Chapter 25 Managing Persistent Component State


Supported Java, IDL, and JDBC/SQL types

Table 25-6 lists the Java, IDL, and JDBC/SQL types that EAServer supports for persistent storage using mapped fields. Types on one row are equivalent. The JDBC/SQL column lists the java.sql.Types constants that the storage component uses to bind to the database column. When creating tables, ensure that each column's type is compatible with the JDBC/SQL type that corresponds to the mapped Java field.

Table 25-6: Supported Java, IDL, and JDBC datatypes
Java field type CORBA IDL field type JDBC/SQL column type
boolean boolean TINYINT
char char CHAR
byte octet TINYINT
short short SMALLINT
(N/A) unsigned short SMALLINT
int long INTEGER
(N/A) unsigned long INTEGER
long long long BIGINT
(N/A) unsigned long long BIGINT
float float REAL
double double FLOAT
(N/A) string VARCHAR
(N/A) BCD::Binary VARBINARY
(N/A) BCD::Decimal DECIMAL
(N/A) BCD::Money DECIMAL
(N/A) MJD::Date DATE
(N/A) MJD::Time TIME
(N/A) MJD::Timestamp TIMESTAMP
java.lang.String CtsComponents::StringValue VARCHAR
byte[] CtsComponents::BinaryValue VARBINARY
java.lang.Boolean CtsComponents::BooleanValue TINYINT
java.lang.Character CtsComponents::CharValue CHAR
java.lang.Byte CtsComponents::OctetValue TINYINT
java.lang.Short CtsComponents::ShortValue SMALLINT
(N/A) CtsComponents::UShortValue SMALLINT
java.lang.Integer CtsComponents::LongValue INTEGER
(N/A) CtsComponents::ULongValue INTEGER
java.lang.Long CtsComponents::LongLongValue BIGINT
java.lang.Float CtsComponents::FloatValue REAL
java.lang.Double CtsComponents::DoubleValue FLOAT
java.lang.BigDecimal CtsComponents::DecimalValue DECIMAL
(N/A) CtsComponents::MoneyValue DECIMAL
java.sql.Date CtsComponents::DateValue DATE
java.sql.Time CtsComponents::TimeValue TIME
java.sql.Timestamp CtsComponents::TimestampValue TIMESTAMP
java.lang.Object (as primary key) Xdt::IntegerValue IDENTITY
Serializable Java object (N/A) VARBINARY

Note   Values that can be null If a field can contain nulls, do not use a primitive type. Instead, use the CtsComponents::TypeValue IDL type and the equivalent Java object type. For example, rather than float, use CtsComponents::FloatValue and java.lang.Float.
