Following is the example which makes use of few navigation methods described in Result Set tutorial.
This sample code was written based on the environment and database setup done in previous chapters.
Copy and paste below code in example.java, compile and run:
//STEP 1. Import required packages import java.sql.*; public class example { // JDBC driver name and database URL static final String JDBC_DRIVER = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"; static final String DB_URL = "jdbc:mysql://localhost/EMP"; // Database credentials static final String USER = "username"; static final String PASS = "password"; public static void main(String[] args) { Connection conn = null; Statement stmt = null; try{ //STEP 2: Register JDBC driver Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"); //STEP 3: Open a connection System.out.println("Connecting to database..."); conn = DriverManager.getConnection(DB_URL,USER,PASS); //STEP 4: Execute a query to create statment with // required arguments for RS example. System.out.println("Creating statement..."); stmt = conn.createStatement( ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE, ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY); String sql; sql = "SELECT id, first, last, age FROM Friends"; ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(sql); // Move cursor to the last row. System.out.println("Moving cursor to the last..."); rs.last(); //STEP 5: Extract data from result set System.out.println("Displaying record..."); //Retrieve by column name int id = rs.getInt("id"); int age = rs.getInt("age"); String first = rs.getString("first"); String last = rs.getString("last"); //Display values System.out.print("ID: " + id); System.out.print(", Age: " + age); System.out.print(", First: " + first); System.out.println(", Last: " + last); // Move cursor to the first row. System.out.println("Moving cursor to the first row..."); rs.first(); //STEP 6: Extract data from result set System.out.println("Displaying record..."); //Retrieve by column name id = rs.getInt("id"); age = rs.getInt("age"); first = rs.getString("first"); last = rs.getString("last"); //Display values System.out.print("ID: " + id); System.out.print(", Age: " + age); System.out.print(", First: " + first); System.out.println(", Last: " + last); // Move cursor to the first row. System.out.println("Moving cursor to the next row..."); rs.next(); //STEP 7: Extract data from result set System.out.println("Displaying record..."); id = rs.getInt("id"); age = rs.getInt("age"); first = rs.getString("first"); last = rs.getString("last"); //Display values System.out.print("ID: " + id); System.out.print(", Age: " + age); System.out.print(", First: " + first); System.out.println(", Last: " + last); //STEP 8: Clean-up environment rs.close(); stmt.close(); conn.close(); }catch(SQLException se){ //Handle errors for JDBC se.printStackTrace(); }catch(Exception e){ //Handle errors for Class.forName e.printStackTrace(); }finally{ //finally block used to close resources try{ if(stmt!=null) stmt.close(); }catch(SQLException se2){ }// nothing we can do try{ if(conn!=null) conn.close(); }catch(SQLException se){ se.printStackTrace(); }//end finally try }//end try System.out.println("Have A Nice Day"); }//end main }//end example
Now compile above example:
C:\>javac example.java C:\>
C:\>java example Connecting to database... Creating statement... Moving cursor to the last... Displaying record... ID: 103, Age: 24, First: Simone, Last: Washer Moving cursor to the first row... Displaying record... ID: 100, Age: 21, First: Sophia, Last: Lomela Moving cursor to the next row... Displaying record... ID: 101, Age: 23, First: Katrina, Last: Kane Have A Nice Day C:\>
