Interface Activation

All Superinterfaces:
Dependable, Dependent
All Known Subinterfaces:
CursorActivation
All Known Implementing Classes:
BaseActivation, ConstantActionActivation, CursorActivation, GenericActivationHolder

public interface Activation extends Dependent
An activation contains all the local state information necessary to execute a re-entrant PreparedStatement. The way it will actually work is that a PreparedStatement will have an executable plan, which will be a generated class. All of the local state will be variables in the class. Creating a new instance of the executable plan will create the local state variables. This means that an executable plan must implement this interface, and that the PreparedStatement.getActivation() method will do a "new" operation on the executable plan.

The fixed implementations of Activation in the Execution impl package are used as skeletons for the classes generated for statements when they are compiled.

There are no fixed implementations of Activation for statements; a statement has an activation generated for it when it is compiled.

  • Method Details

    • reset

      void reset() throws StandardException
      Resets the activation to the "pre-execution" state - that is, the state where it can be used to begin a new execution. Frees local buffers, stops scans, resets counters to zero, sets current date and time to an unitialized state, etc.
      Throws:
      StandardException - thrown on failure
    • setCursorName

      void setCursorName(String cursorName)
      JDBC requires that all select statements be converted into cursors, and that the cursor name be settable for each execution of a select statement. The Language Module will support this, so that the JDBC driver will not have to parse JSQL text. This method will have no effect when called on non-select statements.

      There will be a JSQL statement to disable the "cursorization" of all select statements. For non-cursorized select statements, this method will have no effect.

      This has no effect if the activation has been closed.

      Parameters:
      cursorName - The cursor name to use.
    • checkIfThisActivationHasHoldCursor

      boolean checkIfThisActivationHasHoldCursor(String tableName)
      Temporary tables can be declared with ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS. But if the table has a held curosr open at commit time, data should not be deleted from the table. This method, (gets called at commit time) checks if this activation held cursor and if so, does that cursor reference the passed temp table name.
      Returns:
      true if this activation has held cursor and if it references the passed temp table name
    • getParameterValueSet

      ParameterValueSet getParameterValueSet()
      Gets the ParameterValueSet for this execution of the statement.
      Returns:
      The ParameterValueSet for this execution of the statement. Returns NULL if there are no parameters.
    • setParameters

      void setParameters(ParameterValueSet parameterValues, DataTypeDescriptor[] parameterTypes) throws StandardException
      Sets the parameter values for this execution of the statement.

      Has no effect if the activation has been closed.

      NOTE: The setParameters() method is currently unimplemented. A statement with parameters will generate its own ParameterValueSet, which can be gotten with the getParameterValueSet() method (above). The idea behind setParameters() is to improve performance when operating across a network by allowing all the parameters to be set in one call, as opposed to one call per parameter.

      Parameters:
      parameterValues - The values of the parameters.
      Throws:
      StandardException
    • execute

      ResultSet execute() throws StandardException
      When the prepared statement is executed, it passes execution on to the activation execution was requested for.
      Returns:
      the ResultSet for further manipulation, if any.
      Throws:
      StandardException - Thrown on failure
    • close

      void close() throws StandardException
      Closing an activation statement marks it as unusable. Any other requests made on it will fail. An activation should be marked closed when it is expected to not be used any longer, i.e. when the connection for it is closed, or it has suffered some sort of severe error. This will also close its result set and release any resources it holds e.g. for parameters.

      Any class that implements this must be prepared to be executed from garbage collection, ie. there is no matching context stack.

      Throws:
      StandardException - Thrown on failure
    • isClosed

      boolean isClosed()
      Find out if the activation is closed or not.
      Returns:
      true if the Activation has been closed.
    • setSingleExecution

      void setSingleExecution()
      Set this Activation for a single execution. E.g. a java.sql.Statement execution.
    • isSingleExecution

      boolean isSingleExecution()
      Returns true if this Activation is only going to be used for one execution.
    • getWarnings

      SQLWarning getWarnings()
      Returns the chained list of warnings. Returns null if there are no warnings.
    • addWarning

      void addWarning(SQLWarning w)
      Add a warning to the activation
    • clearWarnings

      void clearWarnings()

      Returns:
      the current ResultSet of this activation.
    • setCurrentRow

      void setCurrentRow(ExecRow currentRow, int resultSetNumber)
      Generated plans have a current row field for ease in defining the methods and finding them dynamically. The interface is used to set the row before a dynamic method that uses it is invoked.

      When all processing on the currentRow has been completed, callers should call activation.clearCurrentRow(resultSetNumber) to ensure that no unnecessary references are retained to rows. This will allow the rows no longer in use to be collected by the garbage collecter.

      Parameters:
      currentRow - The row to be operated upon.
      resultSetNumber - The resultSetNumber for the current ResultSet
    • getCurrentRow

      Row getCurrentRow(int resultSetNumber)
      Get the current row at the given index.
    • clearCurrentRow

      void clearCurrentRow(int resultSetNumber)
      Generated plans have a current row field for ease in defining the methods and finding them dynamically. The interface is used to set the row before a dynamic method that uses it is invoked.

      When all processing on the currentRow has been completed, callers should call activation.clearCurrentRow(resultSetNumber) to ensure that no unnecessary references are retained to rows. This will allow the rows no longer in use to be collected by the garbage collecter.

      Parameters:
      resultSetNumber - The resultSetNumber for the current ResultSet
    • getPreparedStatement

      ExecPreparedStatement getPreparedStatement()

      Returns:
      int The number of subqueries in the entire query.
    • getCursorName

      String getCursorName()
      Return the cursor name of this activation. This will differ from its ResultSet's cursor name if it has been altered with setCursorName. Thus this always returns the cursor name of the next execution of this activation. The cursor name of the current execution must be obtained from the ResultSet. or this.getResultSet.getCursorName() [with null checking].

      Statements that do not support cursors will return a null.

      Returns:
      The cursor name.

The specific columns for auto-generated keys resultset can be requested by passing column positions array The specific columns for auto-generated keys resultset can be requested by passing column names array Both the parameters would be null if user didn't request specific keys.

      columnNames - Request specific columns in auto-generated keys resultset by passing column names. null means no specific columns requested by position

    • informOfRowCount

      void informOfRowCount(NoPutResultSet resultSet, long rowCount) throws StandardException
      Tell this activation that the given ResultSet was found to have the given number of rows. This is used during execution to determine whether a table has grown or shrunk. If a table's size changes significantly, the activation may invalidate its PreparedStatement to force recompilation. Note that the association of row counts with ResultSets is kept in the activation class, not in the activation itself. This means that this method must be synchronized. This method is not required to check the number of rows on each call. Because of synchronization, this check is likely to be expensive, so it may only check every hundred calls or so.
      Throws:
      StandardException - Thrown on error
