Interface java.sql.PreparedStatement

public 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.

See Also:: prepareStatement, ResultSet

clearParameters(): In general, parameter values remain in force for repeated use of a Statement.
execute(): 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.
executeQuery(): A prepared SQL query is executed and its ResultSet is returned.
executeUpdate(): Execute a SQL INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE statement.
setAsciiStream(int, InputStream, int): 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.
setBigDecimal(int, BigDecimal): Set a parameter to a java.lang.BigDecimal value.
setBinaryStream(int, InputStream, int): 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.
setBoolean(int, boolean): Set a parameter to a Java boolean value.
setByte(int, byte): Set a parameter to a Java byte value.
setBytes(int, byte[]): Set a parameter to a Java array of bytes.
setDate(int, Date): Set a parameter to a java.sql.Date value.
setDouble(int, double): Set a parameter to a Java double value.
setFloat(int, float): Set a parameter to a Java float value.
setInt(int, int): Set a parameter to a Java int value.
setLong(int, long): Set a parameter to a Java long value.
setNull(int, int): Set a parameter to SQL NULL.
setObject(int, Object, int, int): Set the value of a parameter using an object; use the java.lang equivalent objects for integral values.
setObject(int, Object, int): This method is like setObject above, but assumes a scale of zero.
setObject(int, Object): Set the value of a parameter using an object; use the java.lang equivalent objects for integral values.
setShort(int, short): Set a parameter to a Java short value.
setString(int, String): Set a parameter to a Java String value.
setTime(int, Time): Set a parameter to a java.sql.Time value.
setTimestamp(int, Timestamp): Set a parameter to a java.sql.Timestamp value.
setUnicodeStream(int, InputStream, int): 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.

clearParameters

public abstract 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.

execute

public abstract 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:: execute

executeQuery

public abstract java.sql.ResultSet executeQuery() throws SQLException

A prepared SQL query is executed and its ResultSet is returned.

Returns:: a ResultSet that contains the data produced by the query; never null
Throws: SQLException: if a database-access error occurs.

executeUpdate

public abstract int executeUpdate() throws SQLException

Execute a SQL INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE statement. In addition, SQL statements that return nothing such as SQL DDL statements can be executed.

Returns:: either the row count for INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE; or 0 for SQL statements that return nothing
Throws: SQLException: if a database-access error occurs.

setAsciiStream

public abstract void setAsciiStream(int parameterIndex,
                                    InputStream x,
                                    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.

setBigDecimal

public abstract void setBigDecimal(int parameterIndex,
                                   BigDecimal x) throws SQLException

Set a parameter to a java.lang.BigDecimal value. The driver converts this to a SQL NUMERIC value when it sends it to the database.

Parameters:: parameterIndex - the first parameter is 1, the second is 2, ...; x - the parameter value
Throws: SQLException: if a database-access error occurs.

setBinaryStream

public abstract 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.

setDate

public abstract void setDate(int parameterIndex,
                             Date x) throws SQLException

                               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.

Note that this method may be used to pass datatabase- specific abstract data types. This is done by using a Driver- specific Java type and using a targetSqlType of java.sql.types.OTHER.

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.

For all other types this value will be ignored,
Throws: SQLException: if a database-access error occurs.

setObject

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

                                      int length) throws SQLException

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.
