How can resultset records be restricted to certain rows?
Created May 3, 2012
Govind Seshadri The easy answer is "Use a JDBC 2.0 compliant driver".
With a 2.0 driver, you can use the setFetchSize() method within a Statement or a ResultSet object.
For example,
Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
stmt.setFetchSize(400);
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("select * from customers");
will change the default fetch size to 400.
You can also control the direction in which the rows are processed. For instance:
stmt.setFetchDirection(ResultSet.FETCH_REVERSE)will process the rows from bottom up.
The driver manager usually defaults to the most efficient fetch size...so you may try experimenting with different value for optimal performance.
