JDBC PreparedStatement object example

The following is an example, which uses PreparedStatement and opens and closes statements:
This example code is written based on the environment and database settings in the previous chapters.

Copy and paste the following example into JDBCExample.java, as follows compile and run:

//Steps1. Import the required software packages
import java.sql.*;
public class JDBCExample {
   //JDBC driver name and database URL
   static final String JDBC_DRIVER = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";  
   static final String DB_URL = "jdbc:mysql://localhost/EMP";
   // Database credentials
   static final String USER = "username";
   static final String PASS = "password";
   
   public static void main(String[] args) {
   Connection conn = null;
   PreparedStatement stmt = null;
   try{
      //Steps2: Register JDBC driver
      Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
      //Steps3Open connection
      System.out.println("Connecting to database...");
      conn = DriverManager.getConnection(DB_URL,USER,PASS);
      //Steps4Execute the query
      System.out.println("Creating statement...");
      String sql = "UPDATE Employees set age=? WHERE id=?";
      stmt = conn.prepareStatement(sql);
      
      //Bind values to parameters.
      stmt.setInt(1, 35);  // set age
      stmt.setInt(2, 102); // set ID
      
      //Let's use ID=102Update the age of the record;
      int rows = stmt.executeUpdate();
      System.out.println("Rows impacted: " + rows);
      //Let's select all records and display them.
      sql = "SELECT id, first, last, age FROM Employees";
      ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(sql);
      //Steps5Extract data from the result set
      while(rs.next()){
         //Search by column name
         int id = rs.getInt("id");
         int age = rs.getInt("age");
         String first = rs.getString("first");
         String last = rs.getString("last");
         //Display values
         System.out.print("ID: " + id;
         System.out.print(", Age: " + age;
         System.out.print(", First: " + first);
         System.out.println(", Last: " + last);
      }
      //Step 6: Clean up environment
      rs.close();
      stmt.close();
      conn.close();
   }catch(SQLException se){
      //Handle JDBC errors
      se.printStackTrace();
   catch(Exception e){
      //Handle errors of Class.forName
      e.printStackTrace();
   }
      //Finally block for closing resources
      try{
         if(stmt!=null)
            stmt.close();
      }2){
      }// nothing we can do
      try{
         if(conn!=null)
            conn.close();
      }catch(SQLException se){
         se.printStackTrace();
      }//end finally try
   }//end try
   System.out.println("Goodbye!");
   }//end main
}//end JDBCExample

Now let's compile the above example as follows:

C:\>javac FirstExample.java
C:\>

When you run FirstExample, it will produce the following results-

C:\>java FirstExample
