Class SQLValueProvider

java.lang.Object
  com.inet.report.SQLValueProvider

All Implemented Interfaces:

DynamicValueProvider, NodeParser, java.io.Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

FieldValueProvider, QueryValueProvider

public abstract class SQLValueProvider
extends java.lang.Object
implements DynamicValueProvider

This implementation of DynamicValueProvider takes a given SQL statement and executes it as a query on the given data source. This is done via Connection.createStatement() and Statement.executeQuery(String), which means that the SQL query can be any standard SQL statement. SPs also work for most databases, but not for Oracle or PostgreSQL.
The ResultSet returned should have one column for the value and, if desired, one for the description of each default value.

Field Summary

static int

MAX_RECORDS The maximum number of records that will be fetched before the rest are ignored and the prompt becomes editable.

Method Summary

abstract Datasource	getDatasource() Returns the data source the query is to be run on
DefaultValue[]	getDefaultValues() Returns an array of DefaultValue objects for a prompt field.
abstract java.lang.String	getSQL() Returns the query which is to be used for fetching the values and optionally descriptions dynamically.
