PreparedStatement IN clause alternatives?

Question

What are the best workarounds for using a SQL IN clause with instances of java.sql.PreparedStatement, which is not supported for multiple values du

Answer 1

Spring allows passing java.util.Lists to NamedParameterJdbcTemplate , which automates the generation of (?, ?, ?, ..., ?), as appropriate for the number of arguments.

For Oracle, this blog posting discusses the use of oracle.sql.ARRAY (Connection.createArrayOf doesn't work with Oracle). For this you have to modify your SQL statement:

SELECT my_column FROM my_table where search_column IN (select COLUMN_VALUE from table(?))

The oracle table function transforms the passed array into a table like value usable in the IN statement.
