Interface OracleParameterMetaData

All Superinterfaces:
ParameterMetaData, Wrapper
public interface OracleParameterMetaData extends ParameterMetaData
This interface defines the Oracle extensions to the standard JDBC interface java.sql.ParameterMetaData. For pre-JDK 1.4 applications, this interface provides the equivalent functions in java.sql.ParameterMetaData. Applications can use java.sql.ParameterMetaData where they do not make use of Oracle extensions. However, when an application uses the Oracle extensions to java.sql.ParameterMetaData, it must use oracle.jdbc.OracleParameterMetaData.

This is an interface that can be used to get information about the types and properties of the parameters in a PreparedStatement object.

  • Method Details

    • query

      void query(Connection conn) throws SQLException
      Re-query the database for parameter types. This method will re-query the types in the database without re-parsing the statement (if possible). This method will parse the statement again if the ParameterMetadata cache is enabled and oracle.jdbc.parameterMetadataCacheIncludeParsing (system property) is set to false (default value). For any other use case, this method will re-use the parsing information and only re-issue the database queries.
      Parameters:
      conn - - the connection to use to query the database.
      Throws:
      SQLException - - if there was an error processing the queries.
