Hi,
I'm a newbie to java programming. Just like to ask how to do this stuff. Basically, i have a Bean, say Employee Bean. I populate it with the setter method after issuing a select statement.
I would like to ask how to pass values from a java bean to a collection, example :
Collection<EmployeeBean> method name() , this is how i declared it.
Thanks
Basically, i have a method that will return a Collection of Bean.
public Collection<PersonBean> getResults(String query) ,
in which query contains my sql select statement.
then i issued this following commands inside this method,
Statement stmt = cn,createStatement();
Resultset rs = stmt.executeQuery(query);
Then, i put the fetched records in a bean
while (rs.next()) {
personbean.setName(rs.getString("name"));
personbean.setAddress(rs.getString("address"));
}
Assuming i have a personBean and a DBConnection already established.
My question is how can i add each record to a collection, everytime rs.next loops, because the method will return a collection of bean.
Thank you very much. Any reply would much be appreciated
and also, don't forget to create a NEW instance of your bean for each record you want to add to the list. Otherwise you end up adding the same element to your collection multiple times, and then editing it.
Collection<personBean> people = new ArrayList();
while (rs.next()) {
EmployeeBean personbean = new EmployeeBean();
personbean.setName(rs.getString("name"));
personbean.setAddress(rs.getString("address"));
people.add(personbean);
}
return people;
if you don't mind, i have a follow -up question related to above topic.
After returning the method as a collection of personBean. How can I put those values, for instance the name into a JLIST.
Thanks again...
> How can I put those values, for instance the name into a JLIST.
Look at the constructors and methods available in the JList class and see if you can come up with an answer on your own first.
