The JSTL XML tags provide a JSP-centric way of creating and manipulating the XML documents. Following is the syntax to include the JSTL XML library in your JSP.The JSTL XML tag library has custom tags for interacting with the XML data. This includes parsing the XML, transforming the XML data, and the flow control based on the XPath expressions.Before you proceed with the examples, you will need to copy the following two XML and XPath related libraries into your \lib −XercesImpl.jar − Download it from https://www.apache.org/dist/xerces/j/xalan.jar − Download it from https://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/index.htmlRead More

Not all the databases support batch processing therefore before proceeding with batch updates in your application. You need to verify whether the database you are trying to communicate supports batch processing/batch updates or not.You can do so using the supportsBatchUpdates() method of the DatabaseMetaData interface.Follow the steps given below:Register the driver class using the registerDriver() method of the DriverManager class. Pass the driver class name to it, as a parameter.Connect to the database using the getConnection() method of the DriverManager class. Passing URL (String), username (String), password (String) as parameters to it.Create a DatabaseMetaData object using the getMetaData() method of ... Read More

The tag is used to group the and tags into transactions. You can put as many and tags as statements inside the tag to create a single transaction.It ensures that the database modifications performed by the nested actions are either committed or rolled back if an exception is thrown by any nested action.AttributeThe tag has the following attributes −AttributeDescriptionRequiredDefaultdataSourceDatabase connection to use (overrides the default)NoDefault databaseisolationTransaction isolation (READ_COMMITTED, READ_UNCOMMITTED, REPEATABLE_READ, or SERIALIZABLE)NoDatabase’s defaultExampleTo start with the basic concept, let us create a Students table in the TEST database and create a few records ...

Grouping related SQL statements into a batch and executing/submitting them at once is known as batch processing. The Statement interface provides methods to perform batch processing such as addBatch(), executeBatch(), clearBatch().Follow the steps given below to perform batch updates using the CallableStatement object:Register the driver class using the registerDriver() method of the DriverManager class. Pass the driver class name to it, as a parameter.Connect to the database using the getConnection() method of the DriverManager class. Passing URL (String), username (String), password (String) as parameters to it.Set the auto-commit to false using setAutoCommit() method of the Connection interface.Create a CallableStatement object ...

Grouping related SQL statements into a batch and executing/submitting them at once is known as batch processing.While executing a set of statements one after other the execution switches from the database to program simultaneously.Using batch processing we can reduce this communication overhead and increase the performance of our Java application.For Example, if we have a table named Emp with the following description:+----------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ | Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra | +----------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ | Name | varchar(255) | YES | ...
