JDBC – Java Database
Connectivity
Representation and Management
of Data on the Internet
1
Introduction to JDBC
• JDBC is used for accessing databases
from Java applications
• Information is transferred from relations
to objects and vice-versa
– databases optimized for searching/indexing
– objects optimized for engineering/flexibility

JDBC Architecture (cont.)
Application
JDBC
Driver
• Java code calls JDBC library
• JDBC loads a driver
• Driver talks to a particular database
• Can have more than one driver -> more than one
database
• Ideal: can change database engines without
changing any application code
Seven Steps
• Load the driver
• Define the connection URL
• Establish the connection
• Create a Statement object stmt
• Execute a query using stmt
• Process the result
• Close the connection
5
Loading the Driver
• We can register the Driver indirectly using the
Java statement:
Class.forName(“oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
• Calling
Class.forName
causes the Driver class to be
loaded
• When this class is loaded, it automatically
– creates an instance of itself
– registers this instance with the DriverManager
6
Another Option
• Another option is to create an instance of
the driver and register it with the Driver
Manager:
Driver driver = new oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver();
DriverManager.registerDriver(driver);
7
An Example
// A driver for imaginary1
Class.forName("ORG.img.imgSQL1.imaginary1Driver");
// A driver for imaginary2
Driver driver = new ORG.img.imgSQL2.imaginary2Driver();
DriverManager.registerDriver(driver);
//A driver for oracle
Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
imaginary1 imaginary2
Oracle
Registered Drivers
8
Connecting to the Database
• Every database is identified by a URL
• Given a URL, DriverManager is asked to
find the driver that can talk to the
corresponding database
• DriverManager tries all registered
drivers, until a suitable one is found
9
Connecting to the Database
Connection con = DriverManager.
getConnection("jdbc.imaginaryDB1");
acceptsURL(“jdbc.imaginaryDB1”)?

The URLs in CS
In CS, a URL has the following structure:
jdbc:oracle:thin:name/password@sol4:1521:stud
Also, your login

11
Interaction with the Database
• We use Statement objects in order to
– Extract data from the database
– Update the database
• Three different interfaces are used:
Statement, PreparedStatement, CallableStatement
• All are interfaces, thus cannot be instantiated
• They are created by the Connection
Querying with Statement
String queryStr =
"SELECT * FROM Member " +
"WHERE Lower(Name) = 'harry potter'";
Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(queryStr);
• The executeQuery method returns a ResultSet
object representing the query result.
•Will be discussed later…
13
Changing DB with Statement
String deleteStr =
“DELETE FROM Member " +
"WHERE Lower(Name) = ‘harry potter’";
Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
int delnum = stmt.executeUpdate(deleteStr);
• executeUpdate is used for data manipulation: insert,
delete, update, create table, etc. (anything other than
querying!)
• executeUpdate returns the number of rows modified
14
About Prepared Statements
• Prepared Statements are used for queries that
are executed many times
• They are parsed (compiled) by the DBMS only
once
• Column values can be set after compilation
• Instead of values, use ‘?’
• Hence, a Prepared Statement is statement that
contains placeholders to be substituted later
with actual values
15
Querying with PreparedStatement
String queryStr =
"SELECT * FROM Items " +
"WHERE Name = ? and Cost < ?”;
PreparedStatement pstmt =
con.prepareStatement(queryStr);
pstmt.setString(1, “t-shirt”);
pstmt.setInt(2, 1000);
ResultSet rs = pstmt.executeQuery();
16
Changing DB with
PreparedStatement
String deleteStr =
“DELETE FROM Items " +
"WHERE Name = ? and Cost > ?”;
PreparedStatement pstmt =
con.prepareStatement(deleteStr);
pstmt.setString(1, “t-shirt”);
pstmt.setInt(2, 1000);
int delnum = pstmt.executeUpdate();
17
Statements vs.
PreparedStatements: Be Careful!
• Are these the same? What do they do?
String val = “abc”;
PreparedStatement pstmt =
con.prepareStatement(“select * from R where
A=?”);
pstmt.setString(1, val);
ResultSet rs = pstmt.executeQuery();
String val = “abc”;
Statement stmt = con.createStatement( );
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(“select * from R
where A=” + val);
18
Statements vs.
PreparedStatements: Be Careful!
• Will this work?
PreparedStatement pstmt =
con.prepareStatement(“select * from ?”);
pstmt.setString(1, myFavoriteTableString);
• No!!! A ‘?’ can only be used to represent a
column value
• WHY?
19
Timeout
• Use setQueryTimeOut(int seconds) of
Statement to set a timeout for the driver
to wait for a statement to be completed
• If the operation is not completed in the
given time, an SQLException is thrown
• What is it good for?
20
ResultSet
• A ResultSet provides access to a table of data
generated by executing a Statement
• Only one ResultSet per Statement can be open
at once
• The table rows are retrieved in sequence
– A ResultSet maintains a cursor pointing to its current
row of data
– The 'next' method moves the cursor to the next row
ResultSet Methods
• boolean next()
– activates the next row
– the first call to next() activates the first row
– returns false if there are no more rows
• void close()
– disposes of the ResultSet
– allows you to re-use the Statement that
created it
– automatically called by most Statement
methods
ResultSet Methods
• Type getType(int columnIndex)
– returns the given field as the given type
– fields indexed starting at 1 (not 0)
• Type getType(String columnName)
– same, but uses name of field
– less efficient
• int findColumn(String columnName)
– looks up column index given column name
ResultSet Methods
• String getString(int columnIndex)
• boolean getBoolean(int columnIndex)
• byte getByte(int columnIndex)
• short getShort(int columnIndex)
• int getInt(int columnIndex)
• long getLong(int columnIndex)
• float getFloat(int columnIndex)
• double getDouble(int columnIndex)
• Date getDate(int columnIndex)
• Time getTime(int columnIndex)
• Timestamp getTimestamp(int columnIndex)
ResultSet Methods
• String getString(String columnName)
• boolean getBoolean(String columnName)
• byte getByte(String columnName)
• short getShort(String columnName)
• int getInt(String columnName)
• long getLong(String columnName)
• float getFloat(String columnName)
• double getDouble(String columnName)
• Date getDate(String columnName)
• Time getTime(String columnName)
• Timestamp getTimestamp(String columnName)
ResultSet Example
Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = stmt.
executeQuery("select name,age from Employees");
// Print the result
while(rs.next()) {
System.out.print(rs.getString(1) + ”:“);
System.out.println(rs.getShort(“age”)+”“);
}
26
Null Values
• In SQL, NULL means the field is empty
• Not the same as 0 or “”
• In JDBC, you must explicitly ask if a field
is null by calling ResultSet.isNull(column)
• For example, getInt(column) will return 0
if the value is either 0 or null!!
Null Values
• When inserting null values into
placeholders of Prepared Statements:
– Use the method setNull(index, sqlType) for
primitive types (e.g. INTEGER, REAL);
– You may also use the setXXX(index, null) for
object types (e.g. STRING, DATE).
28
ResultSet Meta-Data
A ResultSetMetaData is an object that can be used
to get information about the properties of the
columns in a ResultSet object.
An example: write the columns of the result set
ResultSetMetaData rsmd = rs.getMetaData();
int numcols = rsmd.getColumnCount();
for (int i = 1 ; i <= numcols; i++) {
System.out.print(rsmd.getColumnLabel(i)+” “);
}

31
Database Time
• Times in SQL are notoriously non-standard
• Java defines three classes to help
• java.sql.Date
– year, month, day
• java.sql.Time
– hours, minutes, seconds
• java.sql.Timestamp
– year, month, day, hours, minutes, seconds,
nanoseconds
– usually use this one
Cleaning Up After Yourself
• Remember to close the Connections,
Statements, PreparedStatements and
ResultSets
con.close();
stmt.close();
pstmt.close();
rs.close()
33
Dealing With Exceptions
• An exception can have more exceptions in
it.
catch (SQLException e) {
while (e != null) {
System.out.println(e.getSQLState());
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
System.out.println(e.getErrorCode());
e = e.getNextException();
}
}
34
Advanced Topics
35
LOBs: Large OBjects
• Two types:
– CLOB: Character large object (a lot of characters)
– BLOB: Binary large object (a lot of bytes)
• Actual data is not stored in the table with the
CLOB/BLOB column. Only a pointer to the data
is stored there
• I will show how to use a BLOB; CLOBs are
similar
36
Retrieving a BLOB
create table userImages(
user varchar(50),
image BLOB
);
ResultSet rs =
stmt.executeQuery(“select image from
userImages”);
while (rs.next) {
Blob b = rs.getBlob(“image”);
InputStream stream = b.getBinaryStream();
doSomething(stream);
}
37
Inserting a BLOB
PreparedStatement pstmt =
con.prepareStatement(“insert into
userImages values(‘snoopy’, ?)”);
File file = new File(“snoopy.jpg”);
InputStream fin = new FileInputStream(file);
pstmt.setBinaryStream (1, fin, file.length());
pstmt.executeUpdate();
38
Transactions and JDBC
• Transaction = more than one statement which
must all succeed (or all fail) together
• If one fails, the system must reverse all
previous actions
• Also can’t leave DB in inconsistent state halfway
through a transaction
• COMMIT = complete transaction
• ROLLBACK = abort
39
Example
• Suppose we want to transfer money from bank
account 13 to account 72:
PreparedStatement pstmt =
con.prepareStatement(“update BankAccount
set amount = amount + ?
where accountId = ?”);
pstmt.setInt(1,-100);
pstmt.setInt(2, 13);
pstmt.executeUpdate();
What happens if this
pstmt.setInt(1, 100);
update fails?
pstmt.setInt(2, 72);
pstmt.executeUpdate();
40
Transaction Management
• Transactions are not explicitly opened and
closed
• The connection has a state called AutoCommit
mode
• if AutoCommit is true, then every statement is
automatically committed
• if AutoCommit is false, then every statement is
added to an ongoing transaction
• Default: true
41
AutoCommit
setAutoCommit(boolean val)
• If you set AutoCommit to false, you must explicitly
commit or rollback the transaction using
Connection.commit() and Connection.rollback()
• In order to work with LOBs, you usually have to set
AutoCommit to false, while retrieving the data
• Note: DDL statements in a transaction may be ignored
or may cause a commit to occur. The behavior is DBMS
dependent
42
Fixed Example
con.setAutoCommit(false);
try {
PreparedStatement pstmt =
con.prepareStatement(“update BankAccount
set amount = amount + ?
where accountId = ?”);
pstmt.setInt(1,-100); pstmt.setInt(2, 13);
pstmt.executeUpdate();
pstmt.setInt(1, 100); pstmt.setInt(2, 72);
pstmt.executeUpdate();
con.commit();
catch (Exception e) {
con.rollback();
}
43
Isolation Levels
• How do different transactions interact? Do they
see what another has written?
• Possible problems:
– Dirty Reads: a transaction may read uncommitted data
– Unrepeatable Reads: two different results are seen
when reading a tuple twice in the same transaction
– Phantom Reads: tuples are added to a table between
two readings of this table in a single transaction
44
Isolation Levels
JDBC defines four isolation modes:
Level
Dirty
Unrepeatable
Phantom
Read
Read
Read
Read Uncommited
Yes
Yes
Yes
Read Commited
No
Yes

Repeatable Read
No

No
45
Isolation Levels
• Set the transaction mode using
setTransactionIsolation() of class Connection
• Oracle only implements:
– TRANSACTION_SERIALIZABLE
• An exception may be thrown if serializability isn’t possible
– TRANSACTION_READ_COMMITED
• This is the default
46
Level: READ_COMMITED
• Transaction 1:
• Transaction 2:
insert into A values(1)
select * from A
insert into A values(2)
select * from A
commit
Question: Is it
possible for a
transaction to see 1
in A, but not 2?
1
2
Table: A
Question: Is it
possible for the 2
queries to give
different answers
for level
SERIALIZABLE?
