Hi,

Can someone explain me the difference between execute() and executeUpdate() methods in JDBC,I understand that executeUpdate() is to execute the DML stmts like Insert/Update/Delete,but the same statements can also be executed by execute() method. Which method is best for performance issues?

Thanks

Jyothi.

execute()::

Executes the SQL statement in the PreparedStatement object, which may be any kind of SQL statement,which returns either true or false means return type is boolean

executeUpdate()::

Executes the SQL statement in the PreparedStatement object, which must be an SQL INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE statement; or an SQL statement that returns nothing, such as a DDL statement.This returns integer which may be number of rows inserted ,updated or deleted.
