Question

Is it possible to call a stored procedure from my Java code and then continue the normal flow/execution of my program, wth the procedure running in the background? Can I just trigger the procedure such that it goes on running in the background (can take 15-20 min) ?

Can we implement it using threads? If yes, how to go about it?

Answer 1

How about this:

public class HelloThread extends Thread {

    public void run() {
        //call proc here
    }

    public static void main(String args[]) {
        (new HelloThread()).start();
    }

}

Taken from here.
