CHAPTER 10
Introduction to SQL Programming
Techniques
Slide 9- *
Copyright © 2016 and Shamkant B. Navathe
Introduction to SQL
Programming Techniques
Database applications
Host language
Java, C/C++/C#, COBOL, or some other programming language
Data sublanguage
SQL standards
Continually evolving
Each DBMS vendor may have some variations from standard
Slide 10- 3

Database Programming: Techniques and Issues
Interactive interface
SQL commands typed directly into a monitor
Execute file of commands
@
Application programs or database applications
Used as canned transactions by the end users access a database
May have Web interface
Slide 10- 4

Approaches to Database Programming
Embedding database commands in a general-purpose programming language
Database statements identified by a special prefix
Precompiler or preprocessor scans the source program code
Identify database statements and extract them for processing by the DBMS
Called embedded SQL
Slide 10- 5
Copyright © 2016 and Shamkant B. Navathe
Approaches to Database Programming (cont’d.)
Using a library of database functions
Library of functions available to the host programming language
Application programming interface (API)
Designing a brand-new language
Database programming language designed from scratch
First two approaches are more common
Slide 10- 6
Copyright © 2016 and Shamkant B. Navathe
Impedance Mismatch
Differences between database model and programming language model
Binding for each host programming language
Specifies for each attribute type the compatible programming language types
Cursor or iterator variable
Loop over the tuples in a query result
Slide 10- 7
Copyright © 2016 and Shamkant B. Navathe
Typical Sequence of Interaction in Database Programming
Open a connection to database server
Interact with database by submitting queries, updates, and other database commands
Terminate or close connection to database
Slide 10- 8
Copyright © 2016 and Shamkant B. Navathe
Retrieving Single Tuples with Embedded SQL
Preprocessor separates embedded SQL statements from host language code
Terminated by a matching END-EXEC
Or by a semicolon (;)
Shared variables
Used in both the C program and the embedded SQL statements
Prefixed by a colon (:) in SQL statement

Slide 10- 11

Retrieving Single Tuples with Embedded SQL (cont’d.)
Connecting to the database
CONNECT TO
AUTHORIZATION
Change connection
SET CONNECTION
Terminate connection
DISCONNECT
Slide 10- 12

Retrieving Single Tuples with Embedded SQL (cont’d.)
SQLCODE and SQLSTATE communication variables
Used by DBMS to communicate exception or error conditions
SQLCODE variable
0 = statement executed successfully
100 = no more data available in query result
< 0 = indicates some error has occurred
Slide 10- 13
Copyright © 2016 and Shamkant B. Navathe
Retrieving Multiple Tuples with Embedded SQL Using Cursors
Points to a single tuple (row) from result of query
OPEN CURSOR command
Fetches query result and sets cursor to a position before first row in result
Becomes current row for cursor
FETCH commands
Moves cursor to next row in result of query

SQLJ: Embedding SQL Commands in Java
Standard adopted by several vendors for embedding SQL in Java
Import several class libraries
Default context
Uses exceptions for error handling
SQLException is used to return errors or exception conditions

Slide 10- 24

Retrieving Multiple Tuples in SQLJ Using Iterators
Object associated with a collection (set or multiset) of records in a query result
Named iterator
Associated with a query result by listing attribute names and types in query result
Positional iterator
Lists only attribute types in query result

Database Programming with Function Calls: SQL/CLI & JDBC
Use of function calls
Dynamic approach for database programming
Library of functions
Also known as application programming interface (API)
Used to access database
SQL Call Level Interface (SQL/CLI)
Part of SQL standard
Slide 10- 28
Copyright © 2016 and Shamkant B. Navathe
SQL/CLI: Using C
as the Host Language
Environment record
Track one or more database connections
Set environment information
Connection record
Keeps track of information needed for a particular database connection
Statement record
Keeps track of the information needed for one SQL statement
Slide 10- 29
Copyright © 2016 and Shamkant B. Navathe
SQL/CLI: Using C
as the Host Language (cont’d.)
Description record
Keeps track of information about tuples or parameters
Handle to the record
C pointer variable makes record accessible to program
Slide 10- 30

JDBC: SQL Function Calls for Java Programming
Java function libraries
Single Java program can connect to several different databases
Called data sources accessed by the Java program
Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver")
Load a JDBC driver explicitly
Slide 10- 33
Copyright © 2016 and Shamkant B. Navathe
JDBC: SQL Function Calls for Java Programming
Connection object
Statement object has two subclasses:
PreparedStatement and CallableStatement
Question mark (?) symbol
Represents a statement parameter
Determined at runtime
ResultSet object
Holds results of query
Slide 10- 34

Database Stored Procedures
and SQL/PSM
Stored procedures
Program modules stored by the DBMS at the database server
Can be functions or procedures
SQL/PSM (SQL/Persistent Stored Modules)
Extensions to SQL
Include general-purpose programming constructs in SQL
Slide 10- 37

Comparing the Three Approaches
Embedded SQL Approach
Query text checked for syntax errors and validated against database schema at compile time
For complex applications where queries have to be generated at runtime
Function call approach more suitable
