SUMMARY: INNER | FIELD | CONSTR | METHOD | DETAIL: FIELD | CONSTR | METHOD |
A connection (session) with a specific database. Within the context of a Connection, SQL statements are executed and results are returned.
A Connection's database is able to provide information
describing its tables, its supported SQL grammar, its stored
procedures, the capabilities of this connection, and so on. This
information is obtained with the getMetaData
method.
Note: By default the Connection automatically commits changes after executing each statement. If auto commit has been disabled, an explicit commit must be done or database changes will not be saved.

Method Detail |
public Statement createStatement() throws SQLException
Statement
object for sending
SQL statements to the database.
SQL statements without parameters are normally
executed using Statement objects. If the same SQL statement
is executed many times, it is more efficient to use a
PreparedStatement
JDBC 2.0
Result sets created using the returned Statement will have
forward-only type, and read-only concurrency, by default.public PreparedStatement prepareStatement(String sql) throws SQLException
PreparedStatement
object for sending
parameterized SQL statements to the database.
A SQL statement with or without IN parameters can be
pre-compiled and stored in a PreparedStatement object. This
object can then be used to efficiently execute this statement
multiple times.
Note: This method is optimized for handling
parametric SQL statements that benefit from precompilation. If
the driver supports precompilation,
the method prepareStatement
will send
the statement to the database for precompilation. Some drivers
may not support precompilation. In this case, the statement may
not be sent to the database until the PreparedStatement
is
executed. This has no direct effect on users; however, it does
affect which method throws certain SQLExceptions.
JDBC 2.0
Result sets created using the returned PreparedStatement will have
forward-only type and read-only concurrency, by default.
sql
- a SQL statement that may contain one or more '?' IN
parameter placeholderspublic CallableStatement prepareCall(String sql) throws SQLException
CallableStatement
object for calling
database stored procedures.
The CallableStatement provides
methods for setting up its IN and OUT parameters, and
methods for executing the call to a stored procedure.
Note: This method is optimized for handling stored
procedure call statements. Some drivers may send the call
statement to the database when the method prepareCall
is done; others
may wait until the CallableStatement is executed. This has no
direct effect on users; however, it does affect which method
throws certain SQLExceptions.
JDBC 2.0
Result sets created using the returned CallableStatement will have
forward-only type and read-only concurrency, by default.
sql
- a SQL statement that may contain one or more '?'
parameter placeholders. Typically this statement is a JDBC
function call escape string.public String nativeSQL(String sql) throws SQLException
sql
- a SQL statement that may contain one or more '?'
parameter placeholderspublic void setAutoCommit(boolean autoCommit) throws SQLException
commit
or the method rollback
.
By default, new connections are in auto-commit
mode.
The commit occurs when the statement completes or the next
execute occurs, whichever comes first. In the case of
statements returning a ResultSet, the statement completes when
the last row of the ResultSet has been retrieved or the
ResultSet has been closed. In advanced cases, a single
statement may return multiple results as well as output
parameter values. In these cases the commit occurs when all results and
output parameter values have been retrieved.autoCommit
- true enables auto-commit; false disables
auto-commit.public boolean getAutoCommit() throws SQLException

public void commit() throws SQLException

public void rollback() throws SQLException

public void close() throws SQLException
Note: A Connection is automatically closed when it is garbage collected. Certain fatal errors also result in a closed Connection.

public DatabaseMetaData getMetaData() throws SQLException
public void setReadOnly(boolean readOnly) throws SQLException
Note: This method cannot be called while in the middle of a transaction.
readOnly
- true enables read-only mode; false disables
read-only mode.public boolean isReadOnly() throws SQLException
public void setCatalog(String catalog) throws SQLException
public String getCatalog() throws SQLException
public void setTransactionIsolation(int level) throws SQLException

Note: This method cannot be called while in the middle of a transaction.

- one of the TRANSACTION_* isolation values with the
exception of TRANSACTION_NONE; some databases may not support
other valuesDatabaseMetaData.supportsTransactionIsolationLevel(int)
public int getTransactionIsolation() throws SQLException
public SQLWarning getWarnings() throws SQLException
Note: Subsequent warnings will be chained to this SQLWarning.
public void clearWarnings() throws SQLException
Connection
object.
After a call to this method, the method getWarnings
returns null until a new warning is
reported for this Connection.public Statement createStatement(int resultSetType, int resultSetConcurrency) throws SQLException
Statement
object that will generate
ResultSet
objects with the given type and concurrency.
This method is the same as the createStatement
method
above, but it allows the default result set
type and result set concurrency type to be overridden.resultSetType
- a result set type; see ResultSet.TYPE_XXXresultSetConcurrency
- a concurrency type; see ResultSet.CONCUR_XXXpublic PreparedStatement prepareStatement(String sql, int resultSetType, int resultSetConcurrency) throws SQLException
PreparedStatement
object that will generate
ResultSet
objects with the given type and concurrency.
This method is the same as the prepareStatement
method
above, but it allows the default result set
type and result set concurrency type to be overridden.resultSetType
