ResultSet objectCertain SQL queries (especially SELECT) returns tabular data, In JDBC the object of the java.sql.ResultSet interface holds the tabular data returned by the methods that execute the statements which quires the database (executeQuery() method of the Statement interface in general).ResultSet Cursor/pointerThe ResultSet object has a cursor/pointer which points to the current row. Initially this cursor is positioned before first row.There are two types of result sets namely, forward only and, bidirectional. By default the ResultSet we get by the executeQuery() method is of the type forward only. Using this you can traverse/move the cursor only forward direction.Bidirectional ResultSetA bi-directional ResultSet ... Read More

When we execute certain SQL queries (SELECT query in general) they return tabular data.The java.sql.ResultSet interface represents such tabular data returned by the SQL statements.i.e. the ResultSet object holds the tabular data returned by the methods that execute the statements which quires the database (executeQuery() method of the Statement interface in general).The ResultSet object has a cursor/pointer which points to the current row. Initially this cursor is positioned before first row.The isClosed() method of the ResultSet interface is used to determine whether the current ResultSet object is closed.rs.isclosed()CLOSE_CURSORS_AT_COMMITIf the holdability of the ResultSet object is set to this value. Whenever you commit/save ... Read More

ResultSet holdability determines whether the ResultSet objects (cursors) should be closed or held open when a transaction (that contains the said cursor/ResultSet object) is committed using the commit() method of the Connection interface.The getResultSetHoldability() method of the DatabaseMetaData interface retrieves the default holdability for the ResultSet objects of the underlying database.This method returns an integer value representing the default ResultSet holdability, which will be either 1 or 2 where, 1 indicates the value HOLD_CURSORS_OVER_COMMIT. If the holdability of the ResultSet object is set to this value. Whenever you commit/save a transaction using the commit() method of the Connection interface, the ResultSet ... Read More
