Class jdbcDataSource

java.lang.Object
  extended byorg.hsqldb.jdbc.jdbcDataSource
All Implemented Interfaces:
javax.sql.DataSource, javax.naming.Referenceable, java.io.Serializable

public class jdbcDataSource
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable, javax.naming.Referenceable, javax.sql.DataSource

A factory for connections to the physical data source that this DataSource object represents. An alternative to the DriverManager facility, a DataSource object is the preferred means of getting a connection. An object that implements the DataSource interface will typically be registered with a naming service based on the JavaTM Naming and Directory (JNDI) API.

The DataSource interface is implemented by a driver vendor. There are three types of implementations:

  1. Basic implementation -- produces a standard Connection object
  2. Connection pooling implementation -- produces a Connection object that will automatically participate in connection pooling. This implementation works with a middle-tier connection pooling manager.
  3. Distributed transaction implementation -- produces a Connection object that may be used for distributed transactions and almost always participates in connection pooling. This implementation works with a middle-tier transaction manager and almost always with a connection pooling manager.

A DataSource object has properties that can be modified when necessary. For example, if the data source is moved to a different server, the property for the server can be changed. The benefit is that because the data source's properties can be changed, any code accessing that data source does not need to be changed.

A driver that is accessed via a DataSource object does not register itself with the DriverManager. Rather, a DataSource object is retrieved though a lookup operation and then used to create a Connection object. With a basic implementation, the connection obtained through a DataSource object is identical to a connection obtained through the DriverManager facility.

Method Detail

getConnection

public java.sql.Connection getConnection()
                                  throws java.sql.SQLException

Attempts to establish a connection with the data source that this DataSource object represents.

Specified by:
getConnection in interface javax.sql.DataSource
Returns:
a connection to the data source
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs

getConnection

public java.sql.Connection getConnection(java.lang.String username,
                                         java.lang.String password)
                                  throws java.sql.SQLException

Attempts to establish a connection with the data source that this DataSource object represents.

Specified by:
getConnection in interface javax.sql.DataSource
Parameters:
username - the database user on whose behalf the connection is being made
password - the user's password
Returns:
a connection to the data source
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs

getDatabase

public java.lang.String getDatabase()
Retrieves the jdbc database connection url attribute.

Returns:
the jdbc database connection url attribute

getLoginTimeout

public int getLoginTimeout()
                    throws java.sql.SQLException
Gets the maximum time in seconds that this data source can wait while attempting to connect to a database. A value of zero means that the timeout is the default system timeout if there is one; otherwise, it means that there is no timeout. When a DataSource object is created, the login timeout is initially zero.

Specified by:
getLoginTimeout in interface javax.sql.DataSource
Returns:
the data source login time limit
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs.
See Also:
setLoginTimeout(int)

getLogWriter

public java.io.PrintWriter getLogWriter()
                                 throws java.sql.SQLException

Retrieves the log writer for this DataSource object.

The log writer is a character output stream to which all logging and tracing messages for this data source will be printed. This includes messages printed by the methods of this object, messages printed by methods of other objects manufactured by this object, and so on. Messages printed to a data source specific log writer are not printed to the log writer associated with the java.sql.Drivermanager class. When a DataSource object is created, the log writer is initially null; in other words, the default is for logging to be disabled.

Specified by:
getLogWriter in interface javax.sql.DataSource
Returns:
the log writer for this data source or null if logging is disabled
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs
See Also:
setLogWriter(java.io.PrintWriter)

getReference

public javax.naming.Reference getReference()
                                    throws javax.naming.NamingException
Specified by:
getReference in interface javax.naming.Referenceable
Throws:
javax.naming.NamingException

getUser

public java.lang.String getUser()
Retrieves the user ID for the connection.

Returns:
the user ID for the connection

setDatabase

public void setDatabase(java.lang.String database)
Assigns the value of this object's jdbc database connection url attribute.

Parameters:
database - the new value of this object's jdbc database connection url attribute

setLoginTimeout

public void setLoginTimeout(int seconds)
                     throws java.sql.SQLException

Sets the maximum time in seconds that this data source will wait while attempting to connect to a database. A value of zero specifies that the timeout is the default system timeout if there is one; otherwise, it specifies that there is no timeout. When a DataSource object is created, the login timeout is initially zero.

Specified by:
setLoginTimeout in interface javax.sql.DataSource
Parameters:
seconds - the data source login time limit
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs.
See Also:
getLoginTimeout()

setLogWriter

public void setLogWriter(java.io.PrintWriter logWriter)
                  throws java.sql.SQLException

Sets the log writer for this DataSource object to the given java.io.PrintWriter object.

The log writer is a character output stream to which all logging and tracing messages for this data source will be printed. This includes messages printed by the methods of this object, messages printed by methods of other objects manufactured by this object, and so on. Messages printed to a data source- specific log writer are not printed to the log writer associated with the java.sql.Drivermanager class. When a DataSource object is created the log writer is initially null; in other words, the default is for logging to be disabled.

Specified by:
setLogWriter in interface javax.sql.DataSource
Parameters:
logWriter - the new log writer; to disable logging, set to null
Throws:
java.sql.SQLException - if a database access error occurs
