Continue with HashMap iterator even if SQLException is caught

[Manju Krishna]

Hi,

I need to populate a table in the database based on the values in hashmap.
The hashMap may contain deuplicate values in it but with different key..
the code snippet is...

 private void insertToLGGLS(HashMap<String, String> map) throws SQLException {
        PreparedStatement pstmtLGGLS = null;
        String repKey = "";
        Iterator<String> itr = map.keySet().iterator();         
        String queryLGGLS = "INSERT INTO TIDLGGLS (BASE_LANGUAGE_TERM,ELEM_NBR,TRANSLATED_TRM_160,TRANS_TERM_SIZE,TRANSLATED_ALIAS_1,ALIAS_1_TERM_SIZE,TRANSLATED_ALIAS_2,ALIAS_2_TERM_SIZE,TRANSLATED_ALIAS_3,ALIAS_3_TERM_SIZE,TRANSLATED_ALIAS_4,ALIAS_4_TERM_SIZE,MAX_TERM_SIZE,CREATE_DATE,CREATED_BY,UPDATE_DATE,UPDATE_BY,VERIFICATION_DATE,VERIFICATION_BY,PROPAGATION_DATE,GLOSSARY_STATUS,STATUS_DATE,STATUS_TIME,APPLICATION_VER,REP_AUTO_VERIFY,ALERT_GROUP_NAME,TIME_STAMP,REPOSITORY_KEY) VALUES(?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?)";

        try {                       
            while (itr.hasNext()) {
               
                repKey = itr.next();
                String value = map.get(repKey);                                   
                String maxSize = value.substring(0, 2);
                String baseTerm = value.substring(3, value.length());                
                
                pstmtLGGLS = con.prepareStatement(queryLGGLS, ResultSet.TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY, ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY);

                pstmtLGGLS.setString(1, baseTerm);
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(2, "        ");
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(3, " ");
                pstmtLGGLS.setInt(4, 0);
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(5, " ");
                pstmtLGGLS.setInt(6, 0);
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(7, " ");
                pstmtLGGLS.setInt(8, 0);
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(9, " ");
                pstmtLGGLS.setInt(10, 0);
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(11, " ");
                pstmtLGGLS.setInt(12, 0);
                pstmtLGGLS.setInt(13, Integer.parseInt(maxSize));
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(14, L10NUtil.currentDate());
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(15, Constants.UPDATE_BY);
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(16, L10NUtil.currentDate());
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(17, Constants.UPDATE_BY);
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(18, L10NUtil.currentDate());
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(19, Constants.UPDATE_BY);
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(20, L10NUtil.currentDate());
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(21, Constants.IMPORT_STATUS);
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(22, L10NUtil.currentDate());
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(23, L10NUtil.currentTime());
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(24, L10NPreferences.getPrefValue(Constants.PROP_SOURCE_VERSION));
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(25, L10NPreferences.getPrefValue(Constants.PROP_BOOLEAN_TRUE));
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(26, " ");
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(27, L10NUtil.currentTimeStamp());
                pstmtLGGLS.setString(28, repKey); 
                
                pstmtLGGLS.execute();                
                System.out.println("Count : " + count++ + " Rep Key : " + repKey + " Time : " + L10NUtil.currentTimeStamp());
            }                        
        } catch (SQLException ex) {
            if (L10NPreferences.getPrefValue(Constants.PROP_DB_SELECTED).equals(Constants.EXTERNAL_DB) && ex.getErrorCode() == 1) {
                logger.info("Entry Already exists in Glossary Table for RepKey: " + repKey);
            } else if (L10NPreferences.getPrefValue(Constants.PROP_DB_SELECTED).equals(Constants.EMBEDDED_DB) && ex.getErrorCode() == 30000) {
                logger.info("Entry Already exists in Glossary Table for RepKey: " + repKey);
            } else {
                ex.printStackTrace();
                logger.warning("Error in inserting record for repository key: " + repKey + "\n" + ex.getMessage() + "Error Code: "+ex.getErrorCode());
                updateFlag = false;
            }

        } finally {

            if (pstmtLGGLS != null) {
                pstmtLGGLS.close();
            }

        }
    }

When i insert into the DB... the duplicate values must not go in as i have a unique index on the values...
so what ever it takes from hashmap.. it should insert wat is not already der.. so i added a catch block to just log that the entry already exists...
so wat i need is to continue with the next iterator after the exception is caught..
This seemed to be working at times.. but not all times.. Can anyone help me out this... Its a long time show stopper in the project..
please help...

Why don't you just put pstmtLGGLS.execute(); in a try/catch block ?

Yes.. it works.. thanks for the help..
and also sorry for posting it twice as i was not sure of where to post..

Thanks a lot..
