Interface SQLOutput

public interface SQLOutput

The output stream for writing the attributes of a user-defined type back to the database. This interface, used only for custom mapping, is used by the driver, and its methods are never directly invoked by a programmer.

When an object of a class implementing the interface `SQLData` is passed as an argument to an SQL statement, the JDBC driver calls the method `SQLData.getSQLType` to determine the kind of SQL datum being passed to the database. The driver then creates an instance of `SQLOutput` and passes it to the method `SQLData.writeSQL`. The method `writeSQL` in turn calls the appropriate `SQLOutput` writer methods `writeBoolean`, `writeCharacterStream`, and so on) to write data from the `SQLData` object to the `SQLOutput` output stream as the representation of an SQL user-defined type.

  1.2

### writeObject

    public void writeObject(SQLData x)
                     throws SQLException

  Writes to the stream the data contained in the given `SQLData` object. When the `SQLData` object is `null`, this method writes an SQL `NULL` to the stream. Otherwise, it calls the `SQLData.writeSQL` method of the given object, which writes the object's attributes to the stream. The implementation of the method `SQLData.writeSQ` calls the appropriate `SQLOutput` writer method(s) for writing each of the object's attributes in order. The attributes must be read from an `SQLInput` input stream and written to an `SQLOutput` output stream in the same order in which they were listed in the SQL definition of the user-defined type.
