Inserting records into a MySQL table using Java

Question

I created a database with one table in MySQL:

CREATE DATABASE iac_enrollment_system;

USE iac_enrollment_system;

CREATE TABLE course(
    course_code CHAR(7),
          


        

Answer 1

no that cannot work(not with real data):

String sql = "INSERT INTO course " +
        "VALUES (course_code, course_desc, course_chair)";
    stmt.executeUpdate(sql);

change it to:

String sql = "INSERT INTO course (course_code, course_desc, course_chair)" +
        "VALUES (?, ?, ?)";

Create a PreparedStatment with that sql and insert the values with index:

PreparedStatement preparedStatement = conn.prepareStatement(sql);
preparedStatement.setString(1, "Test");
preparedStatement.setString(2, "Test2");
preparedStatement.setString(3, "Test3");
preparedStatement.executeUpdate();
