Java Database Connectivity

Java Database Connectivity (JDBC)

Database and SQL


 SQL commands are divided into four categories

1. DDL (Data Definition Language)


 Define data (create table)

2. DML (Data Manipulation Language)


 Insert ,Delete and update

3. DCL (Data Control Language)


 Grant

4. Query (select)
Java Database Connectivity (JDBC Programming)

 JDBC is an API used to connect Java application with database


 Is used to interact with various type of database i.e. Ms Access, MYSQL and SQL
Server
Java Application
 JDBC Architecture

JDBC API

JDBC DriverManager

JDBC Driver JDBC Driver


Java Database Connectivity (JDBC
Programming)
What is ODBC
 Before JDBC, ODBC API was used to communicate with the databases
 ODBC API uses ODBC drivers to interact with the databases.
 Written in c language
 Platform dependent
 Unsecured
 ODBC requires manual installation of ODBC driver
Java Database Connectivity (Types of JDBC
JDBC Driver Drivers)
 Is a software component that enables java application to interact with the database .
 There are four types of JDBC drivers

1. JDBC-ODBC bridge driver


‾ Uses ODBC driver to connect to the database
‾ It converts JDBC method calls into the ODBC function calls
‾ Easy to use
‾ Can be easily connected to any database
‾ Performance degraded
‾ The ODBC driver needs to be installed
Java Database Connectivity (Types of JDBC
2. Native – API driver Drivers)
‾ Uses client side libraries of the database
‾ Converts JDBC method calls into native calls of the database
‾ It is written in java
‾ Performance upgraded than JDBC-ODBC bridge driver
‾ The native driver needs to be installed

3. Network protocol driver


‾ Uses middleware (Application server) that converts JDBC calls into database protocol
‾ Written in java
‾ No client side library is required
‾ Network support is required
‾ Maintenance of network protocol driver becomes costly
Java Database Connectivity (Types of JDBC
Drivers)
4. Thin driver
‾ Thin driver converts JDBC calls into database protocol
‾ Written in java
‾ Better performance that all other drivers
‾ No software is required
‾ Drivers depends on the database
Java Database Connectivity (Overview of JDBC
API)
JDBC API
 Is a java application programming interface to develop DBMS independent java
applications using a uniform interface.
 Consists of classes and interfaces

The driver Interface


 The driver interface is database specific

 The driver must be loaded before connecting to a database, to locate, load and link the
driver class.
Java Database Connectivity (Overview of JDBC
API)
The DriverManager class
 A layer of JDBC working b/n the driver and the user

 It keep track the registered drivers connection between the database and the driver

The Connection Interface


 A connection instance represents a session with a specific database

 SQL statements are sent to the database for execution and returns the results of the
execution
Java Database Connectivity (Overview of JDBC
API)
The Statement Interface
 Is used to execute a static SQL statement

 executeQuery

 ExecuteUpdate

The ResultSet Interface


 Provides access to a table of data generated by executing a statement

 It maintains a cursor pointing to its current row of data

 Cursor movement methods (absolute, first, last, next and previous)


Java Database Connectivity (Overview of JDBC
API)
The SQL Exception classes
 Provides information on a database access error.

The DatabaseMetaData Interface


 Enables to obtain information about the database

 E.g. tables, columns, PK, FK


Six basic steps in using JDBC

 Load the driver

 Establish the connection

 Create the statement object

 Execute query

 Process the result

 Close the connection


Java Database Connectivity ( Steps to connect a java application to
database )

1. Register the driver


 Class.forName() is used to load the driver

 E.g. Class. forName(“Com.mysql.jdbc.Driver”);

2. Create a connection
 getConnection() method of DriverManger class is used to create a connection

 getConnection(String url, String user, String Pass);

 E.g. getConection(“Jdbc:mysql, localhost:3306/Student, “user”, “pass””);

3. Create SQL statement


 createStatment() method is invoked on current connection object to create a SQL statement.

 Statement s= con.createStatement();

database )

4. Execute SQL statement


 executeQuery() method of statement interface is used to execute SQL statement

 E.g. ResultSet rs= s.executeQuery(“select * from user”);

5. Closing the connection


 The close() method connection interface is used to close the connection.
