Does the compiled prepared statement in the database driver still require compilation in the database?

In the Oracle JDBC driver, there is an option to cache prepared statements. My understanding of this is that the prepared statements are precompiled by the driver, then cached, which improves performance for cached prepared statements. My question is, does this mean that the database never has to compile those prepared statements? Does ...

BigDecimal to SQL NUMBER: check for value larger than precision

In my app, I handle numbers as BigDecimal and store them as NUMBER(15,5). Now I'd need to properly check on Java if the BigDecimal values would fit the column, so that I can generate proper error messages without executing the SQL, catching exceptions and verifying the vendor error code. My database is Oracle 10.3, and such errors cause ...

Oracle connection not closing in Java Application

I have a connection leak in some older Java web applications which do not utilize connection pooling. Trying to find the leak is hard because IT will not grant me access to v$session SELECT Count(*) FROM v$session; So instead I am trying to debug with System.out statements.

I'm thinking maybe one solution would be to have subsequent Updates simply preempt any Updates already in progress. Is this possible? Does ...

How to use Oracle Indexes

I am a PHP developer with little Oracle experience who is tasked to work with an Oracle database. The first thing I have noticed is that the tables don't seem to have an auto number index as I am used to seeing in MySQL. Instead they seem to create an index out of two fields. For example I noticed that one of the indexes is a combinati...

Alternative to JDBC that enables to remotely call Oracle PL/SQL procedures that use record types

As far as I know, when using JDBC, it is not possible to remotely call Oracle procedures that have records or booleans as arguments. I wonder if there is any, not necessarily Java-based, interface that does not have such limitations. I know about JBublisher, but I'd rather there was some way that would not require to install any wrappers...
