Hi! I'm working with servlets towards an Sybase System 11 Database, and I'm trying to call a stored procedure that may return mulitple rows. As I've understood (read from the archive) I should use a "CallableStatement" like this: cstmt = conn.prepareCall("{ ? = call p_WEB(?, ?, ?, ?)}") ; where the first ? is the resultset. Should this be registered as an outparameter? What kind of type is it? I've seen code like: cstmt.registerOutParameter(1,OracleTypes.CURSOR); Can I use some of the constants in java.sql.Types, or is there an "SybaseTypes" class?? I've used prepareStatement, is this not the way to go if the procedure returns multiple rows?? Could someone please give me a complete example?? Also some of my in-parameters to the stored procedure are varchar and some are char, which gave me some trouble. Can someone confirm that my code is correct. All comments are most welcome. Regards, Mette ... Here is my code with prepareStatement: Vector ret = new Vector(); ResultSet rs = null; PreparedStatement pstmt=null; pstmt=conn.prepareStatement("exec p_WEB @tjeneste=?,@kategori=?,@applikasjon=?,@tlfnr=?,@kommune=?,@veikode=?, @veinavn=?,@husnr=?,@husbokstav=?,@etasje=?,@leilighet=?"); //char if( tjeneste!=null && tjeneste!="" ) { pstmt.setString(1,tjeneste); } else { pstmt.setNull(1,java.sql.Types.CHAR); } ... //testing the same way for some more parameters ... //varchar if( veinavn!=null && veinavn!="" ) { pstmt.setString(7,veinavn); } else { pstmt.setNull(7,java.sql.Types.VARCHAR); } ... //testing the same way for some more parameters ... rs = pstmt.executeQuery(); SvarInfo svarInfo=null; while(rs.next()) { svarInfo = new SvarInfo(((Integer)rs.getObject("resultatkode")), ((String)rs.getObject("resultat")), (((String)rs.getObject("merknader1"))+((String)rs.getObject("merknader2"))+((String)rs.getObject("merknader3"))), ((String)rs.getObject("nrfslsign")), ((String)rs.getObject("as_lfslsign")), ((String)rs.getObject("utstyrfslsign")), ((String)rs.getObject("gslsignatur")), ((String)rs.getObject("modersign")), ((String)rs.getObject("linjenr")), ((String)rs.getObject("telsisid")), ((String)rs.getObject("leveringsdato")), ((String)rs.getObject("akstype")), ((Integer)rs.getObject("komnr")), ((String)rs.getObject("veikode")), ((String)rs.getObject("veinavn")), ((Integer)rs.getObject("husnr")), ((String)rs.getObject("husbokstav")), ((String)rs.getObject("etasje")), ((String)rs.getObject("leilighetsnr")), ((Integer)rs.getObject("tot_ant"))); ret.addElement(svarInfo); } pstmt.close(); rs.close(); } catch (SQLException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } return ret; } ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
