Question

I’m working on a Java GUI project; in one of its property screen I use 3 comboboxes in order to get: first user chooses DB name, with this value 2.Schema names and with this all table names under that schema. It’s OK when I use ResultSet when getting the values from DB and setting them. But with this way, I could only bring ONE value because you know the way ResultSet works. So is there any other way that I could fetch all the table names with let’s say:

SELECT TABLE_NAME FROM ALL_TABLES; and put them on an array of Strings or sth… Anything possible, I just wanna have their names in a list or anything.

Thank you.

EDIT:

Here’s the simple code tested for the purpose:

ResultSet rs = null;
PreparedStatement ps = null;
String result;
ps = conn.prepareStatement("SELECT TABLE_NAME FROM ALL_TABLES");

rs = ps.executeQuery(); 

while(rs.next())
{
        result = rs.getString(1);
    System.out.println(rs.getString(1));
}

Not sure what you mean by ‘you know the way resultset works’?! This will return all the rows from the query:

while (rs.next()) {
    System.out.print("Column 1 returned ");
    System.out.println(rs.getString(1));
}
