CallableStatement

Synopsis

The CallableStatement interface allows programs to access SQL stored procedures within the database. You create a CallableStatement with the prepareCall() method of Connection. Question mark characters (?) are used as placeholders for input and output values in the syntax used to call stored procedures:

{? = call procedure_name[(?[,?...])]}{call procedure_name[(?[,?...])]}

Parameters are numbered sequentially starting from 1. Input parameters are set with the same setXXX() methods as in a PreparedStatement. Output parameters must be registered using the registerOutParameter() methods, and may be retrieved after the statement executes using the getXXX() methods, which are identical to those in ResultSet. To execute a statement, you call execute(), which is inherited from PreparedStatement.
