Can we have an example of using update, insert, and delete stored procedure

Question

I would like to see an example of using retrieve (return resultset), update, insert, and delete stored procedures in JSF. I need to see syntax how JSF can call those stored procedures. This option is absolutely important when building web-application. Currently, I haven't found resource to do for this purpose yet. The database can be any such Oracle, DB2, pointbase, etc that support stored procedures.
Anyone knows?
Thanks,
Tue Vu

Hi ttv,
I asked around a bit and here's some more info:
To bind a ResultSet to a read only Data Table component just set the "value" property of the Data Table component to point at it, and JSF will synthesize a DataModel around it.
* Note that because we can't call the stored procedure at design time, Creator can't do the fancy table layout stuff it does for rowsets. You'll need to hand craft the columns just like the Google Client example.
* As I mentioned previously, you will have to manually code the stored procedure access in your java code - see the code clip I mentioned in previous reply (and if this is via a stored procedure, then any textbook about JDBC will undoubtedly have examples). Simplest way might be a getter method on the page bean that contains the call to the stored procedure and returns the resulting ResultSet object.
* Don't forget to close the result set - we typically do this at the end of the request (i.e. add a close in the afterRenderResponse() method.
* Don't throw exceptions - or if you have to, make sure you close the result set in a finally clause (thrown exceptions bypass the afterRenderResponse method in the lifecycle).
* You give up on the caching provided by our RowSetDataModel (which can't be connected to a ResultSet even manually), so I would recommend that you only use datatables to display the data and then go to a single row page to do edits/deletes (similar to the TwoPage example in AppModel and the Update, Insert Delete tutorial).
And yes please do submit an example - we will gladly post it!!! :) The best way to submit this kind of thing would be through:
