Finally my program which accesses the MySQL database using the above context.xml ‘s datasource definition follows:
package dsweb;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.sql.Statement;
import javax.naming.Context;
import javax.naming.InitialContext;
import javax.naming.NamingException;
import javax.sql.DataSource;
public class DStest extends HttpServlet {
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, java.io.IOException {
response.setContentType("text/html");
java.io.PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.println("<html><head><title>Data Source test</title></head><body>");
out.println("<h2>Data Source test by ARS</h2>");
try{
getData(out);
} catch(Exception e){out.println("problem "+ "<BR>"); e.printStackTrace();};
out.println("finitooooooooooo"+ "<BR>");
out.println("</body></html>");
} //end doGet
public void getData(java.io.PrintWriter out) throws Exception {
out.println("getData "+ "<BR>");
InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
DataSource ds = (DataSource)ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/MySQLDB");
out.println("datasource is read " + "<BR>");
Connection conn = null;
Statement stmt = null;
ResultSet rs = null;
try {
conn = ds.getConnection();
out.println("connection is created "+ "<BR>");
stmt = conn.createStatement();
String textQuery = "select * from users";
rs = stmt.executeQuery(textQuery);
while (rs.next()) {
System.out.println(rs.getString("FIRST_NAME") + " " + rs.getString("LAST_NAME") + " "
+ rs.getString("AGE"));
out.println(rs.getString("FIRST_NAME") + " " + rs.getString("LAST_NAME") + " "
+ rs.getString("AGE")+ "<BR>");
}
stmt.close();
stmt = null;
conn.close();
conn = null;
} finally {
/*
* close any jdbc instances here that weren't
* explicitly closed during normal code path, so
* that we don't 'leak' resources...
*/
if (stmt != null) {
try {
stmt.close();
} catch (SQLException sqlex) {
// ignore -- as we can't do anything about it here
}
stmt = null;
}
if (conn != null) {
try {
conn.close();
} catch (SQLException sqlex) {
// ignore -- as we can't do anything about it here
}
conn = null;
}
}
}
}
Please be informed that you need to have DB named “testars” and a table on this DB named “users”.
I obtained the definition of the “users” with TOAD:
CREATE TABLE `users` (
`USER_ID` varchar(30) DEFAULT NULL,
`FIRST_NAME` varchar(30) DEFAULT NULL,
`LAST_NAME` varchar(30) DEFAULT NULL,
`AGE` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,
`EMAIL` varchar(15) DEFAULT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;
The DATA is:
USER_ID FIRST_NAME LAST_NAME AGE EMAIL
userid1 first1 last1 21 first1@some.com
userid2 first2 last2 21 first2@some.com
userid3 first3 last3 21 first3@some.com
userid4 first4 last4 21 first4@some.com
userid5 first5 last5 21 first5@some.com

After the program ran, the output was:
Data Source test by ARS
getData datasource is read connection is created
first1 last1 21
first2 last2 21
first3 last3 21
first4 last4 21
first5 last5 21
