A common interface for records that can be stored back to the database again.

Any Record can be updatable, if

  1. it represents a record from a table or view - a TableRecord
  2. its underlying table or view has a "main unique key", i.e. a primary key or at least one unique key

The "main unique key" is used by jOOQ to perform the various operations that can be performed on an UpdatableRecord:

  • delete() : Deleting the record
  • refresh() : Refreshing the records attributes (or loading it for the first time)
  • store() : Storing the record to the database. This executes either an INSERT or an UPDATE statement
  • merge() : Merging a record to the database. This executes an INSERT .. ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE statement.

UpdatableRecords are Attachable, which means that they hold an underlying Configuration that they can be detached from. They can also be instantiated without any underlying Configuration, in case of which they have to be attached first, in order to be refreshed, stored, or deleted.

@NotNull Record key();
Store this record back to the database.

Depending on the state of the primary key's value, an insert() or an update() statement is executed.

Statement type

  • If this record was created by client code, an INSERT statement is executed
  • If this record was loaded by jOOQ and the primary key value was changed, an INSERT statement is executed (unless Settings.isUpdatablePrimaryKeys() is set). jOOQ expects that primary key values will never change due to the principle of normalisation in RDBMS. So if client code changes primary key values, this is interpreted by jOOQ as client code wanting to duplicate this record.
  • If this record was loaded by jOOQ, and the primary key value was not changed, an UPDATE statement is executed.

In either statement type, only those fields are inserted/updated, which had been explicitly set by client code, in order to allow for DEFAULT values to be applied by the underlying RDBMS. If no fields were modified, neither an UPDATE nor an INSERT will be executed.

Automatic value generation

Use insert() or update() to explicitly force either statement type.

  • IDENTITY columns

    If there is an IDENTITY column defined on the record's underlying table (see Table.getIdentity()), then the auto-generated IDENTITY value is refreshed automatically on INSERT's. Refreshing is done using Statement.getGeneratedKeys(), where this is supported by the JDBC driver. See also InsertQuery.getReturnedRecord() for more details

  • VERSION and TIMESTAMP columns

    jOOQ can auto-generate "version" and "timestamp" values that can be used for optimistic locking. If this is an UpdatableRecord and if this record returns fields for either Table.getRecordVersion() or Table.getRecordTimestamp(), then these values are set onto the INSERT or UPDATE statement being executed. On execution success, the generated values are set to this record. Use the code-generation configuration to specify naming patterns for auto-generated "version" and "timestamp" columns.

    Should you want to circumvent jOOQ-generated updates to these columns, you can render an INSERT or UPDATE statement manually using the various DSLContext.insertInto(Table<Record>), DSLContext.update(Table<Record>) methods.

Optimistic locking

If an UPDATE statement is executed and Settings.isExecuteWithOptimisticLocking() is set to true, then this record will first be compared with the latest state in the database. There are two modes of operation for optimistic locking:

  • With VERSION and/or TIMESTAMP columns configured

    This is the preferred way of using optimistic locking in jOOQ. If this is an UpdatableRecord and if this record returns fields for either Table.getRecordVersion() or Table.getRecordTimestamp(), then these values are compared to the corresponding value in the database in the WHERE clause of the executed DELETE statement.

  • Without any specific column configurations

    In order to compare this record with the latest state, the database record will be locked pessimistically using a SELECT .. FOR UPDATE statement. Not all databases support the FOR UPDATE clause natively. Namely, the following databases will show slightly different behaviour:

    • SQLDialect.SQLSERVER: jOOQ will try to lock the database record using WITH (ROWLOCK, UPDLOCK) hints.
    • SQLDialect.SQLITE: No pessimistic locking is possible. Client code must assure that no race-conditions can occur between jOOQ's checking of database record state and the actual UPDATE

    See SelectQuery.setForUpdate(boolean) for more details

Statement examples

Possible statements are

  • INSERT INTO [table] ([modified fields, including keys])
    VALUES ([modified values, including keys])
  • UPDATE [table]
    SET [modified fields = modified values, excluding keys]
    WHERE [key fields = key values]
    AND [version/timestamp fields = version/timestamp values]

Statement execution enforcement

If you want to enforce statement execution, regardless if the values in this record were changed, you can explicitly set the changed flags for all values with Record.changed(boolean) or for single values with Record.changed(Field<?>, boolean), prior to storing, or alternatively, use Settings.getUpdateUnchangedRecords() and/or Settings.isInsertUnchangedRecords().

This is the same as calling record.store(record.fields())

Throws:

Returns:1 if the record was stored to the database. 0 if storing was not necessary.

Store this record back to the database using a MERGE statement.

Unlike store(), the statement produced by this operation does not depend on whether the record has been previously fetched from the database or created afresh. It implements the semantics of an INSERT .. ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE statement, which will update the row regardless of which (unique) key value is already present. See InsertOnDuplicateStep.onDuplicateKeyUpdate().

When optimistic locking is active for this record, then this operation will execute insert() or update() explicitly, depending on whether the lock values are present already in the record.

If you want to enforce statement execution, regardless if the values in this record were changed, you can explicitly set the changed flags for all values with Record.changed(boolean) or for single values with Record.changed(Field<?>, boolean), prior to insertion, or alternatively, use Settings.getUpdateUnchangedRecords() and/or Settings.isInsertUnchangedRecords()..

Optimistic locking

If a DELETE statement is executed and Settings.isExecuteWithOptimisticLocking() is set to true, then this record will first be compared with the latest state in the database. There are two modes of operation for optimistic locking:

  • With VERSION and/or TIMESTAMP columns configured

    This is the preferred way of using optimistic locking in jOOQ. If this is an UpdatableRecord and if this record returns fields for either Table.getRecordVersion() or Table.getRecordTimestamp(), then these values are compared to the corresponding value in the database in the WHERE clause of the executed DELETE statement.

  • Without any specific column configurations

    In order to compare this record with the latest state, the database record will be locked pessimistically using a SELECT .. FOR UPDATE statement. Not all databases support the FOR UPDATE clause natively. Namely, the following databases will show slightly different behaviour:

    • SQLDialect.SQLSERVER: jOOQ will try to lock the database record using WITH (ROWLOCK, UPDLOCK) hints.
    • SQLDialect.SQLITE: No pessimistic locking is possible. Client code must assure that no race-conditions can occur between jOOQ's checking of database record state and the actual DELETE

    See SelectQuery.setForUpdate(boolean) for more details

Statement examples

The executed statement is

DELETE FROM [table]
WHERE [key fields = key values]
AND [version/timestamp fields = version/timestamp values]

This is in fact the same as calling delete(getTable().getPrimaryKey().getFieldsArray())
