Class UnityConnection

java.lang.Object
  extended by unity.jdbc.UnityConnection
All Implemented Interfaces:
java.sql.Connection

public class UnityConnection
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.sql.Connection

A connection (session) with the integrated database. Queries that span multiple databases can be processed, divided into SQL on the individual JDBC sources, and then combined on the client.

A Connection object provides information on the tables in all databases. This information is obtained with the getMetaData method.

Note: By default a Connection object is in auto-commit mode, which means that it automatically commits changes after executing each statement. If auto-commit mode has been disabled, the method commit must be called explicitly in order to commit changes; otherwise, database changes will not be saved.

Method Detail

createStatement

public java.sql.Statement createStatement()
                                   throws java.sql.SQLException
Specified by:
createStatement in interface java.sql.Connection
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException

createStatement

public java.sql.Statement createStatement(int resultSetType,
                                          int resultSetConcurrency)
                                   throws java.sql.SQLException
Creates a 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 concurrency to be overridden.

Specified by:
createStatement in interface java.sql.Connection
Parameters:
resultSetType - a result set type; one of ResultSet.TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY, ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE, or ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE (not supported)
resultSetConcurrency - a concurrency type; one of ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY or ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE
Returns:
a new Statement object that will generate ResultSet objects with the given type and concurrency
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs or the given parameters are not ResultSet constants indicating type and concurrency
Since:
1.2

prepareStatement

public java.sql.PreparedStatement prepareStatement(java.lang.String sql)
                                            throws java.sql.SQLException
Creates a 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 object is executed. This has no direct effect on users; however, it does affect which methods throw certain SQLException objects.

Result sets created using the returned PreparedStatement object will by default be type TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY and have a concurrency level of CONCUR_READ_ONLY.

Specified by:
prepareStatement in interface java.sql.Connection
Parameters:
sql - an SQL statement that may contain one or more '?' IN parameter placeholders
Returns:
a new default PreparedStatement object containing the pre-compiled SQL statement
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs

prepareCall

public java.sql.CallableStatement prepareCall(java.lang.String sql)
                                       throws java.sql.SQLException
Creates a CallableStatement object for calling database stored procedures. The CallableStatement object 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 object is executed. This has no direct effect on users; however, it does affect which method throws certain SQLExceptions.

Result sets created using the returned CallableStatement object will by default be type TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY and have a concurrency level of CONCUR_READ_ONLY.

Specified by:
prepareCall in interface java.sql.Connection
Parameters:
sql - an SQL statement that may contain one or more '?' parameter placeholders. Typically this statement is a JDBC function call escape string.
Returns:
a new default CallableStatement object containing the pre-compiled SQL statement
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs

nativeSQL

public java.lang.String nativeSQL(java.lang.String sql)
                           throws java.sql.SQLException
Converts the given SQL statement into the system's native SQL grammar. A driver may convert the JDBC SQL grammar into its system's native SQL grammar prior to sending it. This method returns the native form of the statement that the driver would have sent.

Specified by:
nativeSQL in interface java.sql.Connection
Parameters:
sql - an SQL statement that may contain one or more '?' parameter placeholders
Returns:
the native form of this statement
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs

setAutoCommit

public void setAutoCommit(boolean autoCommit)
                   throws java.sql.SQLException
Sets this connection's auto-commit mode to the given state. If a connection is in auto-commit mode, then all its SQL statements will be executed and committed as individual transactions. Otherwise, its SQL statements are grouped into transactions that are terminated by a call to either the method 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 object, the statement completes when the last row of the ResultSet object has been retrieved or the ResultSet object 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.

NOTE: If this method is called during a transaction, the transaction is committed.

Specified by:
setAutoCommit in interface java.sql.Connection
Parameters:
autoCommit - true to enable auto-commit mode; false to disable it
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs
See Also:
getAutoCommit()

getAutoCommit

public boolean getAutoCommit()
                      throws java.sql.SQLException
Retrieves the current auto-commit mode for this Connection object.

Specified by:
getAutoCommit in interface java.sql.Connection
Returns:
the current state of this Connection object's auto-commit mode
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs
See Also:
setAutoCommit(boolean)

commit

public void commit()
            throws java.sql.SQLException
Makes all changes made since the previous commit/rollback permanent and releases any database locks currently held by this Connection object. This method should be used only when auto-commit mode has been disabled.

Specified by:
commit in interface java.sql.Connection
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs or this Connection object is in auto-commit mode
See Also:
setAutoCommit(boolean)

rollback

public void rollback()
              throws java.sql.SQLException
Undoes all changes made in the current transaction and releases any database locks currently held by this Connection object. This method should be used only when auto-commit mode has been disabled.

Specified by:
rollback in interface java.sql.Connection
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs or this Connection object is in auto-commit mode
See Also:
setAutoCommit(boolean)

close

public void close()
           throws java.sql.SQLException
Releases this Connection object's database and JDBC resources immediately instead of waiting for them to be automatically released.

Calling the method close on a Connection object that is already closed is a no-op.

Note: A Connection object is automatically closed when it is garbage collected. Certain fatal errors also close a Connection object.

Specified by:
close in interface java.sql.Connection
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs

isClosed

public boolean isClosed()
                 throws java.sql.SQLException
Retrieves whether this Connection object has been closed. A connection is closed if the method close has been called on it or if certain fatal errors have occurred. This method is guaranteed to return true only when it is called after the method Connection.close has been called.

This method generally cannot be called to determine whether a connection to a database is valid or invalid. A typical client can determine that a connection is invalid by catching any exceptions that might be thrown when an operation is attempted.

Specified by:
isClosed in interface java.sql.Connection
Returns:
true if this Connection object is closed; false if it is still open
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs

getMetaData

public java.sql.DatabaseMetaData getMetaData()
                                      throws java.sql.SQLException
Retrieves a DatabaseMetaData object that contains metadata about the database to which this Connection object represents a connection. The metadata includes information about the database's tables, its supported SQL grammar, its stored procedures, the capabilities of this connection, and so on.

Specified by:
getMetaData in interface java.sql.Connection
Returns:
a DatabaseMetaData object for this Connection object
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs

setReadOnly

public void setReadOnly(boolean readOnly)
                 throws java.sql.SQLException
Puts this connection in read-only mode as a hint to the driver to enable database optimizations.

Note: This method cannot be called during a transaction.

Specified by:
setReadOnly in interface java.sql.Connection
Parameters:
readOnly - true enables read-only mode; false disables it
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs or this method is called during a transaction

isReadOnly

public boolean isReadOnly()
                   throws java.sql.SQLException
Retrieves whether this Connection object is in read-only mode.

Specified by:
isReadOnly in interface java.sql.Connection
Returns:
true if this Connection object is read-only; false otherwise

setTransactionIsolation

public void setTransactionIsolation(int level)
                             throws java.sql.SQLException
Attempts to change the transaction isolation level for this Connection object to the one given. The constants defined in the interface Connection are the possible transaction isolation levels.

Note: If this method is called during a transaction, the result is implementation-defined.

Specified by:
setTransactionIsolation in interface java.sql.Connection
Parameters:
level - one of the following Connection constants: Connection.TRANSACTION_READ_UNCOMMITTED, Connection.TRANSACTION_READ_COMMITTED, Connection.TRANSACTION_REPEATABLE_READ, or Connection.TRANSACTION_SERIALIZABLE. (Note that Connection.TRANSACTION_NONE cannot be used because it specifies that transactions are not supported.)
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs or the given parameter is not one of the Connection constants
See Also:
DatabaseMetaData.supportsTransactionIsolationLevel(int), getTransactionIsolation()

getTransactionIsolation

public int getTransactionIsolation()

Returns:
the current transaction isolation level, which will be one of the following constants: Connection.TRANSACTION_READ_UNCOMMITTED, Connection.TRANSACTION_READ_COMMITTED, Connection.TRANSACTION_REPEATABLE_READ, Connection.TRANSACTION_SERIALIZABLE, or Connection.TRANSACTION_NONE.
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs
See Also:
setTransactionIsolation(int)

getWarnings

public java.sql.SQLWarning getWarnings()
                                throws java.sql.SQLException
Retrieves the first warning reported by calls on this Connection object. If there is more than one warning, subsequent warnings will be chained to the first one and can be retrieved by calling the method SQLWarning.getNextWarning on the warning that was retrieved previously.

This method may not be called on a closed connection; doing so will cause an SQLException to be thrown.

Note: Subsequent warnings will be chained to this SQLWarning.

Specified by:
getWarnings in interface java.sql.Connection
Returns:
the first SQLWarning object or null if there are none
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs or this method is called on a closed connection
See Also:
SQLWarning

This method is the same as the prepareStatement method above, but it allows the default result set type, concurrency, and holdability to be overridden.

Specified by:
prepareStatement in interface java.sql.Connection
Parameters:
sql - a String object that is the SQL statement to be sent to the database; may contain one or more ? IN parameters
resultSetType - one of the following ResultSet constants: ResultSet.TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY, ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE, or ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE
resultSetConcurrency - one of the following ResultSet constants: ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY or ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE
resultSetHoldability - one of the following ResultSet constants: ResultSet.HOLD_CURSORS_OVER_COMMIT or ResultSet.CLOSE_CURSORS_AT_COMMIT
Returns:
a new PreparedStatement object, containing the pre-compiled SQL statement, that will generate ResultSet objects with the given type, concurrency, and holdability
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs or the given parameters are not ResultSet constants indicating type, concurrency, and holdability
Since:
1.4

                                       throws java.sql.SQLException
Creates a CallableStatement object that will generate ResultSet objects with the given type and concurrency. This method is the same as the prepareCall method above, but it allows the default result set type, result set concurrency type and holdability to be overridden.

Specified by:
prepareCall in interface java.sql.Connection
Parameters:
sql - a String object that is the SQL statement to be sent to the database; may contain on or more ? parameters
resultSetType - one of the following ResultSet constants: ResultSet.TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY, ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE, or ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE
resultSetConcurrency - one of the following ResultSet constants: ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY or ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE
resultSetHoldability - one of the following ResultSet constants: ResultSet.HOLD_CURSORS_OVER_COMMIT or ResultSet.CLOSE_CURSORS_AT_COMMIT
Returns:
a new CallableStatement object, containing the pre-compiled SQL statement, that will generate ResultSet objects with the given type, concurrency, and holdability
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs or the given parameters are not ResultSet constants indicating type, concurrency, and holdability
Since:
1.4

prepareStatement

public java.sql.PreparedStatement prepareStatement(java.lang.String sql,
                                                   int autoGeneratedKeys)
                                            throws java.sql.SQLException
Creates a default PreparedStatement object that has the capability to retrieve auto-generated keys. The given constant tells the driver whether it should make auto-generated keys available for retrieval. This parameter is ignored if the SQL statement is not an INSERT statement.

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 object is executed. This has no direct effect on users; however, it does affect which methods throw certain SQLExceptions.

Result sets created using the returned PreparedStatement object will by default be type TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY and have a concurrency level of CONCUR_READ_ONLY.

Specified by:
prepareStatement in interface java.sql.Connection
Parameters:
sql - an SQL statement that may contain one or more '?' IN parameter placeholders
autoGeneratedKeys - a flag indicating that auto-generated keys should be returned, one of Statement.RETURN_GENERATED_KEYS or Statement.NO_GENERATED_KEYS.
Returns:
a new PreparedStatement object, containing the pre-compiled SQL statement, that will have the capability of returning auto-generated keys
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs or the given parameter is not a Statement constant indicating whether auto-generated keys should be returned
Since:
1.4

prepareStatement

public java.sql.PreparedStatement prepareStatement(java.lang.String sql,
                                                   int[] columnIndexes)
                                            throws java.sql.SQLException
Creates a default PreparedStatement object capable of returning the auto-generated keys designated by the given array. This array contains the indexes of the columns in the target table that contain the auto-generated keys that should be made available. This array is ignored if the SQL statement is not an INSERT statement.

An 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 object is executed. This has no direct effect on users; however, it does affect which methods throw certain SQLExceptions.

Result sets created using the returned PreparedStatement object will by default be type TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY and have a concurrency level of CONCUR_READ_ONLY.

Specified by:
prepareStatement in interface java.sql.Connection
Parameters:
sql - an SQL statement that may contain one or more '?' IN parameter placeholders
columnIndexes - an array of column indexes indicating the columns that should be returned from the inserted row or rows
Returns:
a new PreparedStatement object, containing the pre-compiled statement, that is capable of returning the auto-generated keys designated by the given array of column indexes
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs
Since:
1.4

prepareStatement

public java.sql.PreparedStatement prepareStatement(java.lang.String sql,
                                                   java.lang.String[] columnNames)
                                            throws java.sql.SQLException
Creates a default PreparedStatement object capable of returning the auto-generated keys designated by the given array. This array contains the names of the columns in the target table that contain the auto-generated keys that should be returned. This array is ignored if the SQL statement is not an INSERT statement.

An 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.
