MySql SELECT BETWEEN Query using Java servlet
In this section we will discuss how can we find the records in a database table using BETWEEN operator in mysql using java servlet.
BETWEEN operator select the range of records between two values. This operator is used with ' where ' clause. This operator acts as a displaying of elements i.e. when you will use this operator with the ' select from where ' query it will display all the records including the both start and end value, which will specified by you, if available. Now, since I have to use the this operator query in java servlet program, therefore I have created a java servlet class named MysqlBetweenOperatorServlet 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 two query 1. "SELECT * FROM employee" (This query will display all the elements of table 'employee' 2. "SELECT * FROM employee WHERE Id BETWEEN 1 AND 5 ", (This query will display all the records between 1 and 5 including both the Ids 1 & 5 of table 'employee' ) 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 :
MysqlBetweenOperatorServlet.java
