getConcurrentAccessResolution

public int getConcurrentAccessResolution()

This method returns the concurrent access resolution setting. This method has no effect on IBM i V6R1 or earlier. The possible values for this property are AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_NOT_SET, AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_USE_CURRENTLY_COMMITTED, AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_WAIT_FOR_OUTCOME and AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_SKIP_LOCKS, with the property defaulting to AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_NOT_SET. Setting this property to default exhibits the default behavior on the servers i.e., the semantic applied for read transactions to avoid locks will be determined by the server. AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_USE_CURRENTLY_COMMITTED specifies that driver will flow USE CURRENTLY COMMITTED to server. Whether CURRENTLY COMMITTED will actually be in effect is ultimately determined by server. AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_WAIT_FOR_OUTCOME specifies that driver will flow WAIT FOR OUTCOME to server. This will disable the CURRENTLY COMMITTED behavior at the server, if enabled, and the server will wait for the commit or rollback of data in the process of being updated. AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_SKIP_LOCKS specifies that driver will flow SKIP LOCKS to server. This directs the database manager to skip records in the case of record lock conflicts.

Returns:

The concurrent access resolution setting. Possible return valuse: AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_NOT_SET, AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_USE_CURRENTLY_COMMITTED, AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_WAIT_FOR_OUTCOME, or AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_SKIP_LOCKS

getHoldability

public int getHoldability()
                   throws SQLException

Returns the holdability of ResultSets created from this connection.

Specified by:

getHoldability in interface Connection

Returns:

The cursor holdability. Valid values are ResultSet.HOLD_CURSORS_OVER_COMMIT and ResultSet.CLOSE_CURSORS_AT_COMMIT. The holdability is derived in this order of precedence:

• 1. The holdability specified using the method setHoldability(int) if this method was called.
• 2. The value of the cursor hold driver property.

Full functionality of #1 requires support in OS/400 V5R2 or IBM i. If connecting to OS/400 V5R1 or earlier, the value specified on this method will be ignored and the default holdability will be the value of #2.

Throws:

SQLException - If the connection is not open.

Since:

Modification 5

setAutoCommit

public void setAutoCommit(boolean autoCommit)
                   throws SQLException

Sets the auto-commit mode. If the connection is in auto-commit mode, then all of its SQL statements are executed and committed as individual transactions. Otherwise, its SQL statements are grouped into transactions that are terminated by either a commit or rollback.

By default, the connection is in auto-commit mode. The commit occurs when the statement execution completes or the next statement execute occurs, whichever comes first. In the case of statements returning a result set, the statement execution completes when the last row of the result set has been retrieved or the result set has been closed. In advanced cases, a single statement may return multiple results as well as output parameter values. Here the commit occurs when all results and output parameter values have been retrieved.

The auto-commit mode is always false when the connection is part of a distributed transaction. See AS400JDBCXAResource for more information.

Specified by:

setAutoCommit in interface Connection

Parameters:

autoCommit - true to turn on auto-commit mode, false to turn it off.

Throws:

                                   throws SQLException

This method sets concurrent access resolution. This method overrides the setting of ConcurrentAccessResolution on the datasource or connection URL properties. This changes the setting for this connection only. This method has no effect on IBM i V6R1 or earlier. The possible values for this property are AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_NOT_SET, AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_USE_CURRENTLY_COMMITTED, AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_WAIT_FOR_OUTCOME and AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_SKIP_LOCKS, with the property defaulting to AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_NOT_SET. Setting this property to default exhibits the default behavior on the servers i.e., the semantic applied for read transactions to avoid locks will be determined by the server. AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_USE_CURRENTLY_COMMITTED specifies that driver will flow USE CURRENTLY COMMITTED to server. Whether CURRENTLY COMMITTED will actually be in effect is ultimately determined by server. AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_WAIT_FOR_OUTCOME specifies that driver will flow WAIT FOR OUTCOME to server. This will disable the CURRENTLY COMMITTED behavior at the server, if enabled, and the server will wait for the commit or rollback of data in the process of being updated. AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_SKIP_LOCKS specifies that driver will flow SKIP LOCKS to server. This directs the database manager to skip records in the case of record lock conflicts.

Parameters:

concurrentAccessResolution - The current access resolution setting. Possible valuse: AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_NOT_SET, AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_USE_CURRENTLY_COMMITTED, AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_WAIT_FOR_OUTCOME, or AS400JDBCDataSource.CONCURRENTACCESS_SKIP_LOCKS

Throws:

SQLException

setDB2eWLMCorrelator

public void setDB2eWLMCorrelator(byte[] bytes)
                          throws SQLException

Sets the eWLM Correlator. It is assumed a valid correlator value is used. If the value is null, all ARM/eWLM implementation will be turned off. eWLM correlators require IBM i V5R3 or later systems. This request is ignored when running to OS/400 V5R2 or earlier systems.

Parameters:

bytes - The eWLM correlator value

Throws:

SQLException

setHoldability

public void setHoldability(int holdability)
                    throws SQLException

Sets the holdability of ResultSets created from this connection.

Full functionality of this method requires OS/400 V5R2 or IBM i. If connecting to OS/400 V5R1 or earlier, all cursors for the connection will be changed to the value of the variable holdability.

Specified by:

setHoldability in interface Connection

Parameters:

holdability - The cursor holdability. Valid values are ResultSet.HOLD_CURSORS_OVER_COMMIT or ResultSet.CLOSE_CURSORS_AT_COMMIT.

Throws:

SQLException - If the connection is not open or the value passed in is not valid.

setReadOnly

public void setReadOnly(boolean readOnly)
                 throws SQLException

Sets the read-only mode. This will provide read-only access to the database. Read-only mode can be useful by enabling certain database optimizations. If the caller specified "read only" or "read call" for the "access" property, then the read-only mode cannot be set to false. The read-only mode cannot be changed while in the middle of a transaction.

This method can not be called when the connection is part of a distributed transaction. See AS400JDBCXAResource for more information.

Specified by:

setReadOnly in interface Connection

Throws:

SQLException - If the connection is not open, a transaction is active, or the "access" property is set to "read only".

setSavepoint

public Savepoint setSavepoint()
                       throws SQLException

Creates an unnamed savepoint in the current transaction and returns the new Savepoint object that represents it.

• Named savepoints must be unique. A savepoint name cannot be reused until the savepoint is released, committed, or rolled back.
• Savepoints are valid only if autocommit is off. An exception is thrown if autocommit is enabled.
• Savepoints are not valid across XA connections. An exception is thrown if the connection is an XA connection.
• Savepoints require OS/400 V5R2 or IBM i. An exception is thrown if connecting to OS/400 V5R1 or earlier.
• If the connection option is set to keep cursors open after a traditional rollback, cursors will remain open after a rollback to a savepoint.

Specified by:

setSavepoint in interface Connection

Returns:

The new Savepoint object.

Throws:

SQLException - if a database access error occurs or this Connection object is currently in auto-commit mode.

Since:

• Named savepoints must be unique. A savepoint name cannot be reused until the savepoint is released, committed, or rolled back.
• Savepoints are valid only if autocommit is off. An exception is thrown if autocommit is enabled.
• Savepoints are not valid across XA connections. An exception is thrown if the connection is an XA connection.
• Savepoints require OS/400 V5R2 or IBM i. An exception is thrown if connecting to OS/400 V5R1 or earlier.
• If the connection option is set to keep cursors open after a traditional rollback, cursors will remain open after a rollback to a savepoint.

Specified by:

setSavepoint in interface Connection

Parameters:

name - A String containing the name of the savepoint

Returns:

The new Savepoint object.

Throws:

SQLException - if a database access error occurs or this Connection object is currently in auto-commit mode.

Since:

setTransactionIsolation

public void setTransactionIsolation(int level)
                             throws SQLException

Sets the transaction isolation level. The transaction isolation level cannot be changed while in the middle of a transaction.

JDBC and DB2 for IBM i use different terminology for transaction isolation levels. The following table provides a terminology mapping:

IBM i isolation level	JDBC transaction isolation level
*CHG	TRANSACTION_READ_UNCOMMITTED
*CS	TRANSACTION_READ_COMMITTED
*ALL	TRANSACTION_READ_REPEATABLE_READ
*RR	TRANSACTION_SERIALIZABLE

Specified by:

setTransactionIsolation in interface Connection

Parameters:

level - The transaction isolation level. Possible values are:

• TRANSACTION_READ_UNCOMMITTED
• TRANSACTION_READ_COMMITTED
• TRANSACTION_REPEATABLE_READ
• TRANSACTION_SERIALIZABLE

Throws:

SQLException - If the connection is not open, the input level is not valid or unsupported, or a transaction is active.

setTypeMap

public void setTypeMap(Map typeMap)
                throws SQLException

Sets the type map to be used for distinct and structured types.

Note: Distinct types are supported by DB2 for IBM i, but are not externalized by the IBM Toolbox for Java JDBC driver. In other words, distinct types behave as if they are the underlying type. Structured types are not supported by DB2 for IBM i. Consequently, this driver does not support the type map.

Specified by:

setTypeMap in interface Connection

Parameters:

typeMap - The type map.

Throws:

SQLException - This exception is always thrown.

toString

public String toString()

Returns the connection's catalog name. This is the name of the IBM i system.

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

The catalog name.

setClientInfo

public void setClientInfo(String name,
                          String value)
                   throws SQLException

Sets the value of the client info property specified by name to the value specified by value.

The following are client info properties.

• ApplicationName - The name of the application currently utilizing the connection
• ClientUser - The name of the user that the application using the connection is performing work for. This may not be the same as the user name that was used in establishing the connection.
• ClientHostname - The hostname of the computer the application using the connection is running on.
• ClientAccounting - Client accounting information.
• ClientProgramID - The client program identification.

Specified by:

setClientInfo in interface Connection

Parameters:

name - The name of the client info property to set

value - The value to set the client info property to. If the value is null, the current value of the specified property is cleared.

Throws:

SQLException - if the database returns an error while setting the client info value on the database.

setClientInfo

public void setClientInfo(Properties properties)
                   throws SQLException

Sets the value of the connection's client info properties. The Properties object contains the names and values of the client info properties to be set. The set of client info properties contained in the properties list replaces the current set of client info properties on the connection. If a property that is currently set on the connection is not present in the properties list, that property is cleared. Specifying an empty properties list will clear all of the properties on the connection. See setClientInfo (String, String) for more information.

If an error occurs in setting any of the client info properties, a ClientInfoException is thrown. The ClientInfoException contains information indicating which client info properties were not set. The state of the client information is unknown because some databases do not allow multiple client info properties to be set atomically. For those databases, one or more properties may have been set before the error occurred.

The following client info properties are supported in Toobox for Java.

• ApplicationName - The name of the application currently utilizing the connection
• ClientUser - The name of the user that the application using the connection is performing work for. This may not be the same as the user name that was used in establishing the connection.
• ClientHostname - The hostname of the computer the application using the connection is running on.
• ClientAccounting - Client accounting information.
• ClientProgramID - The client program identification.

Specified by:

setClientInfo in interface Connection

Parameters:

properties - the list of client info properties to set

Throws:

SQLException - if the database returns an error while setting the clientInfo values on the database

getClientInfo

public String getClientInfo(String name)
                     throws SQLException
