Question

And here is my rest code

@Path("Users")
public class ItemsResource extends stu{

  @Context
  private UriInfo context;

  /**
   * Creates a new instance of ItemsResource
   */
  public ItemsResource() {
  }

  /**
   * Retrieves representation of an instance of service.ItemsResource
   * @return an instance of java.lang.String
   */
  @GET
  @Produces("text/plain")
  public String getText() {
      //TODO return proper representation object
      throw new UnsupportedOperationException();
  }

  /**
   * POST method for creating an instance of ItemResource
   * @param content representation for the new resource
   * @return an HTTP response with content of the created resource
   */
   @POST
   @Consumes("text/plain")
   @Produces("text/plain")
   public Response postText(@PathParam("id") int id,@PathParam("Password") String Password,
                        @PathParam("Username") String Username) {
    //TODO

       super.createText(id,Password,Username);
       return Response.created(context.getAbsolutePath()).build();
      // return "success";
   }
  /**
   * Sub-resource locator method for {id}
   */   
}

here is stu.java

class stu {

     public String createText(int id,String Username,String Password) {
        //TODO
       try 
       {
          Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
          Connection con=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/users","root","789456");

          String query=  "Insert into users (id,username,password) values('"+id+"','"+Username+"','"+Password+"')";
          PreparedStatement stm = con.prepareStatement(query);         

          stm.executeUpdate(query);
        } catch(ClassNotFoundException e){
           System.err.println ("Sql Exception"+e);
        } catch(SQLException e){
           System.err.println ("Sql Exception"+e);
        }

    return "success";
  } 
}

And it is able to contact my database and a new row is created in table but with null,null,null values. Kindly help me out in this.

Answer 1

I think the data is not “successfully posted”. You use the @PathParam annotation when you have the parameters in your @Path, like @Path("Users/{id}").

How are you sending the parameters? If you send them with a browser and a POST <form>, try to use the @FormParam annotation. See this question for more information.
