Creating, reading, updating, and deleting data in a database is a common task in many applications, and JDBC (Java Database Connectivity) is a Java API that allows you to connect to a database and perform these operations.
The first step is to establish a connection to the database. You can do this by loading the JDBC driver and creating a connection object.
try {
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(
"jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mydb", "username",
"password");
System.out.println("Connection established.");
}
catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Once you have a connection to the database, you can use the connection object to create a new record in the database. To do this, you will need to use an SQL INSERT statement and execute it using the connection object.
try {
String sql = "INSERT INTO table_name (column1, column2, column3) VALUES (?, ?, ?)";
PreparedStatement statement = con.prepareStatement(sql);
statement.setString(1, "value1");
statement.setString(2, "value2");
statement.setInt(3, 123);
statement.executeUpdate();
System.out.println("Record created.");
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
To read a record from the database, you will need to use an SQL SELECT statement and execute it using the connection object. The result of the query will be a ResultSet object that you can use to access the data in the record.
try {
String sql = "SELECT column1, column2, column3 FROM table_name WHERE id = ?";
PreparedStatement statement = con.prepareStatement(sql);
statement.setInt(1, 1);
ResultSet result = statement.executeQuery();
if (result.next()) {
String column1 = result.getString("column1");
String column2 = result.getString("column2");
int column3 = result.getInt("column3");
System.out.println("Column 1: " + column1);
System.out.println("Column 2: " + column2);
System.out.println("Column 3: " + column3);
}
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
To update a record in the database, you will need to use an SQL UPDATE statement and execute it using the connection object.
try {
String sql = "UPDATE table_name SET column1 = ?, column2 = ?, column3 = ? WHERE id = ?";
PreparedStatement statement = con.prepareStatement(sql);
statement.setString(1, "new_value1");
statement.setString(2, "new_value2");
statement.setInt(3, 456);
statement.setInt(4, 1);
statement.executeUpdate();
System.out.println("Record updated.");
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
To delete a record from the database, you will need to use an SQL DELETE statement and execute it using the connection object.
try {
String sql = "DELETE FROM table_name WHERE id = ?";
PreparedStatement statement = con.prepareStatement(sql);
statement.setInt(1, 1);
statement.executeUpdate();
System.out.println("Record deleted.");
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
