Ben: 1. I am glad to find out about the "finally" command. I was not aware of this feature in Java. 2. The new code below yields an IDE error... con cannot be resolved 3. Connection con was already defined... it gives an error when I do a con = null; 4. IDE does not accept con.close; 5. While I am happy to look into this and figure it out... right now I do not know the fix.

Tip: You should always put the con.close() statement in a finally block. The close method itself can throw an exception so it needs to be in a nested try/catch. Putting in in a finally block insures that come Hello or high water the connection gets closed. One of the most common causes for memory leaks in JDBC applications is the build up of unclosed database connections. Connection con = null; try{ // establish connection and do stuff }catch(Exception e){ // deal with any problems }finally{ try{ con.close(); }catch(Exception ignored){} } On Mar 23, 2010, at 3:33 PM, Brutzman, Bill wrote: > The following code works ok... > > Thanks to all those who responded especially John, Jeff, Bruce, > Charles, Ben, and Mike. > > --Bill > > import java.sql.*; > > public class Uni_101 { > > public static void main(String[] args) { > try { > > try { > Class.forName("com.ibm.u2.jdbc.UniJDBCDriver"); > } > catch(Exception x){ > System.out.println( "Here " + x ); > } > String url = > "jdbc:ibm-u2://192.168.0.102/SHIPPING"; > String userid > = "ups"; > String passWord = > "brown"; > > Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(url, userid, > passWord); > > Statement stmt = con.createStatement(); > > String sql = "select @ID, NAME, > CITY, STATE from PACKSLIPS.X"; > ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(sql); > > int i = 1; > while (rs.next() && i < 6) > { > System.out.println("\nRecord "+ i +" :"); > System.out.println("\...@id : \t" + rs.getString(1)); > System.out.println("\tNAME :\t" + rs.getString(2)); > System.out.println("\tCITY :\t" + rs.getString(3)); > System.out.println("\tSTATE :\t" + rs.getString(4)); > i++; > } > > rs.close(); > stmt.close() ; > System.out.println("\n\t*--- QUERY test is done successful > ---*\n"); > > } > catch (SQLException e ) { > System.out.println(e); > } > } > > } > _______________________________________________ > U2-Users mailing list > U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org > http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users > _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
