Interface ParameterMetaData

All Superinterfaces:

Wrapper

public interface ParameterMetaData
extends Wrapper

An object that can be used to get information about the types and properties for each parameter marker in a PreparedStatement object. For some queries and driver implementations, the data that would be returned by a ParameterMetaData object may not be available until the PreparedStatement has been executed.

Some driver implementations may not be able to provide information about the types and properties for each parameter marker in a CallableStatement object.

Since:

1.4

Field Summary

static int	parameterModeIn The constant indicating that the parameter's mode is IN.
static int	parameterModeInOut The constant indicating that the parameter's mode is INOUT.
static int	parameterModeOut The constant indicating that the parameter's mode is OUT.
static int	parameterModeUnknown The constant indicating that the mode of the parameter is unknown.
static int	parameterNoNulls The constant indicating that a parameter will not allow NULL values.
static int	parameterNullable The constant indicating that a parameter will allow NULL values.
static int	parameterNullableUnknown The constant indicating that the nullability of a parameter is unknown.

Method Summary

String	getParameterClassName(int param) Retrieves the fully-qualified name of the Java class whose instances should be passed to the method PreparedStatement.setObject.
int	getParameterCount() Retrieves the number of parameters in the PreparedStatement object for which this ParameterMetaData object contains information.
int	getParameterMode(int param) Retrieves the designated parameter's mode.
int	getParameterType(int param) Retrieves the designated parameter's SQL type.

int	getPrecision(int param) Retrieves the designated parameter's specified column size.
int	getScale(int param) Retrieves the designated parameter's number of digits to right of the decimal point.
int	isNullable(int param) Retrieves whether null values are allowed in the designated parameter.
boolean	isSigned(int param) Retrieves whether values for the designated parameter can be signed numbers.

Method Detail

getParameterCount

int getParameterCount()
                      throws SQLException

Retrieves the number of parameters in the PreparedStatement object for which this ParameterMetaData object contains information.

Returns:

the number of parameters

Throws:

SQLException - if a database access error occurs

Since:

1.4

isNullable

int isNullable(int param)
               throws SQLException

Retrieves whether null values are allowed in the designated parameter.

Parameters:

param - the first parameter is 1, the second is 2, ...

Returns:

the nullability status of the given parameter; one of ParameterMetaData.parameterNoNulls, ParameterMetaData.parameterNullable, or ParameterMetaData.parameterNullableUnknown

Throws:

SQLException - if a database access error occurs

Since:

1.4

isSigned

boolean isSigned(int param)
                 throws SQLException

Retrieves whether values for the designated parameter can be signed numbers.

Parameters:

param - the first parameter is 1, the second is 2, ...

Returns:

true if so; false otherwise

Throws:

SQLException - if a database access error occurs

Since:

1.4

getPrecision

int getPrecision(int param)
                 throws SQLException

Retrieves the designated parameter's specified column size.

The returned value represents the maximum column size for the given parameter. For numeric data, this is the maximum precision. For character data, this is the length in characters. For datetime datatypes, this is the length in characters of the String representation (assuming the maximum allowed precision of the fractional seconds component). For binary data, this is the length in bytes. For the ROWID datatype, this is the length in bytes. 0 is returned for data types where the column size is not applicable.

Parameters:

param - the first parameter is 1, the second is 2, ...

Returns:

precision

Throws:

SQLException - if a database access error occurs

Since:

1.4

getScale

int getScale(int param)
             throws SQLException

Retrieves the designated parameter's number of digits to right of the decimal point. 0 is returned for data types where the scale is not applicable.

Parameters:

param - the first parameter is 1, the second is 2, ...

Returns:

scale

Throws:

SQLException - if a database access error occurs

Since:

1.4

getParameterType

int getParameterType(int param)
                     throws SQLException

Retrieves the designated parameter's SQL type.

Parameters:

param - the first parameter is 1, the second is 2, ...

Returns:

SQL type from java.sql.Types

Throws:

SQLException - if a database access error occurs

Since:

1.4

Types

getParameterTypeName

String getParameterTypeName(int param)
                            throws SQLException

Retrieves the designated parameter's database-specific type name.

Parameters:

param - the first parameter is 1, the second is 2, ...

Returns:

type the name used by the database. If the parameter type is a user-defined type, then a fully-qualified type name is returned.

Throws:

SQLException - if a database access error occurs

Since:

1.4

getParameterClassName

String getParameterClassName(int param)
                             throws SQLException

Retrieves the fully-qualified name of the Java class whose instances should be passed to the method PreparedStatement.setObject.

Parameters:

param - the first parameter is 1, the second is 2, ...

Returns:

the fully-qualified name of the class in the Java programming language that would be used by the method PreparedStatement.setObject to set the value in the specified parameter. This is the class name used for custom mapping.

Throws:

SQLException - if a database access error occurs

Since:

1.4

getParameterMode

int getParameterMode(int param)
                     throws SQLException

Retrieves the designated parameter's mode.

Parameters:

param - the first parameter is 1, the second is 2, ...

Returns:

mode of the parameter; one of ParameterMetaData.parameterModeIn, ParameterMetaData.parameterModeOut, or ParameterMetaData.parameterModeInOut ParameterMetaData.parameterModeUnknown.

Throws:

SQLException - if a database access error occurs

Since:

1.4
