I am creating a java application which uses ObjectDB to create and maintain a set of databases. I'm currently trying to implement a DB to store user objects consisting of username and password strings. On a JFrame/swing class I have a button for creating new users, when this button is clicked, I want the following to happen:
- Create (or connect to) database
- Search the database to see if a user object exists with supplied username
- if user already exists show a dialog message, otherwise create the user
However, when this button is clicked I get a 'User not found' error on the line which uses the results from the query object. I'm pretty sure it's because I have an empty database, however I want the code to work for the first time the program is ran, so it needs to handle an empty database. I've tried changing the code to create a new user before the query is first run, then the code works how I want it to each time the button is clicked, and it can detect whether or not a new user needs to be created.
I tried to create a 'default' or 'admin' type user so the search would work, however this means a repeat 'default' user will be created every time the program is ran, which is obviously an unwanted feature, and I can't do a query to check if the database is empty (so I could only create the default user on the first run of the program), because that is the problem I was having in the first place!
So, to anyone experienced with ObjectDB, is there a way I can handle the case where an empty database is searched?
Here's the relevant parts of my code:
public class FrameLogIn extends JFrame {
private JPanel contentPane;
private String username;
char[] password;
private static EntityManager em;
/**
* Launch the application.
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
try {
FrameLogIn frame = new FrameLogIn();
frame.setVisible(true);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});
}
/**
* Create the frame.
*/
public FrameLogIn() {
EntityManagerFactory emf =
Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("user.odb");
em = emf.createEntityManager();
final JTextField txtUsername = new JTextField();
txtUsername.setFont(new Font("Segoe UI Light", Font.PLAIN, 30));
txtUsername.setHorizontalAlignment(SwingConstants.CENTER);
txtUsername.setToolTipText("username");
txtUsername.setText("");
txtUsername.setBounds(220, 30, 177, 52);
contentPane.add(txtUsername);
txtUsername.setColumns(10);
final JPasswordField passwordField = new JPasswordField();
passwordField.setFont(new Font("Tahoma", Font.PLAIN, 30));
passwordField.setHorizontalAlignment(SwingConstants.CENTER);
passwordField.setBounds(220, 93, 177, 52);
contentPane.add(passwordField);
JButton btnNewUser = new JButton("New user");
btnNewUser.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
username = txtUsername.getText();
password = passwordField.getPassword();
System.out.println(username);
TypedQuery<Long> q = em.createQuery(
"SELECT COUNT(u) FROM User u "
+ "WHERE u.name = '" + username + "'", Long.class);
if (q.getSingleResult()>0) {
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(contentPane.getParent(), "A user with this name already exists.");
} else {
em.getTransaction().begin();
User newUser = new User(username, password.toString());
em.persist(newUser);
em.getTransaction().commit();
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(contentPane.getParent(), "User created.");
}
}
});
btnNewUser.setFont(new Font("Segoe WP Semibold", Font.PLAIN, 25));
btnNewUser.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
btnNewUser.setBounds(71, 175, 149, 63);
contentPane.add(btnNewUser);
}
}
and the error:
Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" [ObjectDB 2.5.3_03] SELECT COUNT(u) FROM ==> User <== u WHERE u.name = ''

Thanks, also for the record i will not be storing plaintext passwords, I'm just trying to get a basic DB working before I start implementing hashed passwords.
