getting out parameter from mysql stored procedure in java

Question

I am having problem retrieving OUT parameter from mysql stored procedure in java.

CALL proc_after_topic_add(\'newtest\',@result);
SELECT @result;
         


        

Answer 1

Create a schema test and create a table employee in schema with 2 columns.  
id and employeename and insert some data.

Use this Stored Procedure.
DELIMITER $$
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS `test`.`get_count_name1` $$
CREATE PROCEDURE  `test`.`get_count_name1`(IN the_name VARCHAR(64),OUT     
the_count INT)

BEGIN
SELECT COUNT(*) INTO the_count from employee where employeename=the_name;
END$$
DELIMITER ;

Use this example. username and password are root and root for me. change as per your
requirement. Here i am counting the occurence of employeename="deepak"

import java.sql.*;
public class JDBCExample {
   // JDBC driver name and database URL
   static final String JDBC_DRIVER = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";  
   static final String DB_URL = "jdbc:mysql://localhost/test";

   //  Database credentials
   static final String USER = "root";
   static final String PASS = "root";

   public static void main(String[] args) {
   Connection conn = null;
   CallableStatement stmt = null;
   try{
      //STEP 2: Register JDBC driver
      Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");

      //STEP 3: Open a connection
      System.out.println("Connecting to database...");
      conn = DriverManager.getConnection(DB_URL,USER,PASS);

      //STEP 4: Execute a query
      System.out.println("Creating statement...");
      String sql = "{call get_count_name1 (?, ?)}";
      stmt = conn.prepareCall(sql);

      //Bind IN parameter first, then bind OUT parameter
      String name = "Deepak";
      stmt.setString(1, name); // This would set ID as 102
      // Because second parameter is OUT so register it
      stmt.registerOutParameter(2, java.sql.Types.INTEGER);

      //Use execute method to run stored procedure.
      System.out.println("Executing stored procedure..." );
      stmt.execute();

     int count=stmt.getInt(2);
     System.out.println(count);
      stmt.close();
      conn.close();
   }catch(SQLException se){
      //Handle errors for JDBC
      se.printStackTrace();
   }catch(Exception e){
      //Handle errors for Class.forName
      e.printStackTrace();
   }finally{
      //finally block used to close resources
      try{
         if(stmt!=null)
            stmt.close();
      }catch(SQLException se2){
      }// nothing we can do
      try{
         if(conn!=null)
            conn.close();
      }catch(SQLException se){
         se.printStackTrace();
      }//end finally try
   }//end try
   System.out.println("Goodbye!");
}//end main
}//end JDBCExample
