B4J Library [B4X] [B4XLib] SD_SQL (direct access to MySQL, MariaDB, MS SQL, FireBird)

Based on @Peter Simpson's code (here), I developed a library that allows you to connect directly to MySql, MsSql (for the moment) databases with B4A and B4J. To be clear, you don't need JRDC to connect to the database located on a server

(I am working on a version for b4i, but it is only obtainable with a wrap. it will take a long time because I have never written a line in objective-c).
SQL library already exists for B4J and it would not be necessary to create a new library. But to maintain compliance in writing the code I preferred to develop a B4XLib that works for both B4i and B4j


Being a B4XLib class, the code is perfectly reusable. It suffices on these two jar files jtds-1.3.1.jar and mysql-connector-java-5.1.47-bin.jar. (You can find these files in the @Peter Simpson thread or on the internet). With both B4A and B4J the jar files must be copied to the libreries folder.
To connect to the Firebird database read post 26

It is not a wrap, it does not depend on the internal SQL library. It is written entirely in B4X
You can use it to access DataBases that allow direct access both in a local network and through the internet. you cannot access databases of external services that allow access only through PHP or ASP


NOTE: You can use this library for personal and commercial use. Include it in your projects.. Attention, even if it is a B4XLib library, it is not allowed to decompress it, modify it, change its name or redistribute it without the permission of the author
For B4A Add this on Manifest:
B4X:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />

    Private MSLocation As String = "192.168.0.147"
    '.......
    MSSQL.Initialize(Me,"MSSQL")
    MSSQL.Connect("net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver", $"jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://${MSLocation}/test"$, MSUsername, MSPassword)

    If Success Then
        Dim RS As SD_ResultSet = MSSQL.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM SYS.TABLES")
        Do While RS.NextRow
            Log(RS.GetString2(0))

B4X:
    Dim MYSQL As SD_SQL
    Private MyLocation As String = "192.168.1.102"
    '.......
    MYSQL.Initialize(Me,"MYSQL")
    MYSQL.Connect( "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver", $"jdbc:mysql://${MyLocation}/register_Northwind_MySQL?useSSL=false"$,  MyUsername, MyPassword)

Tested with Firebird database and works fine:
- B4J: jaybird-full-3.0.8.jar
- B4A: Jaybird_2_2_12.aar
B4X:
Private FBSQL As SD_SQL
Private FBUsername As String = "SYSDBA"
Private FBPassword As String = "masterkey"

FBSQL.Initialize(Me,"FBSQL")
FBSQL.Connect( "org.firebirdsql.jdbc.FBDriver","jdbc:firebirdsql:127.0.0.1/3050:" & "E:\Projetos\Firebird\B4X.FDB", FBUsername, FBPassword)

Hello,

Did you download the additional jar libraries from @Peter Simpson's page as I indicated? (Here)

Give us more details, are you using B4A or b4J? What do you want to connect to?

hi
i need connect b4a via remote mysql server its possible (sd)
This method is for connecting to a database locally, then on the same local network or on the same machine.

If you want to connect your device to a database hosted on a server, you need to use the methods offered by the service, usually php, asp or other (see here). Because for security reasons it is not allowed to directly access the Database within a hosted server.

HI Star-Dust
thanks for you lib
but have some wrong when I try changed it,
I Try change this:
Dim rs As SD_ResultSet= MSSQL.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM app where id='"& EditText1 &"'")

B4X:
Sub MSSQL_Ready (Success As Boolean)
    ListViewMs.SingleLineLayout.Label.TextColor=Colors.Black
    ListViewMs.SingleLineLayout.Label.Textsize=13
    ListViewMs.Clear
    If Success Then
       ' Dim rs As SD_ResultSet= MSSQL.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM app where id=2")''It's Right
        Dim rs As SD_ResultSet= MSSQL.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM app where id='"& EditText1 &"'")'It's wrong,But I Need this,Can you help me ,thank you very much

        Do While rs.NextRow
            ListViewMs.AddSingleLine(rs.GetString2(1))

        Loop
    Else
    End If
End Sub

Watch the SQL video tutorial: https://www.b4x.com/etp.html
I'm not sure whether this library supports async methods and parameterized queries. If not then you can use JdbcSQL.
It does not support them, although it is possible to implement them.

Simply because it is a solution born for b4a and specific for rare cases that it is not possible to use jRDC.

The b4j version is not necessary (already exist JdbcSQL), but it was created to maintain compatibility with the b4a version in the case of creating a cross-platform project

With B4J Code i able to connect to both MYSQL & MSSQL database

with B4A Code i can connect to MYSQL but i'm getting error message for MSSQL Database
Error : Not connected: java.sql.SQLException: Network error IOException: failed to connect to /192.168.43.191 (port 1433) from /:: (port 39914): connect failed: ETIMEDOUT (Connection timed out)


Dim MSSQL As SD_SQL
Private MSLocation As String = "192.168.43.191/global:1433;instanceName=ULTIMATE;databaseName=global;user=sa;password=solution.123;encrypt=true;trustServerCertificate=false;loginTimeout=30;"
Private MSUsername As String = "sa"
Private MSPassword As String = "solution.123"


Log("---------- NorthWind Database (MSSQL) ----------")
MSSQL.Initialize(Me,"MSSQL","net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver", $"jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://${MSLocation}/global"$, MSUsername, MSPassword)

Please guide.

Make sure you used the correct jar files (jtds-1.3.1.jar and mysql-connector-java-5.1.47-bin.jar).
The library has been tested on both platforms.
At the moment I cannot assist you on this project because I am off site. Next week I will be able to review.

PS. Kindly don't write with huge font, it's the same as screaming
