JdbcUtils

public JdbcUtils()
Method Detail

closeConnection

public static void closeConnection(Connection con)
Close the given JDBC Connection and ignore any thrown exception. This is useful for typical finally blocks in manual JDBC code.

Parameters:
con - the JDBC Connection to close (may be null)

closeStatement

public static void closeStatement(Statement stmt)
Close the given JDBC Statement and ignore any thrown exception. This is useful for typical finally blocks in manual JDBC code.

Parameters:
stmt - the JDBC Statement to close (may be null)

closeResultSet

public static void closeResultSet(ResultSet rs)
Close the given JDBC ResultSet and ignore any thrown exception. This is useful for typical finally blocks in manual JDBC code.

Parameters:
rs - the JDBC ResultSet to close (may be null)

getResultSetValue

public static Object getResultSetValue(ResultSet rs,
                                       int index)
                                throws SQLException
Retrieve a JDBC column value from a ResultSet, using the most appropriate value type. The returned value should be a detached value object, not having any ties to the active ResultSet: in particular, it should not be a Blob or Clob object but rather a byte array respectively String representation.

Uses the getObject(index) method, but includes additional "hacks" to get around Oracle 10g returning a non-standard object for its TIMESTAMP datatype and a java.sql.Date for DATE columns leaving out the time portion: These columns will explicitly be extracted as standard java.sql.Timestamp object.

Parameters:
rs - is the ResultSet holding the data
index - is the column index
Returns:
the value object
Throws:
SQLException - if thrown by the JDBC API
See Also:
Blob, Clob, Timestamp

extractDatabaseMetaData

public static Object extractDatabaseMetaData(DataSource dataSource,
                                             DatabaseMetaDataCallback action)
                                      throws MetaDataAccessException
Extract database meta data via the given DatabaseMetaDataCallback.

This method will open a connection to the database and retrieve the database metadata. Since this method is called before the exception translation feature is configured for a datasource, this method can not rely on the SQLException translation functionality.

Any exceptions will be wrapped in a MetaDataAccessException. This is a checked exception and any calling code should catch and handle this exception. You can just log the error and hope for the best, but there is probably a more serious error that will reappear when you try to access the database again.

Parameters:
dataSource - the DataSource to extract metadata for
action - callback that will do the actual work
Returns:
object containing the extracted information, as returned by the DatabaseMetaDataCallback's processMetaData method
Throws:
MetaDataAccessException - if meta data access failed

extractDatabaseMetaData

public static Object extractDatabaseMetaData(DataSource dataSource,
                                             String metaDataMethodName)
                                      throws MetaDataAccessException
Call the specified method on DatabaseMetaData for the given DataSource, and extract the invocation result.

Parameters:
dataSource - the DataSource to extract meta data for
metaDataMethodName - the name of the DatabaseMetaData method to call
Returns:
the object returned by the specified DatabaseMetaData method
Throws:
MetaDataAccessException - if we couldn't access the DatabaseMetaData or failed to invoke the specified method
See Also:
DatabaseMetaData

supportsBatchUpdates

public static boolean supportsBatchUpdates(Connection con)
Return whether the given JDBC driver supports JDBC 2.0 batch updates.

Typically invoked right before execution of a given set of statements: to decide whether the set of SQL statements should be executed through the JDBC 2.0 batch mechanism or simply in a traditional one-by-one fashion.

Logs a warning if the "supportsBatchUpdates" methods throws an exception and simply returns false in that case.

Parameters:
con - the Connection to check
Returns:
whether JDBC 2.0 batch updates are supported
See Also:
DatabaseMetaData.supportsBatchUpdates()

countParameterPlaceholders

public static int countParameterPlaceholders(String str,
                                             char placeholder,
                                             char delim)
Count the occurrences of the character placeholder in an SQL string str. The character placeholder is not counted if it appears within a literal as determined by the delim that is passed in. Delegates to the overloaded method that takes a String with multiple delimiters.

Parameters:
str - string to search in. Returns 0 if this is null.
placeholder - the character to search for and count
delim - the delimiter for character literals

countParameterPlaceholders

public static int countParameterPlaceholders(String str,
                                             char placeholder,
                                             String delimiters)
Count the occurrences of the character placeholder in an SQL string str. The character placeholder is not counted if it appears within a literal as determined by the delimiters that are passed in.

Examples: If one of the delimiters is the single quote, and the character to count the occurrences of is the question mark, then:

The big ? 'bad wolf?' gives a count of one.
The big ?? bad wolf gives a count of two.
The big 'ba''ad?' ? wolf gives a count of one.

The grammar of the string passed in should obey the rules of the JDBC spec which is close to no rules at all: one placeholder per parameter, and it should be valid SQL for the target database.

Parameters:
str - string to search in. Returns 0 if this is null
placeholder - the character to search for and count.
delimiters - the delimiters for character literals.

isNumeric

public static boolean isNumeric(int sqlType)
Check whether the given SQL type is numeric.

Parameters:
sqlType - the SQL type to be checked
Returns:
whether the type is numeric

translateType

public static int translateType(int sqlType)
Deprecated. This is only used by deprecated constructors in SqlFunction and will be removed alongside those constructors.

Translate a SQL type into one of a few values: All string types are translated to String. All integer types are translated to Integer. All real types are translated to Double. All other types are left untouched.

Parameters:
sqlType - the type to be translated into a simpler type
Returns:
the new SQL type
