Passing a user-defined table type to a SQL Server stored procedure using JDBC

Question

We\'ve got this User-Defined-Table Type in SQL Server:

CREATE TYPE [dbo].[INITVALS_MSG] AS TABLE(
    [SDate] [decimal](8, 0) NOT NULL,
    [EDate] [decimal]         


        

Answer 1

Yes, it is now possible. Version 6.0 of Microsoft's JDBC driver for SQL Server added support for table-valued parameters.

The following code sample shows how to

• use a SQLServerDataTable object to hold the table data to be passed, and
• call the SQLServerCallableStatement#setStructured method to pass that table to the stored procedure.

SQLServerDataTable sourceDataTable = new SQLServerDataTable();   
sourceDataTable.addColumnMetadata("SDate", java.sql.Types.DECIMAL);
sourceDataTable.addColumnMetadata("EDate", java.sql.Types.DECIMAL);
sourceDataTable.addColumnMetadata("PlantCode", java.sql.Types.NVARCHAR);
sourceDataTable.addColumnMetadata("LoadType", java.sql.Types.NCHAR);
sourceDataTable.addColumnMetadata("Asset", java.sql.Types.BIGINT);

// sample data
sourceDataTable.addRow(123, 234, "Plant1", "Type1", 123234);   
sourceDataTable.addRow(456, 789, "Plant2", "Type2", 456789);   

try (CallableStatement cs = conn.prepareCall("{CALL dbo.RegisterInitAssets (?)}")) {
    ((SQLServerCallableStatement) cs).setStructured(1, "dbo.INITVALS_MSG", sourceDataTable);
    boolean resultSetReturned = cs.execute();
    if (resultSetReturned) {
        try (ResultSet rs = cs.getResultSet()) {
            rs.next();
            System.out.println(rs.getInt(1));
        }
    }
}
