DB2, JavaBeans

Submit/Retrieve to DB2 - Xpages Button (Part 2)

Xpages



System Requirements:

Download DB2 Express-C

http://www-01.ibm.com/software/data/db2/express/download.html


Download Domino Designer 8.5.3 Environment (DDE)

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/downloads/ls/dominodesigner/


Introduction:

Configure CLASSPATH on Windows 7 OS for the DB2 Application, reference necessary jar files through your project Build Path, connect to DB2 using a Xpage form button load and retrieve data; see log.nsf for the results. Information that can be used to later search the current DOMINODB database dynamically via links on Xpages...


Disclaimer:

Information contained in the following is presented as is. This tutorial assumes you have basic programming knowledge. All tutorials are based on an Eclipse/Eclipse-based software. Should you need to familiarize yourself with a certain Eclipse environment, prior to continuing this tutorial, please stop now and see our Tutorials page...


Configure ClassPath/Build Path (Reference Jar Files)

Let's add ClassPath variables and load jar files from the DB2 installation directory to Lotus Notes installation directory to begin the process. You will need to configure your project's Build Path to include the specific jar files to your programs so they run. We do recommend restarting DB2 and DDE after configuration steps have been met. See screenshots below, then Copy and paste below code samples to your environement... areas of interest have been highlighted for your convenience, screenshots included.


CONTROL PANEL

Do these steps for ClassPath

  1. Open Control Panel

  2. Select System and Secutiry

  3. Click on System

  4. Then choose Advanced Systems Settings option @ left

  5. In Pop-Up, choose Advanced Tab

  6. Find and click Environement Variables button below

  7. Select and Edit CLASSPATH information in System Variables Window

  8. Load jar files as shown below from the following DB2 directory C:\PROGRA~1\IBM\SQLLIB\java\db2java.zip;C:\PROGRA~1\IBM\SQLLIB\java

 
 

Establish a connection to DOMINODB (DB2)

See below two Java class files, identical to previous work submitted for SQLite Database, nothing fancy. Copy and paste to your environement, areas of interest have been highlighted for your convenience.

Submit and retrieve DB2 Data from DOMINODB

You have a connector class and it looks like it will work, Now what? Well, submit static data to DOMINODB and retrieve @ once. Copy and paste to your environement, areas of interest have been highlighted for your convenience.


DB2AddDataBean;

/**

* Created: 2012.10.28.1.40.PM

package com.dokoll.solutions.inc.db2.test;

/**

* @version 2012.10.28.1.40.PM

*

*/

import java.sql.*;


import com.dokoll.solutions.inc.Utils.DB2Connector;


public class DB2AddDataBean {

public DB2AddDataBean(){

//...

}


//button code...

public void doGetDB2Data() throws Exception {


System.out.println("Entering actual connection...");

Connection connection = DB2Connector.getConnection();

System.out.println("Begin statement...");

Statement stat = connection.createStatement();

System.out.println("Entering query...");

PreparedStatement prep = connection.prepareStatement("insert into DB2ADMIN.USER_DETAILS values (?,?,?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)");

// //Added Data for report

// //2012.10.28.9.03.PM

prep.setString(1, "XYZ002FBC");

prep.setString(2, "username16");

prep.setString(3, "XYZ002FBCCHI");

prep.setString(4, "Chcago");

prep.setString(5, "XYZ002FBCNAME13");

prep.setString(6, "10/01/2011");

prep.setString(7, "20");

prep.setString(8, "HamBerg, Inc.");

prep.setString(9, "88885555199");

prep.setString(10, "2011.10.11.11.10.AM");

prep.setString(11, "Windy City");

prep.addBatch();

prep.setString(1, "XYZ002FBC");

prep.setString(2, "username15");

prep.setString(3, "XYZ002FBCCHI");

prep.setString(4, "Chicago");

prep.setString(5, "XYZ002FBCNAME14");

prep.setString(6, "01/01/2012");

prep.setString(7, "49");

prep.setString(8, "GreenRoofTops, Inc.");

prep.setString(9, "77778888111");

prep.setString(10, "2011.10.19.1.10.AM");

prep.setString(11, "Windy City");

prep.addBatch();


System.out.println("Values added...");

connection.setAutoCommit(false);

prep.executeBatch();

connection.setAutoCommit(true);

ResultSet rs = stat.executeQuery("select * from DB2ADMIN.USER_DETAILS");

System.out.println("Submitting to console...");

while (rs.next()) {

System.out.println("ID |"+"AllegationCode|"+"Office |"+"Investigator|"+"DateOpen |"+"Age |"+"AllegationNumber|"+"Licensee |"+"Subject |"+"Region |");

System.out.println(rs.getString("ID")+" |"+rs.getString("AllegationCode")+" |"+rs.getString("Office")+" |"+ rs.getString("Investigator")+" |"+ rs.getString("DateOpen")+" |"+ rs.getString("Age")+ " |"+ rs.getString("AllegationNumber")+ " |"+ rs.getString("Licensee")+" |" +rs.getString("Subject")+ " |"+ rs.getString("Region"));


}

rs.close();

connection.close();

}

}




Submit and retrieve DB2 Data with Xpages

You have a connector class and a JavaBean rigged to submit and retrieve data from DB2 database (DOMINODB), but you need to run code and perform tasks... Plug your JavaBean's method into the following Xpages form button, and check log.nsf database for the results; see previous screenshots to get an idea how this might look. Copy and paste to your environement, areas of interest have been highlighted for your convenience.

xprundb2.xsp;


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<xp:view xmlns:xp="http://www.ibm.com/xsp/core">

<head>

<title>DB2 Example</title>

</head>

<body>

<xp:form>

<table>

<tr>

<td style="font-weight:bold">Add/Retrieve DB2 Data</td>

<td>

<xp:button value="Submit"

id="button1">

<xp:eventHandler event="onclick"

submit="true" refreshMode="complete" immediate="false"

save="true" id="eventHandler1">


<xp:this.action><![CDATA[#{javascript:DB2AddDataBean.doGetDB2Data()}]]></xp:this.action>

</xp:eventHandler>

</xp:button>

</td>

</tr>

</table>

</xp:form>

</body>

</html>



</xp:view>

 
See screenshots and full turorial here:


Conclusion:

You can now use an Xpages form button to connect to DB2 database to add and retrieve data. Build on this one to retrieve records into a dataTable, perhaps submit values as documents in Lotus Notes, search back-end via Xpages.
