Similar question to: Strange problem with JDBC, select returns null but people didn't ask for this.
My code:
public int myMethod(String day) throws SQLException{
String sql = "Select count(*) from MyTable WHERE someColumn = " + day;
Connection connection = ConnFactory.get();
PreparedStatement prepareStatement = null;
ResultSet resultSet = null;
int ret = -1;
try{
prepareStatement = connection.prepareStatement(sql);
resultSet = prepareStatement.executeQuery(sql);
if(resultSet.next()){
ret = resultSet.getInt(1);
}
}
catch(SQLException sqle){
// closing statement & ResultSet, log and throw exception
}
finally{
// closing statement & ResultSet
}
ConnFactory.kill(connection);
return ret;
}
This code always return 0. I try to log sql before execution and try to run it in SQLdeveloper and get correct value (over 100).
When I remove WHERE, sql = "Select count(*) from MyTable
query return number of all rows in table.
I use Oracle 10g with ojdbc-14.jar (last version from maven repo) and Java 6.
