Before start of result set running multiple sql

I'm currently working on an application for a restaurant. The idea for the code I'm currently working on is that it gets the name from a combobox and inserts a receipt into the database whith the employee number of the person who is working on it. The code whith which I'm trying to do it is:
RestaurantOrder sqlRestaurantOrder = new RestaurantOrder();
ActionListener printReceiptListner;
printReceiptListner = (ActionEvent) -> {
int ID = Integer.parseInt(input1.getText());
try {
SystemManager manager = new SystemManager();
ResultSet rs = manager.stmt.executeQuery(sqlRestaurantOrder.setIdSql(ID));
while (rs.next()) {
double totalPrice = rs.getDouble("sumprice");
if (ID > 0) {
Receipt receiptSql = new Receipt();
String firstName = (String) cb.getSelectedItem();
String checkoutDate = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMdd").format(Calendar.getInstance().getTime());
ResultSet rs2 = manager.stmt.executeQuery(receiptSql.getEmployeeId(firstName));
int employeeId = rs2.getInt("id");
while (rs2.next()) {
Receipt receiptSql2 = new Receipt();
ResultSet rs3 = manager.stmt.executeQuery(receiptSql2.SetStatusReceipt(employeeId, checkoutDate, ID, totalPrice));
while (rs3.next()) {
}
}
}
}
} catch (SQLException k) {
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, k.getMessage());
}
};
The statements are:
public class Receipt {
public String sql;
public String sql2;
public String getEmployeeId(String firstName){
return sql2 = "SELECT id FROM employee WHERE firstName = '" + firstName + "';";
}
public String SetStatusReceipt(int employeeId, String checkoutDate, int id, double totalPrice){
return sql = "INSERT INTO `receipt` (`employeeId`, `price`, `restaurantOrderId`, `checkoutDate`) VALUES (" + employeeId + " , " + totalPrice + ", " + id + ", " + checkoutDate + ");";
};
}
I'm getting the error before start of result set which I looked up what it means but I can't get it fixed at the moment. Help will be appreciated.
If I forgot to post more important code let me know I'll update it

You have to call ResultSet.next() before you are able to access the fields of that ResultSet. So you need to move your assignment of employeeId into your while loop:
while (rs2.next()) {
int employeeId = rs2.getInt("id");
From the documentation of ResultSet.next():
A ResultSet cursor is initially positioned before the first row; the first call to the method next makes the first row the current row; the second call makes the second row the current row, and so on.

Sqite select query row doesn't work

I use JDBC to get data from sqlite data base. In DB I have 3 column - login, password and role. I try find row by login, but it doesn't work , and I have exeption when I try getString("password") or "role", where is the mistake? Thanks
resSet = statmt.executeQuery("SELECT * FROM users WHERE login='"+login+"';");
if( hasUser( login)){
System.out.println("User finded:");
while(resSet.next()) {
System.out.println("login = " + resSet.getString("login"));
// !exeption
System.out.println("password = " + resSet.getString("password"));
// !exeption
System.out.println("role = " + resSet.getString("role"));
System.out.println();
}
}else{
System.out.println( "User not found");
}

You can check to see what column names are being returned.
ResultSetMetaData rsmd = resSet.getMetaData();
int colCount = rsmd.getColumnCount();
String rValue = "";
for (int i = 1; i <= colCount ; i++){
String name = rsmd.getColumnName(i);
rValue += name + " ";
}
System.out.println(rValue);

ResultSetMetaData metaData = resultSet.getMetaData();
int count = metaData.getColumnCount(); //number of column
String columnName[] = new String[count];
for (int i = 1; i <= count; i++)
{
metaData.getColumnLabel(i));
}
Refer to this ans..ans see what are the names of your columns in resultant set

how to correctly MySQL "desc table" via java connectivity

I am actually building a project where the names of tables present in databases of mysql are displayed in a list in java.
user selects a table from a list and the description of that table in given using "desc tablename" command.
The problem is, it is supposed to get every field in table but it only gets first field. Below i have explained it more, but first heres my code-:
try {
int rowCount = tableModel.getRowCount();
for (int i = 0; i < rowCount; i++) {
tableModel.removeRow(i);
}
String z = jList2.getSelectedValue().toString();
try {
Class.forName("java.sql.DriverManager");
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
timeget();
jTextArea4.append(now + ": " + "/ Failed in getting Driver \n Error Message: " + e.getMessage() + " / \n \n");
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this, e.getMessage());
}
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:" + GlobalParams.portvar + "/", "" + k, "" + j);
stmnt = (Statement) con.createStatement();
String query = "desc " + z;
jTextArea5.append(now + ": " + "/ desc " + z + "; / \n \n");
ResultSet rs = stmnt.executeQuery(query);
String[] cnames = {"Field", "Type", "Null", "Key", "Extra"};
tableModel.setColumnIdentifiers(cnames);
jTable1.setAutoResizeMode(JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_ALL_COLUMNS);
jTable1.setFillsViewportHeight(true);
if (rs.next()) {
String field = rs.getString("Field");
String type = rs.getString("type");
String nullinfo = rs.getString("null");
String key = rs.getString("key");
String extra = rs.getString("extra");
tableModel.addRow(new Object[]{field, type, nullinfo, key, extra});
}
catch(SQLException e){//some blabla}
Now for detailing into problem->
Say from the list, i select a table called "city". Originally, it has four fields- ID, Name, Population, CountryCode. But in my jTable, only "ID" appears.
the code...
int rowCount = tableModel.getRowCount();
for (int i = 0; i < rowCount; i++) {
tableModel.removeRow(i);
}
...is simply to remove fields of old table when a new table is selected from list.
Hope i clarified my prob.
Please help regarding this. Thanks.

the problem is in this
if (rs.next()) {
String field = rs.getString("Field");
String type = rs.getString("type");
String nullinfo = rs.getString("null");
String key = rs.getString("key");
String extra = rs.getString("extra");
tableModel.addRow(new Object[]{field, type, nullinfo, key, extra});
}
you are not continuing the loop
change the if loop to while loop
while(rs.next()) {
String field = rs.getString("Field");
String type = rs.getString("type");
String nullinfo = rs.getString("null");
String key = rs.getString("key");
String extra = rs.getString("extra");
tableModel.addRow(new Object[]{field, type, nullinfo, key, extra});
}

Java - How to get Column name on Result Set [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
Retrieve column names from java.sql.ResultSet
(14 answers)
Closed 8 years ago.
Hello I'm trying to make an error when there is no matched student...
and it will display like this
No matching records found and I want the column name still the same but still not figuring it out... can some one tell me if this is right??
Heres my function for that... and I add comment there where I put the error... but i don't know how to get the columnname
public void SearchTableStudent() {
String tempSearchValue = searchStudent.getText().trim();
boolean empty = true;
sql = "SELECT student_id as 'Student ID',"
+ "concat(lastname, ' , ', firstname, ' ', middlename) as 'Name'"
+ "FROM user "
+ "WHERE CAST(student_id as CHAR) LIKE '%" + tempSearchValue + "%'";
try {
pst = conn.prepareStatement(sql);
rs = pst.executeQuery();
while(rs.next()) {
table.setModel(DbUtils.resultSetToTableModel(rs));
empty = false;
}
if(empty) {
String error = "";
table.setModel(new javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel(
new Object [][] {
{"No matching records found",null}
},
new String [] {
/** I WANT TO PUT THE SAME COLUMN NAME ON MY DATABASE SELECTED BUT DON't Know
WHAT FUNCTION TO DO*/
}
));
}
} catch (Exception e) {
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, e.getMessage());
}
}
I try like this but still gave me NULL!!!
this code is below of empty = false;
for(int i=0; i<table.getColumnCount(); i++) {
test[i] = table.getColumnName(i);
}

ResultSetMetaData metaData = resultSet.getMetaData();
int count = metaData.getColumnCount(); //number of column
String columnName[] = new String[count];
for (int i = 1; i <= count; i++)
{
columnName[i-1] = metaData.getColumnLabel(i);
System.out.println(columnName[i-1]);
}

Try this.
ResultSetMetaData meta = resultset.getMetaData();
Integer columncount = meta.getColumnCount();
int count = 1 ; // start counting from 1 always
String[] columnNames = new String[columncount];
while(count<=columncount){
columnNames [count-1] = meta.getColumnLabel(count);
count++;
}
Since here your expecting is to get the columns alias instead of column name, so you have to use ResultSetMetaData.getColumnLabel instead of ResultSetmetaData.getColumnName.

Get ResultSetMetaData using ResultSet#getMetaData():
ResultSetMetaData meta = rs.getMetaData();
And then to get column name of 1st column:
String col1Name = meta.getColumnLabel(1);
Similarly to get column name of 2nd column:
String col2Name = meta.getColumnLabel(2);

Get the metadata
ResultSetMetaData metaData = rs.getMetaData();
Then you can do:
String columnName = metaData.getColumnName(int index);
ResultSetMetaData doc

rs.getMetaData().getColumnName(int i);
and do not concat the query param!

Retrieving contents of a user-specified table

The code below displays the tuples of an specific table. How can I turn this into dynamic code? So the user would enter the name of the table, then the rows and column names in addition to the content of the table are displayed.
* Keep in mind that res.getInt and res.getString need to be specified as they are. In a dynamic model, I wouldn't need to know the number, type, and name of the columns. *
public void displayTableA()
{
//Connection already established
Statement st = conn.createStatement();
ResultSet res = st.executeQuery("SELECT * FROM A");
System.out.println("A_code: " + "\t" + "A_name: ");
while (res.next()) {
int r = res.getInt("A_code");
String s = res.getString("A_name");
System.out.println(r + "\t\t" + s);
}
conn.close();
}

Direct answer: The query is just a string. You can build it up from user inputs. Like read the name of the table into a variable, say "String tablename", then
String query="select * from " + tablename;
Then you run the query to get the result set:
ResultSet rs=st.executeQuery(query);
Then get the meta data for the result set:
ResultSetMetaData meta=rs.getMetaData();
Then loop through the columns getting their names:
for (int x=1;x<=meta.getColumnCount();++x)
{
String columnName=meta.getColumnName(x);
... do whatever you want with this column name ...
}
(Note the columns are numbered starting from 1, not 0.)
As to the data itself, if you're just dumping it out, you don't need to know the type. Just do getString on everything. Every data type can be converted to a string. Well, if you have blobs or images you might want to check for those. There's a ResultSetMetaData function to get the column type, I think it's getType or something like that. Check the javadocs.
That said, why do you want to do this? If you're building some sort of tool to be used by developers to do ad hoc queries, okay fine. But I would be extremely cautious about exposing something like this to end users. (a) They would be unlikely to understand the data, and (b) You'd be creating a huge security hole, users could see ANY data in the system. You could potentially wrap this in checks to limit the users to what they're authorized to see, but it's a lot of work to get that right. It's a lot easier to say "here's what you are allowed to see" then to try to say "here's what you're not allowed to see".

public void displayTable(String table)
{
//Connection already established
Statement st = conn.createStatement();
ResultSet res = st.executeQuery("SELECT * FROM " + table);
ResultSetMetaData rsmd = res.getMetaData();
while (res.next()) {
for(int ii = 1; ii <= rsmd.getColumnCount(); ii++) {
// get type
int type = rsmt.getColumnType(ii);
String value = null;
switch (type) {
case Types.VARCHAR: value = res.getString(ii); break;
}
// print value.
System.out.print(rsmd.getColumnName(ii) + ": " + value);
}
}
conn.close();
}

If you want print a ResultSet in a dynamic query converting a instance of ResultSet in String:
public static String toString(ResultSet rs) throws SQLException {
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
ResultSetMetaData metaData = rs.getMetaData();
int columnCount = metaData.getColumnCount();
Map<Integer, Integer> sizeMap = new HashMap<>();
for (int column = 1; column <= columnCount; column++) {
int size = Math.max(metaData.getColumnDisplaySize(column), metaData.getColumnName(column).length());
sizeMap.put(column, size);
sb.append(StringUtils.rightPad(metaData.getColumnName(column), size));
sb.append(' ');
sb.append(' ');
}
sb.append('\n');
for (int column = 1; column <= columnCount; column++) {
sb.append(StringUtils.rightPad("", sizeMap.get(column), '-'));
sb.append(' ');
sb.append(' ');
}
while(rs.next()) {
sb.append('\n');
for (int columnIndex = 1; columnIndex <= columnCount; columnIndex++) {
String str = rs.getString(columnIndex);
if (str == null) {
str = "(null)";
}
sb.append(StringUtils.rightPad(str, sizeMap.get(columnIndex)));
sb.append(' ');
sb.append(' ');
}
}
return sb.toString();
}
For print something like that:
user_id user_code date_update
------------ -------------------- -------------------
01006393 00989573 2011-09-29 19:23:46
00984742 20192498 2011-12-21 00:00:00
This method use Commons Lang 3
Note: You should use this with care for avoid memory errors. You can change the sb.append with System.out.print or System.out.println
