DB2CachedRowSet

The DB2CachedRowSet object is a disconnected RowSet, meaning that it can be used without being connected to the database. Its implementation adheres closely to the description of a CachedRowSet. The DB2CachedRowSet is a container for rows of data from a ResultSet. The DB2CachedRowSet holds all its own data so it does not need to maintain a connection to the database other than explicitly while reading or writing data to the database.

• Use DB2CachedRowSet
  Because the DB2CachedRowSet object can be disconnected and serialized, it is useful in environments where it is not always practical to run a full JDBC driver (for example, on Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) and Java-enabled cell phones).
• Create and populate a DB2CachedRowSet
  There are several ways to place data into a DB2CachedRowSet.
• Access DB2CachedRowSet data and cursor manipulation
  This topic provides information about accessing DB2CachedRowSet data and various cursor manipulation functions.
• Change DB2CachedRowSet data and reflect changes back to the data source
  This topic provides information about making changes to rows in a DB2CachedRowSet and then updating the underlying database.
• Other DB2CachedRowSet features
  In addition to working like a ResultSet as several examples have shown, the DB2CachedRowSet class has some additional functionality that makes it more flexible to use. Methods are provided for turning either the entire Java™ Database Connectivity (JDBC) RowSet or just a portion of it into a Java™ collection. Moreover, because of their disconnected nature, DB2CachedRowSets do not have a strict one-to-one relationship with ResultSets.
