Treating an SQL ResultSet like a Scala Stream

Question

When I query a database and receive a (forward-only, read-only) ResultSet back, the ResultSet acts like a list of database rows.

I am trying to find some way to trea

Answer 1

i needed something similar. Building on elbowich's very cool answer, I wrapped it a bit, and instead of the string, I return the result (so you can get any column)

def resultSetItr(resultSet: ResultSet): Stream[ResultSet] = {
    new Iterator[ResultSet] {
      def hasNext = resultSet.next()
      def next() = resultSet
    }.toStream
  }

I needed to access table metadata, but this will work for table rows (could do a stmt.executeQuery(sql) instead of md.getColumns):

 val md = connection.getMetaData()
 val columnItr = resultSetItr( md.getColumns(null, null, "MyTable", null))
      val columns = columnItr.map(col => {
        val columnType = col.getString("TYPE_NAME")
        val columnName = col.getString("COLUMN_NAME")
        val columnSize = col.getString("COLUMN_SIZE")
        new Column(columnName, columnType, columnSize.toInt, false)
      })
