Hi all,

I'm new to Java/JDBC. I'm using JSP and i'm using
Resin 1.2 for JSP. Ok Now.. i have following doubts
regarding JDBC / JSP:

1. Suppose i have executed a query and got the results
in result set rs. Then which of the following is the
best method to browse through the records fetched:

Result rs = st.executeQuery("select *....");

Method 1:
---------

while (rs.next())
{
   // get the records, do some operations
}

Method 2:
--------

ResultSetMetaData rsMeta = rs.getMetaData();
int numCols = rsMeta.getColumnCount();

for (int i=0; i<numCols; i++) {
   // get the records
}

Which one of the above two methods is good in terms of
fastness, performance ?

2. I have a question regarding persistance of DB
connection between the JSP to Servlet calls? I mean in
a JSP i have a database handle returned from a
connection class bean. And can i pass this connection
handle to other program (either JSP, Servlet)??
Whether this handle is persistant from that other
program? Shall i be able to query the same db from the
second program?

Pardon me for the ignorance.

Thanks in advance,
kindly help,
Venu
