How do you know in your Java program that a SQL warning is generated as a result of executing a SQL statement in the database?

  1. O (a) You must catch the checked SQLException which is thrown by the method which executes

  2. O (b) You must catch the unchecked SQLWarningException which is thrown by the method

  3. O (c) You must invoke the getWarnings() method on the Statement object (or a sub interface

  4. O (d) You must query the ResultSet object about possible warnings generated by the database

C Correct answer
Explanation

To know in your Java program that a SQL warning is generated as a result of executing a SQL statement in the database, you must invoke the getWarnings() method on the Statement object (or a sub interface). Therefore, option C is the correct answer.

Option A is incorrect because SQLException is thrown when an SQL error occurs, not a warning. It is a checked exception and must be caught or declared to be thrown.

Option B is incorrect because SQLWarningException is not a valid exception class in Java. SQLWarning is the class that represents a warning issued by the database.

Option D is incorrect because ResultSet object is used to retrieve data from the database after executing a query, not to retrieve warnings.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

The Answer is: C. O (c) You must invoke the getWarnings() method on the Statement object (or a sub interface).

AI explanation

JDBC does not throw an exception for warnings (they aren't fatal), so the only way to discover them is to explicitly call getWarnings() on the Statement (or Connection/ResultSet) object after execution, which returns a chained SQLWarning object if one exists. There's no SQLWarningException type, and the ResultSet isn't queried for warnings related to statement execution the way the option describes.
