver class i.e. the package and class name Driver name is a string representing the complete hierarchy of the driver class i.e. the package and class name For a JDBC-ODBC Driver For a JDBC-ODBC Driver Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriv er");

24. Establish the Connection Static method getConnection of Class Driver Manager returns a Connection object. Static method getConnection of Class Driver Manager returns a Connection object. Can throw SQLException Can throw SQLException Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(url, user, password ) Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(url, user, password )

25. Connection URL The only difficulty in establishing a connection is specifying the correct URL. The only difficulty in establishing a connection is specifying the correct URL. General format of connection URL is jdbc:subprotocol:subname. General format of connection URL is jdbc:subprotocol:subname. JDBC indicates that this is a JDBC Connection. JDBC indicates that this is a JDBC Connection. The subprotocol identifies the driver to be used The subprotocol identifies the driver to be used The subname identifies the database name/location. The subname identifies the database name/location.

26. Connection URL For example, the following code uses a JDBC-ODBC bridge to connect to the local database db: For example, the following code uses a JDBC-ODBC bridge to connect to the local database db: String url = "jdbc:odbc:db"; Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(url, "cerami", "password");

27. Create a Statement Object The JDBC Statement object sends SQL statements to the database. The JDBC Statement object sends SQL statements to the database. Statement objects are created from active Connection objects. Statement objects are created from active Connection objects. For example: For example: Statement stat = con.createStatement(); Statement stat = con.createStatement(); SQL calls can then be made on the database through statement object SQL calls can then be made on the database through statement object

28. Execute a Query executeQuery(String query) executeQuery(String query) Executes a select query on the database and returns the selected data in the form of a ResultSet object Executes a select query on the database and returns the selected data in the form of a ResultSet object The returned ResultSet object may be empty but cannot be null The returned ResultSet object may be empty but cannot be null Throws SQLException Throws SQLException ResultSet rs = stat.executeQuery (“Select * from table”); ResultSet rs = stat.executeQuery (“Select * from table”);

29. Execute Query executeUpdate(String query) executeUpdate(String query) Executes INSER, UPDATE, DELETE SQL statements Executes INSER, UPDATE, DELETE SQL statements Returns an integer value representing the number of rows affected by this operation Returns an integer value representing the number of rows affected by this operation Throws SQLException Throws SQLException Also supports DDL statements CREATE TABLE, DROP TABLE, ALTER TABLE Also supports DDL statements CREATE TABLE, DROP TABLE, ALTER TABLE int rows = executeUpdate(“delete * from table”); int rows = executeUpdate(“delete * from table”);

30. Process the Result A ResultSet contains the results of the SQL query A ResultSet contains the results of the SQL query ResultSet Methods ResultSet Methods All methods can throw a SQLException All methods can throw a SQLException Close() Close() Releases the JDBC and database resources Releases the JDBC and database resources A ResultSet object is automatically closed when its associated statement object runs a new query. A ResultSet object is automatically closed when its associated statement object runs a new query. getMetaData() getMetaData() Returns ResultSetMetaData object Returns ResultSetMetaData object This object contains information about the columns in the ResultSet. This object contains information about the columns in the ResultSet.

31. ResultSet next() next() Attempts to move to the next row of data in the ResultSet Attempts to move to the next row of data in the ResultSet Returns true if successful and Returns true if successful and False otherwise False otherwise First call to the next() method positions the cursor at the first data row First call to the next() method positions the cursor at the first data row

32. ResultSet findColumn(String) findColumn(String) Maps a ResultSet column name to a ResultSet column index Maps a ResultSet column name to a ResultSet column index Returns an integer value that corresponds to the specified column name Returns an integer value that corresponds to the specified column name

33. ResultSet getXXX(String), getXXX(int) getXXX(String), getXXX(int) Returns the value from the column specified by column name (String version) or column index (int) as an XXX Java type Returns the value from the column specified by column name (String version) or column index (int) as an XXX Java type First column index is 1 not 0 First column index is 1 not 0 Returns 0 or null, if the value is a SQL NULL Returns 0 or null, if the value is a SQL NULL Can call wasNull(). Can call wasNull(). Legal getXxx types Legal getXxx types doublebyteint Date Stringfloat short long Time Object

34. Close the Connection To close the database connection To close the database connection stat.close(); stat.close(); con.close() con.close()

36. Transaction Management Transactions are not explicitly opened and closed Transactions are not explicitly opened and closed Instead, the connection has a state called AutoCommit mode Instead, the connection has a state called AutoCommit mode if AutoCommit is true, then every statement is automatically committed if AutoCommit is true, then every statement is automatically committed default case: true default case: true

37. Transaction Management Connection.setAutoCommit(boolean) if AutoCommit is false, then every statement is added to an ongoing transaction if AutoCommit is false, then every statement is added to an ongoing transaction you must explicitly commit or rollback the transaction using Connection.commit() and Connection.rollback() you must explicitly commit or rollback the transaction using Connection.commit() and Connection.rollback()
