Use DatabaseMetaData to get table column names
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DatabaseMetaData;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
public class Main {
private static final String DRIVER = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";
private static final String URL = "jdbc:mysql://localhost/testdb";
private static final String USERNAME = "root";
private static final String PASSWORD = "";
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
Class.forName(DRIVER);
Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection(URL, USERNAME, PASSWORD);
DatabaseMetaData metadata = connection.getMetaData();
ResultSet resultSet = metadata.getColumns(null, null, "users", null);
while (resultSet.next()) {
String name = resultSet.getString("COLUMN_NAME");
String type = resultSet.getString("TYPE_NAME");
int size = resultSet.getInt("COLUMN_SIZE");
System.out.println("Column name: [" + name + "]; type: [" + type + "]; size: [" + size + "]");
}
connection.close();
}
