## Interface RowSetReader

- All Known Subinterfaces:
    XmlReader

      public interface RowSetReader

  The facility that a disconnected `RowSet` object calls on to populate itself with rows of data. A reader (an object implementing the `RowSetReader` interface) may be registered with a `RowSet` object that supports the reader/writer paradigm. When the `RowSet` object's `execute` method is called, it in turn calls the reader's `readData` method.
  Since:
    1.4

- - ### Method Summary

    Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `void` | `readData(RowSetInternal caller)` Reads the new contents of the calling `RowSet` object.

- - ### Method Detail

    - #### readData

          void readData(RowSetInternal caller)
                        throws SQLException

      Reads the new contents of the calling `RowSet` object. In order to call this method, a `RowSet` object must have implemented the `RowSetInternal` interface and registered this `RowSetReader` object as its reader. The `readData` method is invoked internally by the `RowSet.execute` method for rowsets that support the reader/writer paradigm.

      The `readData` method adds rows to the caller. It can be implemented in a wide variety of ways and can even populate the caller with rows from a nonrelational data source. In general, a reader may invoke any of the rowset's methods, with one exception. Calling the method `execute` will cause an `SQLException` to be thrown because `execute` may not be called recursively. Also, when a reader invokes `RowSet` methods, no listeners are notified; that is, no `RowSetEvent` objects are generated and no `RowSetListener` methods are invoked. This is true because listeners are already being notified by the method `execute`.

      Parameters:
        `caller` - the `RowSet` object (1) that has implemented the `RowSetInternal` interface, (2) with which this reader is registered, and (3) whose `execute` method called this reader
      Throws:
        `SQLException` - if a database access error occurs or this method invokes the `RowSet.execute` method
