{note}The SQL component executes SQL instructions, limited to the Data Manipulation Language, using JDBC.
It acts only as a service provider.{note}

{section}

The SQL component is a Binding Component (BC) which supports SQL instructions in Data Manipulation Language, through the Java Data Base Connectivity API (JDBC).

This component provides a set of X operations:

These operations are described in an embedded WSDL.

{petalslink}

h2. Usage

h3. Execute Operation
When the {{execute}} operation is set on the incoming message exchange, the component performs the SQL instructions contained in the IN message. If the execution returns information (an SQL SELECT for example), the OUT message contains the SQL ResultSet.
{info}If you want to see extra information on the response, you can set the show-metadata attribute to true. The response will contains row index, column name and type.{info}
The IN message looks like :
{code:xml}
<execute xmlns="http://petals.ow2.org/components/sql/version-1">
<sql show-metadata="true">SELECT name, firstname FROM user WHERE id='123'</sql>
{code}
The OUT message returned to the consumer contains the XML representation of the ResultSet returned by the SQL statement execution. If metadata have been enabled, their are set as attributes.
{code:xml}
<executeResponse xmlns="http://petals.ow2.org/components/sql/version-1">
<row index='1'>
<column name='name' type='varchar'>Field</column>
<column name='firstname' type='varchar'>Jean</column>
</row>
<row index='2'>
<column name='name' type='varchar'>Foo</column>
<column name='firstname' type='varchar'>John</column>
</row>
</executeResponse>
{info}The ResultSet can be written in the OUT message by a thread while the reponse message is sent back by another thread (pipes strreaming mechanism), increasing performance. To enable this feature, set the {{org.ow2.petals.transport.streaming=true}} property on the JBI Exchange, or set the {{streamingMode}} parameter of the Service Unit (in this case, the streaming mode is active for all requests).{info}
{info}The execute operation is defined in the SQL component abstract WSDL. You can import this abstract WSDL and define a concret WSDL to reference in your SU.{info}

h3. Service Unit descriptor

The SQL component creates dataSource initialized with Service Unit parameters.
You have to deploy a Service Unit with a JBI descriptor containing a provides section and the following parameters.
Here is a sample of a SU JBI descriptor to configure a MyDataBaseSQL service.
{code:xml}
<jbi:jbi version="1.0"
xmlns:interfaceNs="http://petals.ow2.org/components/sql/version-1"

<sql:metadata>true</sql:metadata>
</jbi:provides>
</jbi:services>
</jbi:jbi>
{code}

h3. Service Unit content

The Service Unit has to contain the following elements, packaged in an archive:
* The META-INF/jbi.xml descriptor file, has described above
{code}
service-unit.zip
+ META-INF
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - jbi.xml (as defined above)
{code}

h1. Component Configuration
{note}Caution: the component requires at least a JDBC Shared Library. Please install first a valid Shared Library containing your database JDBC driver. Then you can configure your component by using PEtALS maven plugin with the goal jbi:configure or the PEtALS Ant task petals-configure-component.{note}

The following attributes can be set during the installation phase to configure the component, using the params element of the jbi-install-component ANT task:
