Interface SQLOutput

All Known Implementing Classes:: SQLOutputImpl

public interface SQLOutput

The output stream for writing the attributes of a user-defined type back to the database. This interface, used only for custom mapping, is used by the driver, and its methods are never directly invoked by a programmer.

When an object of a class implementing the interface SQLData is passed as an argument to an SQL statement, the JDBC driver calls the method SQLData.getSQLType to determine the kind of SQL datum being passed to the database. The driver then creates an instance of SQLOutput and passes it to the method SQLData.writeSQL. The method writeSQL in turn calls the appropriate SQLOutput writer methods writeBoolean, writeCharacterStream, and so on) to write data from the SQLData object to the SQLOutput output stream as the representation of an SQL user-defined type.

writeObject

void writeObject(SQLData x)
          throws SQLException

Writes to the stream the data contained in the given SQLData object. When the SQLData object is null, this method writes an SQL NULL to the stream. Otherwise, it calls the SQLData.writeSQL method of the given object, which writes the object's attributes to the stream. The implementation of the method SQLData.writeSQL calls the appropriate SQLOutput writer method(s) for writing each of the object's attributes in order. The attributes must be read from an SQLInput input stream and written to an SQLOutput output stream in the same order in which they were listed in the SQL definition of the user-defined type.

Parameters:: x - the object representing data of an SQL structured or distinct type
Throws:: SQLException - if a database access error occurs; SQLFeatureNotSupportedException - if the JDBC driver does not support this method
Since:: 1.2

writeRef

void writeRef(Ref x)
       throws SQLException

Writes an SQL REF value to the stream.

Parameters:: x - a Ref object representing data of an SQL REF value
Throws:: SQLException - if a database access error occurs; SQLFeatureNotSupportedException - if the JDBC driver does not support this method
Since:: 1.2

writeBlob

void writeBlob(Blob x)
        throws SQLException

Writes an SQL BLOB value to the stream.

Parameters:: x - a Blob object representing data of an SQL BLOB value
Throws:: SQLException - if a database access error occurs; SQLFeatureNotSupportedException - if the JDBC driver does not support this method

Since:: 1.4

writeNString

void writeNString(String x)
           throws SQLException

Writes the next attribute to the stream as a String in the Java programming language. The driver converts this to a SQL NCHAR or NVARCHAR or LONGNVARCHAR value (depending on the argument's size relative to the driver's limits on NVARCHAR values) when it sends it to the stream.

Parameters:: x - the value to pass to the database
Throws:: SQLException - if a database access error occurs; SQLFeatureNotSupportedException - if the JDBC driver does not support this method
Since:: 1.6

writeNClob

void writeNClob(NClob x)

writeRowId

void writeRowId(RowId x)
         throws SQLException

Writes an SQL ROWID value to the stream.

Parameters:: x - a RowId object representing data of an SQL ROWID value
Throws:: SQLException - if a database access error occurs; SQLFeatureNotSupportedException - if the JDBC driver does not support this method

writeSQLXML

void writeSQLXML(SQLXML x)
          throws SQLException

Writes an SQL XML value to the stream.

Parameters:: x - a SQLXML object representing data of an SQL XML value
Throws:: SQLException - if a database access error occurs, the java.xml.transform.Result, Writer or OutputStream has not been closed for the SQLXML object or if there is an error processing the XML value. The getCause method of the exception may provide a more detailed exception, for example, if the stream does not contain valid XML.; SQLFeatureNotSupportedException - if the JDBC driver does not support this method
Since:: 1.6

writeObject

default void writeObject(Object x,
                         SQLType targetSqlType)
                  throws SQLException

Writes to the stream the data contained in the given object. The object will be converted to the specified targetSqlType before being sent to the stream.

When the object is null, this method writes an SQL NULL to the stream.

If the object has a custom mapping (is of a class implementing the interface SQLData), the JDBC driver should call the method SQLData.writeSQL to write it to the SQL data stream. If, on the other hand, the object is of a class implementing Ref, Blob, Clob, NClob, Struct, java.net.URL, or Array, the driver should pass it to the database as a value of the corresponding SQL type.

The default implementation will throw SQLFeatureNotSupportedException

Parameters:: x - the object containing the input parameter value; targetSqlType - the SQL type to be sent to the database.
Throws:: SQLException - if a database access error occurs or if the Java Object specified by x is an InputStream or Reader object and the value of the scale parameter is less than zero; SQLFeatureNotSupportedException - if the JDBC driver does not support this data type
