Question

I have csv file and i want to import that data to oracle database.
but before that i want it to check whether table ‘xyz’ exist in database or not.

I want to do it through java .. anyone knows how to do it through java ?

Answer 1

Wikipedia has some good info on getting at oracle metadata.

 SELECT
 COUNT(1)
 FROM
 ALL_TABLES
 WHERE
 TABLE_NAME = 'NAME_OF_TABLE'

Replace NAME_OF_TABLE with the name of your table and if you get a result of 1, you have your table.
