Interface PGConnection

public interface PGConnection

This interface defines the public PostgreSQL extensions to java.sql.Connection. All Connections returned by the PostgreSQL driver implement PGConnection.

Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	addDataType(java.lang.String type, java.lang.Class klass) This allows client code to add a handler for one of org.postgresql's more unique data types.
void	addDataType(java.lang.String type, java.lang.String name) Deprecated. As of 8.0, replaced by addDataType(String,Class). This deprecated method does not work correctly for registering classes that cannot be directly loaded by the JDBC driver's classloader.
int	getBackendPID() Return the process ID (PID) of the backend server process handling this connection.
CopyManager	getCopyAPI() This returns the COPY API for the current connection.
Fastpath	getFastpathAPI() This returns the Fastpath API for the current connection.
LargeObjectManager	getLargeObjectAPI() This returns the LargeObject API for the current connection.
PGNotification[]	getNotifications() This method returns any notifications that have been received since the last call to this method.
int	getPrepareThreshold() Get the default server-side prepare reuse threshold for statements created from this connection.
void	setPrepareThreshold(int threshold) Set the default statement reuse threshold before enabling server-side prepare.

Method Detail

getNotifications

PGNotification[] getNotifications()
                                  throws java.sql.SQLException

This method returns any notifications that have been received since the last call to this method. Returns null if there have been no notifications.

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException

Since:

7.3

getCopyAPI

CopyManager getCopyAPI()
                       throws java.sql.SQLException

This returns the COPY API for the current connection.

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException

Since:

8.4

getLargeObjectAPI

LargeObjectManager getLargeObjectAPI()
                                     throws java.sql.SQLException

This returns the LargeObject API for the current connection.

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException

Since:

7.3

getFastpathAPI

Fastpath getFastpathAPI()
                        throws java.sql.SQLException

This returns the Fastpath API for the current connection.

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException

Since:

7.3

addDataType

void addDataType(java.lang.String type,
               java.lang.String name)

Deprecated. As of 8.0, replaced by addDataType(String,Class). This deprecated method does not work correctly for registering classes that cannot be directly loaded by the JDBC driver's classloader.

This allows client code to add a handler for one of org.postgresql's more unique data types. It is approximately equivalent to addDataType(type, Class.forName(name)).

Throws:

java.lang.RuntimeException - if the type cannot be registered (class not found, etc).

addDataType

void addDataType(java.lang.String type,
               java.lang.Class klass)
                 throws java.sql.SQLException

This allows client code to add a handler for one of org.postgresql's more unique data types.

NOTE: This is not part of JDBC, but an extension.

The best way to use this is as follows:

 ...
 ((org.postgresql.PGConnection)myconn).addDataType("mytype", my.class.name.class);
 ...
 

where myconn is an open Connection to org.postgresql.

The handling class must extend org.postgresql.util.PGobject

Parameters:

type - the PostgreSQL type to register

klass - the class implementing the Java representation of the type; this class must implement PGobject).

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException - if klass does not implement PGobject).

Since:

8.0

PGobject

setPrepareThreshold

void setPrepareThreshold(int threshold)

Set the default statement reuse threshold before enabling server-side prepare. See PGStatement.setPrepareThreshold(int) for details.

Parameters:

threshold - the new threshold

Since:

build 302

getPrepareThreshold

int getPrepareThreshold()

Get the default server-side prepare reuse threshold for statements created from this connection.

Returns:

the current threshold

Since:

build 302

getBackendPID

int getBackendPID()

Return the process ID (PID) of the backend server process handling this connection.

Returns:

PID of backned server process.
