H2 is a JAVA database. We can interact with this database by using JDBC. In this chapter, we will see how to create a JDBC connection with H2 database and the CRUD operations with the H2 database.
Generally, there are five steps to create a JDBC connection.
Step 1 − Registering the JDBC database driver.
Class.forName ("org.h2.Driver");
Step 2 − Opening the connection.
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection ("jdbc:h2:~/test", "sa","");
Step 3 − Creating a statement.
Statement st = conn.createStatement();
Step 4 − Executing a statement and receiving Resultset.
Stmt.executeUpdate("sql statement");
Step 5 − Closing a connection.
conn.close();
Before moving on to create a full program, we need to add h2-1.4.192.jar file to CLASSPATH. We can get this jar from the folder C:Program Files (x86)H2bin.
Create Table
In this example, we will write a program for create table. Consider a table named Registration having the following fields.
| S.No | Column Name | Data Type | NOT NULL | Primary Key |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | ID | Number | Yes | Yes |
| 2 | First | Varchar(255) | No | No |
| 3 | Last | Varchar(255) | No | No |
| 4 | Age | Number | No | No |
Following is an example program named H2jdbcCreateDemo.
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.sql.Statement;
public class H2jdbcCreateDemo {
// JDBC driver name and database URL
static final String JDBC_DRIVER = "org.h2.Driver";
static final String DB_URL = "jdbc:h2:~/test";
// Database credentials
static final String USER = "sa";
static final String PASS = "";
public static void main(String[] args) {
Connection conn = null;
Statement stmt = null;
try {
// STEP 1: Register JDBC driver
Class.forName(JDBC_DRIVER);
//STEP 2: Open a connection
System.out.println("Connecting to database...");
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(DB_URL,USER,PASS);
//STEP 3: Execute a query
System.out.println("Creating table in given database...");
stmt = conn.createStatement();
String sql = "CREATE TABLE REGISTRATION " +
"(id INTEGER not NULL, " +
" first VARCHAR(255), " +
" last VARCHAR(255), " +
" age INTEGER, " +
" PRIMARY KEY ( id ))";
stmt.executeUpdate(sql);
System.out.println("Created table in given database...");
// STEP 4: Clean-up environment
stmt.close();
conn.close();
} catch(SQLException se) {
//Handle errors for JDBC
se.printStackTrace();
} catch(Exception e) {
//Handle errors for Class.forName
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
//finally block used to close resources
try{
if(stmt!=null) stmt.close();
} catch(SQLException se2) {
} // nothing we can do
try {
if(conn!=null) conn.close();
} catch(SQLException se){
se.printStackTrace();
} //end finally try
} //end try
System.out.println("Goodbye!");
}
}
Save the above program into H2jdbcCreateDemo.java. Compile and execute the above program by executing the following commands in the command prompt.
>javac H2jdbcCreateDemo.java >java H2jdbcCreateDemo
The above command produces the following output.
Connecting to database... Creating table in given database... Created table in given database... Goodbye!
After this execution, we can check the table created using the H2 SQL interface.
Insert Records
In this example, we will write a program for inserting records. Let us insert the following records into the table Registration.
| ID | First | Last | Age |
|---|---|---|---|
| 100 | Zara | Ali | 18 |
| 101 | Mahnaz | Fatma | 25 |
| 102 | Zaid | Khan | 30 |
| 103 | Sumit | Mital | 28 |
Following is an example program named H2jdbcInsertDemo.
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.sql.Statement;
public class H2jdbcInsertDemo {
// JDBC driver name and database URL
static final String JDBC_DRIVER = "org.h2.Driver";
static final String DB_URL = "jdbc:h2:~/test";
// Database credentials
static final String USER = "sa";
static final String PASS = "";
public static void main(String[] args) {
Connection conn = null;
Statement stmt = null;
try{
// STEP 1: Register JDBC driver
Class.forName(JDBC_DRIVER);
// STEP 2: Open a connection
System.out.println("Connecting to a selected database...");
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(DB_URL,USER,PASS);
System.out.println("Connected database successfully...");
// STEP 3: Execute a query
stmt = conn.createStatement();
String sql = "INSERT INTO Registration " + "VALUES (100, ''Zara'', ''Ali'', 18)";
stmt.executeUpdate(sql);
sql = "INSERT INTO Registration " + "VALUES (101, ''Mahnaz'', ''Fatma'', 25)";
stmt.executeUpdate(sql);
sql = "INSERT INTO Registration " + "VALUES (102, ''Zaid'', ''Khan'', 30)";
stmt.executeUpdate(sql);
sql = "INSERT INTO Registration " + "VALUES(103, ''Sumit'', ''Mittal'', 28)";
stmt.executeUpdate(sql);
System.out.println("Inserted records into the table...");
// STEP 4: Clean-up environment
stmt.close();
conn.close();
} catch(SQLException se) {
// Handle errors for JDBC
se.printStackTrace();
} catch(Exception e) {
// Handle errors for Class.forName
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
// finally block used to close resources
try {
if(stmt!=null) stmt.close();
} catch(SQLException se2) {
} // nothing we can do
try {
if(conn!=null) conn.close();
} catch(SQLException se) {
se.printStackTrace();
} // end finally try
} // end try
System.out.println("Goodbye!");
}
}
Save the above program into H2jdbcInsertDemo.java. Compile and execute the above program by executing the following commands in the command prompt.
>javac H2jdbcInsertDemo.java >java H2jdbcInsertDemo
The above command produces the following output.
Connecting to a selected database... Connected database successfully... Inserted records into the table... Goodbye!
Read Record
In this example, we will write a program for reading records. Let us try to read all records from the table Registration.
Following is an example program named H2jdbcRecordDemo.
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.sql.Statement;
public class H2jdbcReadDemo {
// JDBC driver name and database URL
static final String JDBC_DRIVER = "org.h2.Driver";
static final String DB_URL = "jdbc:h2:~/test";
// Database credentials
static final String USER = "sa";
static final String PASS = "";
public static void main(String[] args) {
Connection conn = null;
Statement stmt = null;
try {
// STEP 1: Register JDBC driver
Class.forName(JDBC_DRIVER);
// STEP 2: Open a connection
System.out.println("Connecting to database...");
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(DB_URL,USER,PASS);
// STEP 3: Execute a query
System.out.println("Connected database successfully...");
stmt = conn.createStatement();
String sql = "SELECT id, first, last, age FROM Registration";
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(sql);
// STEP 4: Extract data from result set
while(rs.next()) {
// Retrieve by column name
int id = rs.getInt("id");
int age = rs.getInt("age");
String first = rs.getString("first");
String last = rs.getString("last");
// Display values
System.out.print("ID: " + id);
System.out.print(", Age: " + age);
System.out.print(", First: " + first);
System.out.println(", Last: " + last);
}
// STEP 5: Clean-up environment
rs.close();
} catch(SQLException se) {
// Handle errors for JDBC
se.printStackTrace();
} catch(Exception e) {
// Handle errors for Class.forName
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
// finally block used to close resources
try {
if(stmt!=null) stmt.close();
} catch(SQLException se2) {
} // nothing we can do
try {
if(conn!=null) conn.close();
} catch(SQLException se) {
se.printStackTrace();
} // end finally try
} // end try
System.out.println("Goodbye!");
}
}
