Closed ResultSet without closing statement

Question

In my application, the following code

ResultSet images = statement.executeQuery("SELECT id, filename, run" +
          " FROM images" +
          " JOIN comparer_results results ON results.toImageId = images.id" +
          " WHERE result <= 100");

while (images.next()) {
    statement.executeUpdate("DELETE FROM images WHERE id = "
        + images.getInt("id"));

    File imageFile = new File(config.getProperty("system.imageDirectory")
        + File.separator
        + images.getString("filename") + ".jpg");
}

Throws the exception

java.sql.SQLException: Operation not allowed after ResultSet closed

In the line where the imageFile get instantiated. It's my understanding that this is caused by the images.getString("filename") operation. But why is the ResultSet closed? I never call such a method and the first operation on the resultset (images.getInt("id")) works just fine.

Answer 1

Assoon as you called

statement.executeUpdate("DELETE FROM images WHERE id = "
    + images.getInt("id"));

you re-used the statement. This means that any previously created ResultSet is closed automatically.

You must use two Statements in this case.
