Interface IRecordSet

All Superinterfaces:

IAbstractRecord, ISOAPSerializable

public interface IRecordSet
extends IAbstractRecord, ISOAPSerializable

Represents tabular data, which is usually generated by executing a query in the EIS. A RecordSet object maintains a cursor pointing to its current row of data. Initially the cursor is positioned before the first row. The next() method moves the cursor to the next row, and because it returns false when there are no more rows in the ResultSet object, it can be used in a while loop to iterate through the record set.

Field Summary

static int	RECORD_TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY Indicates that the record set cursor can only iterate with next()
static int	RECORD_TYPE_SCROLLABLE Indicates that the record set cursor can handle all iterating operations

Method Detail

first

boolean first()
              throws ConnectorException

Moves the cursor to the first row in this ResultSet object.

Returns:

true if the cursor is on a valid row. false if there are no rows in the record set

Throws:

ConnectorException

isFirst

boolean isFirst()
                throws ConnectorException

Indicates whether the cursor is on the first row of this RecordSet object.

Returns:

true if the cursor is on the first row. false otherwise

Throws:

ConnectorException

last

boolean last()
             throws ConnectorException

Moves the cursor to the last row in this RecordSet object.

Returns:

true if the cursor is on a valid row; false if there are no rows in the record set

Throws:

ConnectorException

isLast

boolean isLast()
               throws ConnectorException

Indicates whether the cursor is on the last row of this RecordSet object.

Returns:

true if the cursor is on the last row. false otherwise

Throws:

ConnectorException

retrieveRow

int retrieveRow()
                throws ConnectorException

Retrieves the current row number. The first row is number 1, the second number 2, and so on.

Returns:

the current row number; 0 if there is no current row

Throws:

ConnectorException

next

boolean next()
             throws ConnectorException

Moves the cursor down one row from its current position. A RecordSet cursor is initially positioned before the first row; the first call to the method next makes the first row the current row; the second call makes the second row the current row, and so on.

Returns:

true if the new current row is valid; false if there are no more rows

Throws:

ConnectorException

previous

boolean previous()
                 throws ConnectorException

Moves the cursor to the previous row in this RecordSet object.

Returns:

true if the cursor is on a valid row; false if it is off the record set

Throws:

ConnectorException

absolute

boolean absolute(int row)
                 throws ConnectorException

Moves the cursor to the given row number in this RecordSet object. If the row number is positive, the cursor moves to the given row number with respect to the beginning of the record set. The first row is row 1, the second is row 2, and so on. If the given row number is negative, the cursor moves to an absolute row position with respect to the end of the record set. For example, calling the method absolute(-1) positions the cursor on the last row; calling the method absolute(-2) moves the cursor to the next-to-last row, and so on. An attempt to position the cursor beyond the first/last row in the record set leaves the cursor before the first row or after the last row.

Returns:

true if the cursor is on the record set; false otherwise

Throws:

ConnectorException

relative

boolean relative(int rows)
                 throws ConnectorException

Moves the cursor a relative number of rows, either positive or negative. Attempting to move beyond the first/last row in the record set positions the cursor before/after the the first/last row. Calling relative(0) is valid, but does not change the cursor position. Note: Calling the method relative(1) is different from calling the method next() because is makes sense to call next() when there is no current row, for example, when the cursor is positioned before the first row or after the last row of the record set.

Returns:

true if the cursor is on a row; false otherwise

Throws:

ConnectorException

beforeFirst

void beforeFirst()
                 throws ConnectorException

Moves the cursor to the front of this RecordSet object, just before the first row. This method has no effect if the record set contains no rows.

Throws:

ConnectorException

afterLast

void afterLast()
               throws ConnectorException

Moves the cursor to the end of this RecordSet object, just after the last row. This method has no effect if the result set contains no rows.

Throws:

ConnectorException

isBeforeFirst

boolean isBeforeFirst()
                      throws ConnectorException

Indicates whether the cursor is before the first row in this RecordSet object.

Returns:

true if the cursor is before the first row; false if the cursor is at any other position or the record set contains no rows

Throws:

ConnectorException

isAfterLast

boolean isAfterLast()
                    throws ConnectorException

Indicates whether the cursor is after the last row in this RecordSet object.

Returns:

true if the cursor is after the last row; false if the cursor is at any other position or the record set contains no rows

Throws:

ConnectorException

insertRow

void insertRow()
               throws ConnectorException

Inserts the contents of the insert row into this RecordSet object. The cursor must be on the insert row when this method is called.

Throws:

ConnectorException

updateRow

void updateRow()
               throws ConnectorException

Updates the underlying database with the new contents of the current row of this RecordSet object. This method cannot be called when the cursor is on the insert row.

Throws:

ConnectorException

deleteRow

void deleteRow()
               throws ConnectorException

Deletes the current row from this ResultSet object. This method cannot be called when the cursor is on the insert row.

Throws:

ConnectorException

refreshRow

void refreshRow()
                throws ConnectorException

Refreshes the current row with its most recent value in the database. This method cannot be called when the cursor is on the insert row.

Throws:

ConnectorException

moveToInsertRow

void moveToInsertRow()
                     throws ConnectorException

Moves the cursor to the insert row. The current cursor position is remembered while the cursor is positioned on the insert row. The insert row is a special row associated with an updatable record set. It is essentially a buffer where a new row may be constructed by calling the setXXX methods prior to inserting the row into the record set. Only the setXXX, getXXX, and insertRow methods may be called when the cursor is on the insert row. All of the columns in a record set must be given a value each time this method is called before calling insertRow. An setXXX method must be called before a getXXX method can be called on a column value.

Throws:

ConnectorException

moveToCurrentRow

void moveToCurrentRow()
                      throws ConnectorException

Moves the cursor to the remembered cursor position, usually the current row. This method has no effect if the cursor is not on the insert row.

Throws:

ConnectorException

getRecords

Enumeration getRecords()
                       throws ConnectorException

Return an Enueration of IRecord objects for going over this RecordSet's records.

Returns:

Enumeration the records of the record set as an enumeration

Throws:

ConnectorException

retrieveType

int retrieveType()
                 throws ConnectorException

Return the type of the record set FORWARD_ONLY indicates that the only possible iterating operation is next() SCROLLABLE indicates that other iterating operations can be used

Returns:

int the type of the record set

Throws:

ConnectorException
