Retrieving Result Set Data Sample
This Microsoft SQL Server 2005 JDBC Driver sample application demonstrates how to retrieve a set of data from a SQL Server database, and then display that data.
The code file for this sample is named retrieveRS.java, and it can be found in the following location:
<installation directory>\sqljdbc_<version>\<language>\help\samples\resultsets
Requirements
To run this sample application, you must set the classpath to include the sqljdbc.jar file. If the classpath is missing an entry for sqljdbc.jar, the sample application will throw the common "Class not found" exception. You will also need access to the SQL Server 2000 AdventureWorks sample database.
For more information about how to set the classpath, see Using the JDBC Driver.
Example
In the following example, the sample code makes a connection to the AdventureWorks sample database. Then, using an SQL statement with the SQLServerStatement object, it runs the SQL statement and places the data that it returns into a SQLServerResultSet object.
Next, the sample code calls the custom displayRow method to iterate through the rows of data that are contained in the result set, and uses the getString method to display some of the data that it contains.
import java.sql.*;
public class retrieveRS {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Create a variable for the connection string.
String connectionUrl = "jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433;" +
"databaseName=AdventureWorks;integratedSecurity=true;";
// Declare the JDBC objects.
Connection con = null;
Statement stmt = null;
ResultSet rs = null;
try {
// Establish the connection.
Class.forName("com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver");
con = DriverManager.getConnection(connectionUrl);
// Create and execute an SQL statement that returns a
// set of data and then display it.
String SQL = "SELECT * FROM Production.Product;";
stmt = con.createStatement();
rs = stmt.executeQuery(SQL);
displayRow("PRODUCTS", rs);
}
// Handle any errors that may have occurred.
catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
finally {
if (rs != null) try { rs.close(); } catch(Exception e) {}
if (stmt != null) try { stmt.close(); } catch(Exception e) {}
if (con != null) try { con.close(); } catch(Exception e) {}
}
}
public static void displayRow(String title, ResultSet rs) {
try {
System.out.println(title);
while (rs.next()) {
System.out.println(rs.getString("ProductNumber") + " : " + rs.getString("Name"));
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
