Here is a different approach that I have taken. I added the ability for the user to set the number of parameters they will be providing on the call. These will be the first n number of positional parameters. Any remaining parameters available in the stored-proc, will have to be set via the database's default value handling. This allows new parameters to be added to the end of the list with default values, or to be null-able, without breaking code that does not know to provide a value.
I sub-classed SimpleJdbcCall and added the methods to set the "maxParamCount". I also used a bit a evil reflection to set my sub-classed version of CallMetaDataContext.
public class MySimpleJdbcCall extends SimpleJdbcCall
{
private final MyCallMetaDataContext callMetaDataContext = new MyCallMetaDataContext();
public MySimpleJdbcCall(DataSource dataSource)
{
this(new JdbcTemplate(dataSource));
}
public MySimpleJdbcCall(JdbcTemplate jdbcTemplate)
{
super(jdbcTemplate);
try
{
// Access private field
Field callMetaDataContextField = AbstractJdbcCall.class.getDeclaredField("callMetaDataContext");
callMetaDataContextField.setAccessible(true);
// Make it non-final
Field modifiersField = Field.class.getDeclaredField("modifiers");
modifiersField.setAccessible(true);
modifiersField.setInt(callMetaDataContextField, callMetaDataContextField.getModifiers() & ~Modifier.FINAL);
// Set field
callMetaDataContextField.set(this, this.callMetaDataContext);
}
catch (NoSuchFieldException | IllegalAccessException ex)
{
throw new RuntimeException("Exception thrown overriding AbstractJdbcCall.callMetaDataContext field", ex);
}
}
public MySimpleJdbcCall withMaxParamCount(int maxInParamCount)
{
setMaxParamCount(maxInParamCount);
return this;
}
public int getMaxParamCount()
{
return this.callMetaDataContext.getMaxParamCount();
}
public void setMaxParamCount(int maxInParamCount)
{
this.callMetaDataContext.setMaxParamCount(maxInParamCount);
}
}
In my CallMetaDataContext sub-class, I store the maxInParamCount, and use it to trim the list of parameters known to exist in the stored-proc.
public class MyCallMetaDataContext extends CallMetaDataContext
{
private int maxParamCount = Integer.MAX_VALUE;
public int getMaxParamCount()
{
return maxParamCount;
}
public void setMaxParamCount(int maxInParamCount)
{
this.maxParamCount = maxInParamCount;
}
@Override
protected List<SqlParameter> reconcileParameters(List<SqlParameter> parameters)
{
List<SqlParameter> limittedParams = new ArrayList<>();
int paramCount = 0;
for(SqlParameter param : super.reconcileParameters(parameters))
{
if (!param.isResultsParameter())
{
paramCount++;
if (paramCount > this.maxParamCount)
continue;
}
limittedParams.add(param);
}
return limittedParams;
}
}
Use is basically the same except for seeting the max parameter count.
SimpleJdbcCall call = new MySimpleJdbcCall(jdbcTemplate)
.withMaxParamCount(3)
.withProcedureName("MayProc");
SMALL RANT: It's funny that Spring is well know for its IOC container. But, within its utility classes, I have to resort to reflection to provide an alternate implementation of a dependent class.
