Leveraging Lambda for JDBC 4.2

Folks

In order to make it a little easier for migration to the new JDBC releases I am planning to leverage default methods in Lambda. 

For example;

interface Foo {
   boolean hasFoo();

   default long executeLargeUpdate(String sql, int autoGeneratedKeys) throws SQLException {
       throw new SQLFeatureNotSupportedException("setFoo not implemented");
     }

    default  long getLargeUpdateCount() throws SQLException {
       throw new UnsupportedOperationException("getLargeUpdateCount not implemented");
     }
}

public class FooBar implements Foo {


    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        FooBar fb = new FooBar();
        System.out.println("Has a Foo: " + fb.hasFoo());
        try {
            fb.getLargeUpdateCount();
        } catch(Exception e) {
            System.out.println("got: " + e);
        }

        try {
            fb.executeLargeUpdate("hi", 1);
        } catch(Exception e) {
            System.out.println("got: " + e);
        }
    }

     public boolean hasFoo() {
        return true;
     }
}

At runtime;

/ace2_apps/jdk8-ea/bin/java  FooBar
Has a Foo: true
got: java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: getLargeUpdateCount not implemented
got: java.sql.SQLFeatureNotSupportedException: setFoo not implemented



Optional methods will default to throwing a SQLFeatureNotSupportedException

Required methods will default to throwing a UnsupportedOperationException allowing for this to be flagged by the JDBC test suite as a compliance issue


Leveraging Lambda will allow existing code to compile on the new JDK without having to immediately add stubs or implementation.
