Mysql MAKEDATE() Function Example Using Java Servlet

In this section you will learn how to use mysql makedate() function in java servlet.

MAKEDATE() function of mysql creates a date by taking the year and number of days of a year. The value of a number of days must not be 0 otherwise it will return 'null'.

Syntax :

makedate(year, no_of_days)

Here the arguments year and no_of_days should be in numeric.

Now, since I have to use this function in java servlet program, therefore I have created a java servlet class named MysqlMakedateFunctionServlet 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 MAKEDATE(2011,222) as Date_Is" (This query will return the output as  2011-08-10 ) 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 :

MysqlMakedateFunctionServlet.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 MysqlMakedateFunctionServlet extends HttpServlet
{
 public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
  throws IOException, ServletException
  {
   res.setContentType("text/html");
   PrintWriter pw = res.getWriter();
   String className = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";
   String url = "jdbc:mysql://192.168.10.13/data";
   String user = "root";
   String password = "root";
   String sql = "SELECT MAKEDATE(2011,222) as Date_Is";
   Connection con;
   PreparedStatement ps;
   ResultSet rs;
   
   try
   {
	Class.forName(className);
	con = DriverManager.getConnection(url, user, password);
	ps = con.prepareStatement(sql);
	rs = ps.executeQuery();
	
	pw.println("<table>");
	pw.println("<tr>");
	pw.println("<td><b>Date_Is</b></td>");
	pw.println("</tr>");
	while(rs.next())
	{
		String date = rs.getString(1);
		pw.println("<tr>");
		pw.println("<td>"+date+"</td>");
		pw.println("</tr>");
	}
	pw.println("</table>");
	}
    catch(SQLException sx)
    {
      pw.println(sx);
    }
    catch(ClassNotFoundException cx)
    {
      pw.println(cx);
    }
  }
}
