Query vs. ResultQuery
Applies to ✅ Open Source Edition ✅ Express Edition ✅ Professional Edition ✅ Enterprise Edition
Unlike JDBC, jOOQ has a lot of knowledge about a SQL query's structure and internals (see the manual's section about SQL building). Hence, jOOQ distinguishes between these two fundamental types of queries. While every org.jooq.Query
can be executed, only org.jooq.ResultQuery
can return results (see the manual's section about fetching to learn more about fetching results). With plain SQL, the distinction can be made clear most easily:
// Create a Query object and execute it: Query query = create.query("DELETE FROM BOOK"); query.execute(); // Create a ResultQuery object and execute it, fetching results: ResultQuery<Record> resultQuery = create.resultQuery("SELECT * FROM BOOK"); Result<Record> result = resultQuery.fetch();
