Q) What is a constructor?




A)
A specialized method of a class is known as constructor. A constructor is not the behavior of the object. Only instance methods of the class are only behavior. A constructor is different from an instance method in the fallowing areas.
1. Name
2. Return type
3. Type of calling
4. Time of calling
5. Frequency of calling
6. Purpose
A constructor is a specialized method of a class whose name and class name is same. And doesn’t have any return type. Not even void.
Ex:
class A
{
     A ()
        {
         }//constructor
}
Note :
If we give return type to the constructor, it will no more be acting as constructor. It becomes a normal method.
Ex:
class a
{
     Void a ()
        {
         }//instance method, not a constructor
}
Additional:
Normal method and class name may have same name. But the difference is the constructor. Does not contain return type, the normal method contain return type.

Q) Retrieving data from database?

A)   ->to retrieve the data from database we need to submit SELECT statement from JDBC application. -> executeQuery() method of statement object is used for this purpose. This method has the fallowing ResultSet executeQuery(String sql) throws SQLException Ex: ResultSet rs = st.executeQuery(“SELECT * FROM ACCOUNT”); ->objectoriented representation of tables formate data is called ResultSet object. Ao the driver created one object i.e. ResultSet object. ->object orientation representation of a table of records returned from db is nothing but “ ResultSet ” object.  

Q) What is the purpose of JDBC?

A) -> Java application can do any task by making a method (function) call. ->java method calls are not understandable to database management system. They can understand only SQL statements. ->SQL statements can’t be directly used in a java application. Java compiler complains. ->therefore, we say that java environment and database environment are heterogeneous to each other. Purpose of JDBC: ->for any kind of java application to communicate with any kind of database (management system) in a standard manner, JDBC is used.
