I’ll introduce a method for embedding lists in PreparedStatement IN clauses in Java (J2SE 1.4).

This resource describes various approaches for embedding lists in PreparedStatement IN clauses and was very helpful.

• JavaRanch Journal - October 2005 Volume 4 Issue 2

public String preparePlaceHolders(int length) {
    StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
    for (int i = 0; i < length;) {
        buffer.append("?");
        if (++i < length) {
            buffer.append(",");
        }
    }
    return buffer.toString();
}

public void setValues(PreparedStatement preparedStatement, ArrayList values) throws SQLException {
    for (int i = 0; i < values.size(); i++) {
        preparedStatement.setObject(i + 1, values.get(i));
    }
}

That’s all from the Gemba where we want to use Java’s PreparedStatement.
