JDBC Util Package

This package provides a utility class for managing JDBC (Java Database Connectivity) connections to a SQL Server database.

Overview

The JDBC class in this package is designed to simplify the process of establishing a connection to a SQL Server database using properties specified in a configuration file (db.properties). It also provides a method to close the database connection.

Usage

1. Setup Properties:

   Before using the JDBC class, make sure to set up the db.properties file with the required database connection information. The properties file should be located at src/main/java/util/Database/db.properties.

2. Instantiate JDBC:

   Create an instance of the JDBC class, which automatically initializes a database connection using the properties from the db.properties file.

   JDBC jdbc = new JDBC();

setup

Get Connection:

1. Retrieve the established database connection using the getConnection method.

       Connection connection = jdbc.getConnection();

2. Close Connection: When done using the database, close the connection using the databaseClose method.

       jdbc.databaseClose();

Configuration

The db.properties file should include the following properties:

userName The username for connecting to the database.
password The password for connecting to the database.
ENCRYPT Encryption setting for the connection.
databaseName The name of the database.
IP The IP of the database.
port The port number for the database connection.
