SQLite JDBC
Author: Cyberical Views: 323 Posted On: Apr 27, 2009

JDBC driver for SQLite. It comes in two flavours, a 100% Pure Java driver based on NestedVM or a native JNI library. The pure java driver is compatible, you can follow the Java dream and use it anywhere with no worries. The native driver is fast, and I recommend it wherever possible. Binaries are provided for Windows and Mac OS X.

 

import java.sql.*;
 
public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        Class.forName("org.sqlite.JDBC");
        Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:sqlite:test.db");
        Statement stat = conn.createStatement();
        stat.executeUpdate("drop table if exists people;");
        stat.executeUpdate("create table people (name, occupation);");
        PreparedStatement prep = conn.prepareStatement(
            "insert into people values (?, ?);");
 
        prep.setString(1, "Gandhi");
        prep.setString(2, "politics");
        prep.addBatch();
        prep.setString(1, "Turing");
        prep.setString(2, "computers");
        prep.addBatch();
        prep.setString(1, "Wittgenstein");
        prep.setString(2, "smartypants");
        prep.addBatch();
 
        conn.setAutoCommit(false);
        prep.executeBatch();
        conn.setAutoCommit(true);
 
        ResultSet rs = stat.executeQuery("select * from people;");
        while (rs.next()) {
            System.out.println("name = " + rs.getString("name"));
            System.out.println("job = " + rs.getString("occupation"));
        }
        rs.close();
        conn.close();
    }
} 

Run with:

java -cp .:sqlitejdbc-v044-native.jar -Djava.library.path=. Test
