MySql LOCALTIME Example using Java Servlet

In this section we will discuss how can mysql LOCALTIME be used with java servlet.

MySql LOCALTIME gives the current date and time of a system in the format 'yyyy-mm-dd' and 'hh:mm:ss respectively or in the yyyymmddhhmmss.uuuuuu format depends upon whether the function returns string or numeric. LOCALTIME(), CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP() etc functions are as similar to the LOCALTIME. Now, since I have to use this function in java servlet program, therefore I have created a java servlet class named MysqlLocaltimeServlet which extends the HttpServlet class. In the body of class I overridden the method doGet() and created an objects of HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse into its parameter. Inside the doGet() method first I set the mime type that in which format the browser will show the output. In the next line I used the getWriter() method of ServletResponse interface with the object of HttpServletResponse. HttpServletResponse interface extends this method from the ServletResponse. In continue we have to make a connection between java code and database system. So, since I am using Mysql in the example given below therefore, I am loading the driver of mysql and make a connection by using the getConnection() method of DriverManager class. It returns a Connection. Further I am passing the query "SELECT LOCALTIME" (This query will return the current date and time of system) into the parameter of prepareStatement() method of Connection interface which gives an object of PreparedStatement interface. In the next line I used the executeQuery() method of PreparedStatement interface which returns a ResultSet object that holds the result of query. At last I have extracted the result from the ResultSet object.

Example :

MysqlLocaltimeServlet.java

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.PreparedStatement;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;

public class MysqlLocaltimeServlet extends HttpServlet
{
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
	throws IOException, ServletException
	{
		res.setContentType("text/html");
		PrintWriter pw = res.getWriter();
		String driver = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";
		String url = "jdbc:mysql://192.168.10.13/data";
		String uid = "root";
		String psw = "root";
		String sql = "SELECT localtime()";
		Connection con;
		PreparedStatement ps;
		ResultSet rs;
		try
		{
			Class.forName(driver);
			con = DriverManager.getConnection(url, uid, psw);
			ps = con.prepareStatement(sql);
			rs = ps.executeQuery();
			
			pw.println("<table><tr>");
			pw.println("<td><b>localtime()</b></td>");
			pw.println("</tr>");
			while(rs.next())
			{
				String localtime = rs.getString(1);
				pw.println("<tr><td>"+localtime+"</td></tr>");
			}
			pw.println("</table>");
		}
		catch(SQLException sx)
		{
			pw.println(sx);
		}
		catch(ClassNotFoundException cx)
		{
			pw.println(cx);
		}
	}
}
