Can ResultSet for a PreparedStatement be updateable?

[Ravi Sathish]

Hi Ranchers
Can resultset for a query executed from a Prepared statement be scrollable or updated? If so how or else why not?
I know it works for a statement:
Statement stmt = conn.createStatement(
ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE,ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE);
However I learnt that there's a bug in MYSQL/JDBC connector that throws an exception when used on a query for tables from a different database. Does anybody has an idea where this bug is resolved.
Thanks
Ravi

This sounds like you have a couple distinct issues.
For the concurrecy question, try

prepareStatement(String sql, int resultSetType, int resultSetConcurrency)

. Whether the driver you have will support it or not I cannot say.
I don't know about the MySQL bug that you cite. Do you unambiguously cite the database name in the query? From the MySQL online docs at http://camden-www.rutgers.edu/HELP/Internet/mysql/manual_Reference.html#Legal_names:

db_name.tbl_name.col_name Column col_name from table tbl_name of the database db_name. This form is available in MySQL Version 3.22 or later.

If the development teams know about such a bug in the driver, maybe you should check with them.
HTH,
