in the terminal window where the server is running. This will send a termination signal to the server process, causing it to shut down gracefully.jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://localhost/mydatabase
(replace mydatabase
with your actual database name), and execute the SQL command SHUTDOWN;
. This will instruct the server to shut down after completing any pending transactions. --port
option. For example, you can start the server on a different port like 1234 by running the following command:java -cp path/to/hsqldb.jar org.hsqldb.server.Server --database.0 file:mydatabase --dbname.0 mydatabase --port 1234?
path/to/hsqldb.jar
with the actual path to the HSQLDB JAR file, and replace mydatabase

option specifies the port number to use for client-server communication.INSERT INTO
statement followed by the name of the table and the values you want to insert.UPDATE
statement followed by the name of the table and the values you want to update.DELETE FROM
statement followed by the name of the table and any conditions that should be met to delete the data. CREATE DATABASE <database_name>;?
<database_name>
with the desired name for your new database.CREATE TABLE <table_name> (
column1 datatype1 [constraint],
column2 datatype2 [constraint],
...
[table_constraint]
);?
<table_name>
with the desired name for your new table. Define the columns of the table by specifying their names and data types. Optionally, you can add constraints to enforce data integrity rules on the table columns. Finally, you can include table-level constraints to enforce rules that involve multiple columns.CREATE TABLE Employee (
employee_id INT PRIMARY KEY,
first_name VARCHAR(50),
last_name VARCHAR(50),
email VARCHAR(100) UNIQUE,
hire_date DATE,
salary DECIMAL(10, 2),
department_id INT,
CONSTRAINT fk_department_id FOREIGN KEY (department_id) REFERENCES Department(department_id)
);?
Employee
with columns for employee ID, first name, last name, email, hire date, salary, and department ID. We've added primary and foreign key constraints to enforce data integrity rules.CREATE TABLE
statement, the new table will be created in the database, and you can start inserting data into it, querying it, or performing other operations as needed. HSQLDB

keyword followed by the column name(s) in parentheses after the column definition. For example:CREATE TABLE table_name (

keyword followed by the column name(s) in parentheses and the referenced table and column name(s) in parentheses after the column definition. For example:CREATE TABLE table_name (

CREATE INDEX
SQL statement. Indexes help improve query performance by allowing the database to quickly locate rows based on the values of indexed columns. Here's the basic syntax for creating an index in HSQLDB:CREATE INDEX index_name ON table_name (column1, column2, ...);?
index_name
with the desired name for your index, table_name
with the name of the table you want to create the index on, and column1
, column2
, etc., with the names of the columns you want to include in the index. You can create indexes on one or more columns, and you can include multiple columns in a single index.CREATE INDEX idx_lastname ON Employee (last_name);?
idx_lastname
on the last_name
column of the Employee
table.
You can also create composite indexes on multiple columns to improve the performance of queries that involve those columns. Here's an example of creating a composite index on two columns:CREATE INDEX idx_firstname_lastname ON Employee (first_name, last_name);?
idx_firstname_lastname
on the first_name
and last_name
columns of the Employee
table.SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.SYSTEM_PROPERTIES WHERE NAME = ‘version’
ALTER TABLE SQL
statement. Here's the general syntax for adding constraints to a table:ALTER TABLE table_name
ADD CONSTRAINT constraint_name constraint_definition;?
table_name
with the name of the table to which you want to add the constraint, constraint_name
with the desired name for the constraint, and constraint_definition
with the definition of the constraint.ALTER TABLE Employee
ADD CONSTRAINT pk_employee_id PRIMARY KEY (employee_id);?
ALTER TABLE Employee
ADD CONSTRAINT fk_department_id FOREIGN KEY (department_id) REFERENCES Department(department_id);?
ALTER TABLE Employee
ADD CONSTRAINT uk_email UNIQUE (email);?
Check Constraint :ALTER TABLE Employee
ADD CONSTRAINT ck_salary CHECK (salary >= 0);?
ALTER TABLE Employee
ALTER COLUMN first_name SET NOT NULL;?

HSQLDB
, you can use the CALL
statement followed by the name of the stored procedure and any required parameters. Here's the basic syntax:CALL procedure_name(parameter1, parameter2, ...);?
procedure_name
with the name of the stored procedure you want to call, and provide any required parameters according to the procedure definition.SELECT
statement, similar to querying a table. Here's an example:CALL my_stored_procedure();?
my_stored_procedure
without any parameters.
If the stored procedure requires parameters, you can provide them as follows:CALL my_stored_procedure('parameter_value');?
SELECT * FROM my_stored_procedure();?

file in HSQLDB serves as a central configuration file where you can specify various settings and properties related to the operation and behavior of the HSQLDB database engine.
