  1. Java, JDBC, Perl, CGIEmbedded SQL November 3rd, 2000

  2. What will we cover ? • Assignment 4 – Java and JDBC • Course project – HTML, PERL, CGI, Embedded SQL in Perl

  3. How to run a query ? • Running a query: • Query Analyzer (assignment 3) • Any application (assignment 4) • Web application (project)

  4. Modern 3-tier architecture • Web server, application, database Internet FORMS Web Server CGI Application ODBC Database Server

  5. Application ? • What is it ? • Software that formally separates and coordinates: • Data sitting in the database • Application logic • Web accesses • What it does ? • Connects either a web server or users to the database.

  6. Why do we need applications ? • Easier to develop and maintain • We can reuse components for and application services: • Caching, encryption, managing database connections • Multiple databases • Security

  7. Back to Assignment 4 • This is NOT a programming course. • Tutorial on the web – straightforward • Steps: • Add an ODBC connection on your machine • Create a new Java Application (Console Application) • Download the example code provided

  8. JDBC/ODBC • Standardized network database APIs • Connect, submit queries, process results, disconnect • Abstract application from particular database • ODBC from Microsoft, JDBC from Sun • A good driver can make a huge difference • Pre-fetching • Data caching • SQL translation caching • Could spend hours talking about JDBC/ODBC

  9. Key Code Class.forName("com.ms.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver"); java.sql.Connection c = DriverManager.getConnection ("jdbc:odbc:444","cse444","WeRock!"); java.sql.Statement s= c.createStatement(); java.sql.ResultSet rs; rs = s.executeQuery("Select * from movies"); java.sql.ResultSetMetaData md = rs.getMetaData(); while (rs.next()){ area.append("\nTUPLE: |"); for (int i = 1; i <= md.getColumnCount();i++){ area.append(rs.getString(i) + " | "); } } • XML ?

  10. HTML/CGI • How does the Web works ? • Send a request to a server (cubist) • Servers answers back with HTML text • Browser parses text and outputs the page • What if the request involves running an application on the server ? • Client must have a FORM in the HTML file • FORM indicates what action the server must take

  11. FORMS <form ACTION= "http://cubist.cs.washington.edu/ ~tzoompy/444_2.pl" method=POST> <P>Input a last name (try 'Gore'): <INPUT NAME=last_name></P> <P><INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT></p> </form>

  12. Perl • Very successful and popular • Easy for managing data (files or streams) • Also popular for using as the CGI language of choice • Examples: • print “Hello World !\n”; • while, for, if, very standard…. • $lname =~ tr/a-z/A-Z/; • $lname =~ s/Levy/Halevy/;

  13. Key Code #!/usr/bin/perl5 -w use CGI; use DBI; $html = new CGI; print $html->header, "\n", $html->start_html(); &searchDatabase; print $html->end_html; exit(0);

  14. Key Code (2) sub searchDatabase { $sql = "SELECT * FROM Elections2000"; $db = DBI->connect("dbi:Sybase:server=ISQL01", "cse444", "WeRock!"); $db or die "Sorry we couldn't connect!\n"; $sth = $db->prepare($sql); $sth->execute(); while ($row = $sth->fetchrow_hashref()) { $rec1 = $row->{lname}; print "Record = $rec1<p>"; } }

  15. User Input • Check the tutorial and examples available on the web • Once all this is done you are 75% done with project • More help ? • Google (or your favorite engine) • Java ? – I don’t know • Perl ? – Lama and Camel books (O’Reilly) • HTML/CGI ? – Anything, it’s easy anyway

  16. Miscellaneous • Assignment 4: • output – stdout preferred, but anything reasonable • queries – do your own or get solutions • two programs only • code must be reasonable documented • Project • black-box testing (including stress test) • why not Java servlets/ASP/Java/Assembly… • cse security policy, but…
