JDBC PreparedStatement example to Delete a record
In this example let us learn how to delete a record from a table via JDBC PreparedStatement.
To issue a delete statement, calls the PreparedStatement.executeUpdate() as show below
String deleteQuery = "DELETE EMPLOYEE WHERE USER_ID = ?"; PreparedStatement preparedStatement = connection.prepareStatement(deleteQuery); preparedStatement.setInt(1, 1000); // execute delete SQL statement preparedStatement.executeUpdate();
