execute
- public boolean execute() throws SQLException
- Executes the SQL statement in this PreparedStatement object, which may be any kind of SQL statement. Some prepared statements return multiple results; the execute method handles these complex statements as well as the simpler form of statements handled by the methods executeQuery and executeUpdate.
- The execute method returns a boolean to indicate the form of the first result. You must call either the method getResultSet or getUpdateCount to retrieve the result; you must call getMoreResults to move to any subsequent result(s).
- Returns: true if the first result is a ResultSet object; false if the first result is an update count or there is no result
- Throws: SQLException – if a database access error occurs or an argument is supplied to this method
