Study Notes
JavaScript and Frames
- Frames are a feature used for web pages.
- Disabling JavaScript in your browser prevents the document from functioning as intended.
- If JavaScript is disabled, you will see a message indicating that frames are required.
- A link to a non-frame version of the document is provided as an alternative.
Browser Functionality
- The text indicates the document is designed to be viewed using browser frames.
- Frames allow for a page to be split into multiple sections, each with its own independent content.
- The text specifies that the document is unsuitable for use with web clients that don't support frames.
- A link is provided for viewing the document in a non-frame format.
ResultSet Interface
- Represents a database result set: Usually generated by executing a statement that queries a database.
- Maintains a cursor: Points to the current row of data.
-
Cursor initially positioned before the first row: The
next()
method moves the cursor to the next row. -
Default
ResultSet
object: Not updatable and has a forward-only cursor. -
Methods for column value retrieval:
getBoolean()
,getLong()
, etc. using column index or name. - Column indexing: Starts from 1.
-
ResultSet
objects can be scrollable and/or updatable:TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE
,CONCUR_UPDATABLE
are used to achieve this. - Getter methods: Attempt to convert underlying data to the specified Java type.
- Column names are case insensitive: When several columns have the same name, the first match is returned.
-
Updater methods: Added in JDBC 2.0 API.
- Used to update a column value in the current row.
- Used to insert a new row into the
ResultSet
and the data source.
-
ResultSet
object automatically closed: When theStatement
object that generated it is closed, re-executed, or used to retrieve the next result from a sequence of multiple results. -
ResultSetMetaData
object: Provides information about the columns of a result set - number, types, and properties.

- Determines if the cursor is on the last row of the
ResultSet
object. - May be expensive as the JDBC driver might need to fetch ahead one row.
ResultSet methods
-
boolean isLast()
: Determines if the cursor is positioned on the last row of the result set. It returnstrue
if the cursor is on the last row andfalse
otherwise. This method is optional for result sets with a type ofTYPE_FORWARD_ONLY
. -
void beforeFirst()
: Moves the cursor to the beginning of the result set, just before the first row. This has no effect if there are no rows in the result set. -
void afterLast()
: Moves the cursor to the end of the result set, just after the last row. This has no effect if there are no rows in the result set. -
boolean first()
: Moves the cursor to the first row of the result set. Returnstrue
if there is a row,false
otherwise. -
boolean last()
: Moves the cursor to the last row of the result set. Returnstrue
if there is a row,false
otherwise. -
int getRow()
: Returns the current row number (1-based index). Returns 0 if there is no current row. This method is optional forTYPE_FORWARD_ONLY
result sets. -
boolean absolute(int row)
: Moves the cursor to the specified row number. Positive values move the cursor forward, negative values move backward. A zero value moves the cursor before the first row. It returnstrue
if the cursor is moved to a valid row,false
if beyond the first or last row. -
boolean relative(int rows)
: Moves the cursor relative to the current row, movingrows
number of rows forward or backward. This method is identical tonext()
forrows = 1
andprevious()
forrows = -1
. It returnstrue
if the cursor is on a valid row andfalse
otherwise. -
boolean previous()
: Moves the cursor to the previous row. Returnstrue
if positioned on a valid row,false
if before the first row. -
void setFetchDirection(int direction)
: Sets the fetch direction for the result set. The possible values are:FETCH_FORWARD
,FETCH_REVERSE
, andFETCH_UNKNOWN
. -
int getFetchDirection()
: Returns the current fetch direction of the result set. -
void setFetchSize(int rows)
: Hints the JDBC driver on the number of rows to fetch when more are needed. A zero value means the driver can choose the size. -
int getFetchSize()
: Returns the current fetch size of the result set. -
int getType()
: Returns the type of the result set, which can be one of the following:TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY
,TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE
, orTYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE
. -
int getConcurrency()
: Returns the concurrency mode of the result set, which is eitherCONCUR_READ_ONLY
orCONCUR_UPDATABLE
. -
boolean rowUpdated()
: Returnstrue
if the current row has been visibly updated by the owner or another,false
otherwise. This method is optional forCONCUR_READ_ONLY
result sets. -
boolean rowInserted()
: Returnstrue
if the current row is detected to have been inserted,false
otherwise. This method is optional forCONCUR_READ_ONLY
result sets. -
boolean rowDeleted()
: Returnstrue
if the current row is detected to have been deleted by the owner or another,false
otherwise. This method is optional forCONCUR_READ_ONLY
result sets. -
