What is JDBC

• It’s a javasoft specification that defines:

• An api that drivers have to complie to– Includes X/Open types– The DBMS must support SQL92

• A uniform api that programmer can use– Write one code, access many DB– Oracle, postgreSQL, DB2, mySQL

5

Motivations

• Need for accessing DB from Java application, applet, servlet, etc.

• Complete java cross-platform with a cross platform DB access

• DB are core system of many client/server systems

• Internet openess implies many different sources (Sybase, DB2, Oracle, etc.)

• Benefits of ODBC and Java technologies

6

Details

• Drivers do not need to be pre-installed• Some facilities for applets (special security

are in the sandbox)• URL syntax for locating a resource• Driver Manager instantiate appropriate driver• SQL types are mapped into java types

7

How-to start

• Register and instantiate the driver– jdbc.driver property (from command line)

• Java –Djdbc.drivers=org.postgresql.Driver example

– Hardcoded• Class.forName(« org.postgresql.Driver »);

– This allow runtime loading of a specific driver !

8

Connecting

• Connecting to a DB– Db=DriverManager.getConnection(url, usr, pwd);

• No DB specification (the driver has been loaded and will be selected by the DriverManager regarding url).

• URL syntax:– Jdbc:postgresql:database

– Jdbc:postgresql://host/dabase

– Jdbc:postgresql://host:port/dabase

– Jdbc:postgresql:database?user=me

– Jdbc:postgresql:database?user=me&password=mypass

9

Connection methods

• setAutoCommit();– Transaction mode– Rollback();– Commit();

• PreparedStatement

• CreateStatement

10

Doing a statement

• St = db.createStatement();– St.executeUpdate(« sql code »);– St.executeQuery(« sql code »);– St.execute(« sql code »);– St.addBatch(« sql statement »);– St.executeBatch();

Resultset

• Result=executeUpdate(« select * from toto»);– Result.getMetaData();

Retrieves the number, types and properties of this ResultSet object's columns

– Result.next() • Moves the cursor down one row from its current position

– Result.getObject(i) Gets the value of the designated column in the current row

of this ResultSet object as an Object in the Java programming language

15

JAVA with JDBC/postgreSQL @TCUthings to remember

Include the jar filepostgresql-8.0-314.jdbc3.jar

into your classpath when you compile your program

Include the the following Import in your program import java.sql.*; // postgreSQL classes

Follow the format of the program provided

Provide the adequate parameters in the connection c = DriverManager.getConnection ("jdbc:postgresql://riogrande.cs.tcu.edu/name", ”name", ”pwd")

JAVA with JDBC/postgreSQL @TCUthings to remember 2

When using read You must turn on the readOnly flag

of the connection using setReadOnly(true);When using rollback/commit

You must turn off the auto commit of the connection using setAutoCommit(false);

Always review the API of the SQL classes

Using large object

• create table images (imgname name,imgoid oid);

• To insert an image, you would use: File file = new File("myimage.gif"); FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file); PreparedStatement ps = conn.prepareStatement("insert

into images values (?,?)"); ps.setString(1,file.getName());

ps.setBinaryStream(2,fis,file.length()); ps.executeUpdate(); ps.close(); fis.close();

18

Retrieving a large object

PreparedStatement ps = con.prepareStatement("select oid from images where name=?");

ps.setString(1,"myimage.gif"); ResultSet rs = ps.executeQuery(); if(rs!=null) {

while(rs.next()) { InputStream is = rs.getBinaryInputStream(1); // use the stream in some way here is.close();

} rs.close();

} ps.close();
