Interface java.sql.PreparedStatement

All Known Subinterfaces:

CallableStatement

public abstract interface PreparedStatement

extends Statement

A SQL statement is pre-compiled and stored in a PreparedStatement object. This object can then be used to efficiently execute this statement multiple times.

Note: The setXXX methods for setting IN parameter values must specify types that are compatible with the defined SQL type of the input parameter. For instance, if the IN parameter has SQL type Integer then setInt should be used.

If arbitrary parameter type conversions are required then the setObject method should be used with a target SQL type.

Connection.prepareStatement(java.lang.String), ResultSet

                           int length)
                    throws SQLException

When a very large ASCII value is input to a LONGVARCHAR parameter, it may be more practical to send it via a java.io.InputStream. JDBC will read the data from the stream as needed, until it reaches end-of-file. The JDBC driver will do any necessary conversion from ASCII to the database char format.

Note: This stream object can either be a standard Java stream object or your own subclass that implements the standard interface.

Parameters:

parameterIndex - the first parameter is 1, the second is 2, ...

x - the java input stream which contains the ASCII parameter value

length - the number of bytes in the stream

Throws:

SQLException - if a database-access error occurs.

                             InputStream x,
                             int length)
                      throws SQLException

Deprecated.

When a very large UNICODE value is input to a LONGVARCHAR parameter, it may be more practical to send it via a java.io.InputStream. JDBC will read the data from the stream as needed, until it reaches end-of-file. The JDBC driver will do any necessary conversion from UNICODE to the database char format.

Note: This stream object can either be a standard Java stream object or your own subclass that implements the standard interface.

Parameters:

parameterIndex - the first parameter is 1, the second is 2, ...

x - the java input stream which contains the UNICODE parameter value

length - the number of bytes in the stream

Throws:

SQLException - if a database-access error occurs.

setBinaryStream

public void setBinaryStream(int parameterIndex,
                            InputStream x,
                            int length)
                     throws SQLException

When a very large binary value is input to a LONGVARBINARY parameter, it may be more practical to send it via a java.io.InputStream. JDBC will read the data from the stream as needed, until it reaches end-of-file.

Note: This stream object can either be a standard Java stream object or your own subclass that implements the standard interface.

Parameters:

parameterIndex - the first parameter is 1, the second is 2, ...

x - the java input stream which contains the binary parameter value

length - the number of bytes in the stream

Throws:

SQLException - if a database-access error occurs.

clearParameters

public void clearParameters()
                     throws SQLException

In general, parameter values remain in force for repeated use of a Statement. Setting a parameter value automatically clears its previous value. However, in some cases it is useful to immediately release the resources used by the current parameter values; this can be done by calling clearParameters.

Throws:

SQLException - if a database-access error occurs.

setObject

public void setObject(int parameterIndex,
                      Object x,
                      int targetSqlType,
                      int scale)
               throws SQLException

Set the value of a parameter using an object; use the java.lang equivalent objects for integral values.

The given Java object will be converted to the targetSqlType before being sent to the database. If the object is of a class implementing SQLData, the JDBC driver should call its method writeSQL() to write it to the SQL data stream. else If the object is of a class implementing Ref, Blob, Clob, Struct, or Array then pass it to the database as a value of the corresponding SQL type.

Note that this method may be used to pass datatabase- specific abstract data types.

Parameters:

parameterIndex - The first parameter is 1, the second is 2, ...

x - The object containing the input parameter value

targetSqlType - The SQL type (as defined in java.sql.Types) to be sent to the database. The scale argument may further qualify this type.

scale - For java.sql.Types.DECIMAL or java.sql.Types.NUMERIC types this is the number of digits after the decimal. For all other types this value will be ignored,

Throws:

SQLException - if a database-access error occurs.

setObject

public void setObject(int parameterIndex,
                      Object x,
                      int targetSqlType)
               throws SQLException

This method is like setObject above, but assumes a scale of zero.

Throws:

SQLException - if a database-access error occurs.

setObject

public void setObject(int parameterIndex,
                      Object x)
               throws SQLException

Set the value of a parameter using an object; use the java.lang equivalent objects for integral values.

The JDBC specification specifies a standard mapping from Java Object types to SQL types. The given argument java object will be converted to the corresponding SQL type before being sent to the database.

Note that this method may be used to pass datatabase specific abstract data types, by using a Driver specific Java type. If the object is of a class implementing SQLData, the JDBC driver should call its method writeSQL() to write it to the SQL data stream. else If the object is of a class implementing Ref, Blob, Clob, Struct, or Array then pass it to the database as a value of the corresponding SQL type. Raise an exception if there is an ambiguity, for example, if the object is of a class implementing more than one of those interfaces.

Parameters:

parameterIndex - The first parameter is 1, the second is 2, ...

x - The object containing the input parameter value

Throws:

SQLException - if a database-access error occurs.

execute

public boolean execute()
                throws SQLException

Some prepared statements return multiple results; the execute method handles these complex statements as well as the simpler form of statements handled by executeQuery and executeUpdate.

Throws:

SQLException - if a database-access error occurs.

See Also:

Statement.execute(java.lang.String)

addBatch

public void addBatch()
              throws SQLException

                        throws SQLException

JDBC 2.0 When a very large UNICODE value is input to a LONGVARCHAR parameter, it may be more practical to send it via a java.io.Reader. JDBC will read the data from the stream as needed, until it reaches end-of-file. The JDBC driver will do any necessary conversion from UNICODE to the database char format.

Note: This stream object can either be a standard Java stream object or your own subclass that implements the standard interface.
