Result Sets
You can use ResultSetMetaData to retrieve metadata about the results of a query.
The query can contain any of the following:
- Aliases
- Fully qualified names
- Generated columns
You can instantiate a ResultSetMetaData object by invoking the getMetaData method of the Statement class. A ResultSetMetaData instance is populated with data after the statement has been executed. The following query prints out the columns in the result of the query:
String connectionString = "jdbc:JiraAssets:User=MyUser;APIToken=myApiToken;Url=https://yoursitename.atlassian.net"; Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(connectionString); PreparedStatement pstmt = conn.prepareStatement("SELECT Id, Name AS My_Name, GETDATE() FROM Objects WHERE Column2 = 'Bob'"); pstmt.executeQuery(); ResultSetMetaData rs = pstmt.getMetaData(); for(int i=1;i<=rs.getColumnCount();i++) { System.out.println(rs.getColumnName(i)); }
