Why does JDBC keep connections open even though I close the resultsets?

I attached my program and my output. Please bear with me for the long output. My question here is why do the connections remain even though I closed the resultsets. I need to reuse my prepared statements, but don't want to keep the oracle sessions open. Is this possible? What do I need to do?
If you notice in the program, I have executed the query to find the number of open sessions 5 times.
1) After creating the connections
2) After creating the prepared statements
3) After executing them
4) After getString on the resultSets
5) After closing the resultsets.
And the sessions are still there even is Step 5 :-(

Why do the connections stay open? Because you haven't closed them.
You answered your own question: obviously closing the ResultSet is NOT the same thing as closing the connection.
When you do a query, you want to get the connection, statement, and result set, load the data from the result set into an object or data structure, and then immediately close them all again in reverse order of creation. You want to keep the scope as narrow as possible. You want to use a connection pool to keep the cost of obtaining a connection down. You should leave caching of the PreparedStatements to the JDBC driver.

  • Why does Thunderbird stop responding when I attempt to close the programme?

    Thunderbird stops responding whenever I attempt to close the program. If I click on the 'X' top right or rt-select >close window, from the task bar the Thunderbird window either turns white and freezes and reports that it is not responding. Then Microsoft asks if I want to wait or close the program. I have tried waiting but there's only so many hours in a day!
    I have also been having problems lately with loads of emails that should be, and previously were junk appearing in my in box; a load of salicious emails. I thought the problem was with the trash folder but I deleted the trash folders and tried to install a new trash folder as a sub-folder of my inbox but the small install window froze as did the main Thunderbird window. Now I no longer have a trash folder and after several reboots Thunderbird continues to freeze and does not respond.
    I removed both Google Chrome and Thunderbird and re-installed them without any apparent result. I have shut down all extensions. And would appreciate your help in getting Thunderbird up and running again.

  • Why does my laptop turn itself off when i close the lid?

    i have a HP pavillion dv4 notebook. sometimes when i close the lid and let it go to sleep, and then come back to use it, the computer is off. i get a weird DOS-like black screen with white text when it comes back on asking me if i want to start windows as normal or something like this. has anyone encountered this? does anyone know how to fix it?

    Try resetting the iPod.  Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    You can also try another cable and usb port.

  • Why does Firefox keep on opening new tabs when I log in to my Facebook account? It only stops when I cancel 4 or 5 tabs already opened.

    I just opened my Facebook account today. It happened again i.e. several window tabs opened showing the same first page of my opened Facebook account. This is very annoying.

  • Why does EchoSign receive blank document, even though I have filled in all fields?

    I have been given a timesheet pdf to fill in.
    It contains the option to send to someone for signing.
    It does not allow me to save the form after I have filled it in.
    I fill in all the fields, then I click Sign, and it says it is uploading the pdf. Then I am taken to Adobe EchoSign in my browser.
    I fill in the email address, but when I click Preview, the form is empty.
    If I go ahead and send it anyway, a blank form is sent to the recipient.
    None of the data I entered has been saved.
    Am I doing something wrong?

    Hi
    I have Adobe Reader X, version 10.1.12.
    Cheers

  • Firefox 9.0 keeps downloading automatically, even though I unchecked the automatic update box. I don't want 9.0. How do I stop this?

    I cannot use FF 9.0 on my work computer--it cannot connect to any site. FF 8.0 works great, and I want to keep it. But no matter how many times I uninstall 9.0 and re-install 8.0--UNchecking the box for automatic updated--9.0 keeps re-installing automatically after a day or two. How do I stop this?

    Sorry, Swanarva, It didn't work as it was supposed to. I downloaded, saved file, clicked the download to open, clicked 'run' then got an error message that it couldn't find the file(!) . No idea what happened or why. Should I have uninstalled Firefox first, then downloaded Firefox 8 using another browser or downloaded, uninstalled Firefox 09 beta then tried installing Firefox 8?
    At this rate, IE is looking good, despite its shortcomings.

  • Why is my device not supported even though it meets the minimum requirements?

    My phone is kind of old and Firefox doesn't show up in the Google Play Store, BUT...
    I have sideloaded fennec on my phone and it works fine. I've been using it for two months now. I have had a look at the minimum requirements and even at the apk, but couldn't figure out, what is keeping me from installing ¨the official way¨.
    So what's the reason, that I can't install firefox via the Play Store? This would make updating much easier.
    Thanks in advance!
    Device: HTC Desire (bravo)
    Screen Size: 480x800
    RAM: 576 MB
    Internal Storage: ~150 MB
    Android Version: 2.3.7 (Note: It's a custom rom.)
    processor: ARMv7

    We block the HTC Desire on the Play Store due to poor performance on the device. If you would like to use Firefox anyways you can install the Aurora update channel of Firefox from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/channel/#aurora

  • Why does Adobe keep releasing updates for Acrobat that make the PDF print option diasappear?

    I am really disappointed that after installing an update to  Acrobat 9 my PDF printer has disappeared from my printer list.
    This is the second time this has happened. The last time this happened Adobe were still supporting Acrobat 9 and they ended up having to remote in to my machine to fix it.
    Now I have to pay if i want that level of support!!! It begs the question why they release these destructive updates. Is it to force people to upgrade to X or purchase support. 
    Can anybody give me some instructions on how to manually install the PDF printer?
    I am running windows 7

    Launch the Devices and printers setup utility through the Control Panel.
    2Select the \"Add a Printer\" option.
    3Click the \"Next\" button and select the \"Local Printer Attached to This Computer\" option.
    4Deselect (uncheck the box) the  \"Automatically Detect and Install My Plug and Play Printer\" option and  click the \"Next\" button.
    5Select \"My Documents\\*.pdf (Adobe PDF)\" in the port selection drop-down menu and click the \"Next\" button.
    6Select the \"Have Disk\" option and click the \"Browse\" button to open a dialog box.
    7Select the \"AdobePDF.inf\" file  located in the AdobePDF folder in your Program Files directory under  \"Adobe,\" \"Acrobat 9.0,\" \"Acrobat,\" \"Xtras.\"
    8Select the first item (top item) on the list of Adobe PDF Converter options and click the \"Next\" button.
    9Type \"Adobe PDF\" in the field for a printer name and click \"Next.\"

  • Mozilla does not remember ldap password, even though I check the "remember" checkbox.

    Every time I enter an email address, Mozilla pops up the "LDAP Server Password Required". I enter the password and check the "Use password manager to remember this password". Then the message pops up again. I enter the info again. Then it accesses the LDAP server. But next time I type in an email address, it hasn't remembered the password.
    Thanks, Vilis

    It could be the password files are corrupted and not accepting changes, so I would delete (or move to a safe location) these files from the profile folder: keys.db, signons.sqlite, signons#.txt. Select Help/Troubleshooting Information, click Show Folder to open the profile folder, exit TB, and delete or move the files.
    You can record any stored passwords before doing this by opening Tools(or AppMenu/Options)/Options/Security/Passwords/Saved Passwords, as deleting the password files from the profile will erase all stored passwords.

  • Why does this keep popping up A problem has caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.

    I believe that it is the new update but i want to know how to solve my problem.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    If you've already tried a complete uninstall and reinstall try opening iTunes in safe mode (hold down CTRL+SHIFT) as you start iTunes, then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. You may find iTunes will now start normally.

  • Iphone 4 shows keep showing 3G even though i turn off the 3G option

    Hey everyone... need some help and direction here...
         it bothers me a lot, for several times my iphone 4 keep showing 3G even though i turn the 3G option off. This always happen especially when am home, first it looks normal, it shows edge but after several minutes it changes to 3G again and again. i noticed that this thing happened since i upgrade to iOS 5.
         is there anyone here that experiencing the same problem? because i've tried to restore it three times, but nothing changed... thank you for any comments and help..

    Siri does not exist on the iPhone 4, only the iPhone 4S and later have Siri.
    I used the Chat feature in the Contact Us section of the Apple website to try and get some support direct from Apple.
    I discussed the lack of menu options, and provided screenshots. The response came back that it was, and I quote, "super strange" for this to be happening. Yet there are plenty of people reporting this problem on this forum.
    The support person took me through a hard reboot (power button + home button until it restarts). That did not work, and I was then advised to back up the iPhone with iTunes, and then do a restore.
    I did this, it downloaded about 1.2GB of data which I presume was a full, new image of iOS 7.1 (as opposed to the 'upgrade' that had been applied before), and proceeded to load it onto the device.
    The issue still persists, attached are screenshots of my Settings > Passcode menu.

  • Ever since I upgraded to IOS 7 on my iPad, it does not remember my passwords, even though I check "keep me signed on".  Is there a setting somewhere that I am missing?  I did not have this issue with the previous OS.  Thank you.

    Thank you, James, but I do have a WiFi connection on the iPad mini. The Numbers files update on my iPad third generation and iPhone just fine when connected to the same network.
    Do you have any other suggestions?
    Thank you!

  • Why does iTunes no longer open automatically when iPad is connected?

    Why does iTunes no longer open automatically when iPad is connected? and iPhone as well?  Setting to "auto open" is selected, but iTunes will not open automatically. Problem seems to have begun with upgrade to Lion.

    Good luck getting an answer...I posted the same question a day ago.   I can only assume it's a glitch in iTunes 10.5.

  • Why does iTunes keep giving me bogus error messages.  "Your internet connection is not working, check your connection and try again."  My internet is working fine.  iTunes is not working and will not allow me to download tunes.
