4.5.7 Retrieve Data
To make things more interesting, let's make a call to the database via the JavaScript and then display the results.
You will be using the SQL statement:
select * from DUMMY
This is test SQL to check connectivity, and returns one row with one field called DUMMY, whose value is X.
1. In MyFirstSourceFile.xsjs, delete or comment out all your existing code.
2. Add the following code:
$.response.contentType = "text/html";
var output = "Hello, World !";
var conn = $.db.getConnection();
var pstmt = conn.prepareStatement( "select * from DUMMY" );
var rs = pstmt.executeQuery();
if (!rs.next()) {
$.response.setBody( "Failed to retrieve data" );
$.response.status = $.net.http.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR;
} else {
output = output + "This is the response from my SQL: " +
rs.getString(1);
}
rs.close();
pstmt.close();
conn.close();
$.response.setBody(output);
3. Save the file.
4. Commit the file by right-clicking the file and selecting Team Commit .
5. Activate the file by right-clicking the file and selecting Team Activate .
