JDBCReaderPattern

This pattern is used to retrieve data from a database using a Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) connection.

Support classes

1. CursorHoldableJDBCReader

   This class is referenced when the usage pattern of your JDBC input stream retrieves a set of results at the beginning of the step, and then iterates over them throughout the step-processing logic. The CursorHoldableJDBCReader uses a stateful session bean with a cursor holdable, non-XA data source. A cursor holdable JDBCReader is a pattern that is implemented in such a way that the cursor is not lost when the transaction is committed. As a result, ResultSets do not need to be repopulated after every checkpoint, which improves performance.

   To use CursorHoldableJDBCReader, package the CursorHoldableSessionBean in the application.

   To create the package, add the nonxadsjndiname=jndi_name_of_a_non-XA_data_source_to_database property to the properties file used by the BatchPackager. For example, nonxadsjndiname=jdbc/nonxads. To add multiple non-XA data sources enter the following: nonxadsjndiname= <jndi name1>; <jndi name2>...

   Restriction: Currently, the resource reference name of the JDBC data source is the same as the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) name.

2. JDBCReader

   This class is referenced when the usage pattern of your JDBC input stream retrieves a single result from a query, which is used and discarded after every iteration of the step.

3. LocalJDBCReader

   This class is referenced when data is read from a local database.
