javax.sql
Provides the API for server side data source access and processing from the Java programming language.
javax.sql.rowset
Standard interfaces and base classes for JDBC `RowSet` implementations.
javax.sql.rowset.serial
Provides utility classes to allow serializable mappings between SQL types and data types in the Java programming language.
javax.sql.rowset.spi

- Classes in java.sql used by java.sql
  Class
  Description

  A builder created from a `DataSource` object, used to establish a connection to the database that the `data source` object represents.
  DatabaseMetaData
  Comprehensive information about the database as a whole.
  Date
  A thin wrapper around a millisecond value that allows JDBC to identify this as an SQL `DATE` value.
  Driver

  PreparedStatement
  An object that represents a precompiled SQL statement.
  PseudoColumnUsage
  Enumeration for pseudo/hidden column usage.
  Ref
  The mapping in the Java programming language of an SQL `REF` value, which is a reference to an SQL structured type value in the database.
  ResultSet
  A table of data representing a database result set, which is usually generated by executing a statement that queries the database.

  The representation of a savepoint, which is a point within the current transaction that can be referenced from the `Connection.rollback` method.
  ShardingKey
  Interface used to indicate that this object represents a Sharding Key.
  ShardingKeyBuilder
  A builder created from a `DataSource` or `XADataSource` object, used to create a `ShardingKey` with sub-keys of supported data types.
  SQLClientInfoException
  The subclass of `SQLException` is thrown when one or more client info properties could not be set on a `Connection`.
  SQLData
  The interface used for the custom mapping of an SQL user-defined type (UDT) to a class in the Java programming language.
  SQLException
  An exception that provides information on a database access error or other errors.
  SQLFeatureNotSupportedException
  The subclass of `SQLException` thrown when the SQLState class value is '0A' ( the value is 'zero' A).
  SQLInput
  An input stream that contains a stream of values representing an instance of an SQL structured type or an SQL distinct type.
  SQLNonTransientException
  The subclass of `SQLException` thrown when an instance where a retry of the same operation would fail unless the cause of the `SQLException` is corrected.
  SQLOutput
  The output stream for writing the attributes of a user-defined type back to the database.
  SQLTransientException
  The subclass of `SQLException` is thrown in situations where a previously failed operation might be able to succeed when the operation is retried without any intervention by application-level functionality.
  SQLType
  An object that is used to identify a generic SQL type, called a JDBC type or a vendor specific data type.
  SQLWarning
  An exception that provides information on database access warnings.
  SQLXML
  The mapping in the JavaTM programming language for the SQL XML type.
  Statement
  The object used for executing a static SQL statement and returning the results it produces.
  Struct
  The standard mapping in the Java programming language for an SQL structured type.
  Time
  A thin wrapper around the `java.util.Date` class that allows the JDBC API to identify this as an SQL `TIME` value.
  Timestamp
  A thin wrapper around `java.util.Date` that allows the JDBC API to identify this as an SQL `TIMESTAMP` value.
  Wrapper
  Interface for JDBC classes which provide the ability to retrieve the delegate instance when the instance in question is in fact a proxy class.
