How to create a table in JDBC using another table?
You can create a table same as an existing table using the following syntax:
CREATE TABLE new_table as SELECT * from old_table;
Assume we have a table named dispatches with 5 records as shown below:
+-------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+-------+----------------+ | ProductName | CustomerName | DispatchDate | DeliveryTime | Price | Location | +-------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+-------+----------------+ | Key-Board | Raja | 2019-09-01 | 05:30:00 | 7000 | Hyderabad | | Earphones | Roja | 2019-05-01 | 05:30:00 | 2000 | Vishakhapatnam | | Mouse | Puja | 2019-03-01 | 05:29:59 | 3000 | Vijayawada | | Mobile | Vanaja | 2019-03-01 | 04:40:52 | 9000 | Chennai | | Headset | Jalaja | 2019-04-06 | 18:38:59 | 6000 | Goa | +-------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+-------+----------------+
Following JDBC program establishes connection with a database and create a new table using the definition of an existing table.
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.sql.Statement;
public class CreateTable {
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception{
//Registering the Driver
DriverManager.registerDriver(new com.mysql.jdbc.Driver());
//Getting the connection
String mysqlUrl = "jdbc:mysql://localhost/mydatabase";
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(mysqlUrl, "root", "password");
System.out.println("Connection established......");
//Creating the Statement object
Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
//Query to create a table
String query = "CREATE TABLE Sales as SELECT * from dispatches";
//Executing the query
stmt.execute(query);
System.out.println("Table created......");
}
}Output
Connection established...... Table created......
If you verify the contents of the Sales table you can observe that is created same as dispatches table.
