Interface ParameterList

public interface ParameterList

Abstraction of a list of parameters to be substituted into a Query. The protocol-specific details of how to efficiently store and stream the parameters is hidden behind implementations of this interface.

In general, instances of ParameterList are associated with a particular Query object (the one that created them) and shouldn't be used against another Query.

Parameter indexes are 1-based to match JDBC's PreparedStatement, i.e. the first parameter has index 1.

Method Detail

registerOutParameter

void registerOutParameter(int index,
                          int sqlType)
                          throws SQLException

Throws:

SQLException

getParameterCount

int getParameterCount()

Get the number of parameters in this list. This value never changes for a particular instance, and might be zero.

Returns:

the number of parameters in this list.

getInParameterCount

int getInParameterCount()

Get the number of IN parameters in this list.

Returns:

the number of IN parameters in this list

getOutParameterCount

int getOutParameterCount()

Get the number of OUT parameters in this list.

Returns:

the number of OUT parameters in this list

getTypeOIDs

int[] getTypeOIDs()

Return the oids of the parameters in this list. May be null for a ParameterList that does not support typing of parameters.

setIntParameter

void setIntParameter(int index,
                     int value)
                     throws SQLException

Binds an integer value to a parameter. The type of the parameter is implicitly 'int4'.

Parameters:

index - the 1-based parameter index to bind.

value - the integer value to use.

Throws:

SQLException - on error or if index is out of range

setLiteralParameter

void setLiteralParameter(int index,
                         String value,
                         int oid)
                         throws SQLException

Binds a String value that is an unquoted literal to the server's query parser (for example, a bare integer) to a parameter. Associated with the parameter is a typename for the parameter that should correspond to an entry in pg_types.

Parameters:

index - the 1-based parameter index to bind.

value - the unquoted literal string to use.

oid - the type OID of the parameter, or 0 to infer the type.

Throws:

SQLException - on error or if index is out of range

setStringParameter

void setStringParameter(int index,
                        String value,
                        int oid)
                        throws SQLException

Binds a String value that needs to be quoted for the server's parser to understand (for example, a timestamp) to a parameter. Associated with the parameter is a typename for the parameter that should correspond to an entry in pg_types.

Parameters:

index - the 1-based parameter index to bind.

value - the quoted string to use.

oid - the type OID of the parameter, or 0 to infer the type.

Throws:

SQLException - on error or if index is out of range

setBytea

void setBytea(int index,
              byte[] data,
              int offset,
              int length)
              throws SQLException

Binds a binary bytea value stored as a bytearray to a parameter. The parameter's type is implicitly set to 'bytea'. The bytearray's contains should remain unchanged until query execution has completed.

Parameters:

index - the 1-based parameter index to bind.

data - an array containing the raw data value

offset - the offset within data of the start of the parameter data.

length - the number of bytes of parameter data within data to use.

Throws:

SQLException - on error or if index is out of range

setBytea

void setBytea(int index,
              InputStream stream,
              int length)
              throws SQLException

Binds a binary bytea value stored as an InputStream. The parameter's type is implicitly set to 'bytea'. The stream should remain valid until query execution has completed.

Parameters:

index - the 1-based parameter index to bind.

stream - a stream containing the parameter data.

length - the number of bytes of parameter data to read from stream.

Throws:

SQLException - on error or if index is out of range

setNull

void setNull(int index,
             int oid)
             throws SQLException

Binds a SQL NULL value to a parameter. Associated with the parameter is a typename for the parameter that should correspond to an entry in pg_types.

Parameters:

index - the 1-based parameter index to bind.

oid - the type OID of the parameter, or 0 to infer the type.

Throws:

SQLException - on error or if index is out of range

copy

ParameterList copy()

Perform a shallow copy of this ParameterList, returning a new instance (still suitable for passing to the owning Query). If this ParameterList is immutable, copy() may return the same immutable object.

Returns:

a new ParameterList instance

clear

void clear()

Unbind all parameter values bound in this list.

toString

String toString(int index)

Return a human-readable representation of a particular parameter in this ParameterList. If the parameter is not bound, returns "?".

Parameters:

index - the 1-based parameter index to bind.

Returns:

a string representation of the parameter.
