    Default how do I do a resultSet for ArrayList<String> and In clause?

    Hi,

    I have been attempting to get this resultSet for almost 2 days but still can't get it done.

    Basically, I am trying to get the tutor_id and subject from a table which contains these 2 columns - tutor_id and subject_name.
    User will enter a form and so I will get the subject thru parametervalues.

    So, when I know the subjects the user wants, I will have to retrieve the corresponding subjects.

    At first, I tried to use HashMap<Integer, ArrayList<String>> but after failing so many times, I decided to try something simple first as follows:

    Here's the code snippet;

    String sql1 = "select tutor_id, subject_name from tutor_subject where subject_name in ("
    					+ builder.deleteCharAt(builder.length() - 1) + ")";
     
    			PreparedStatement ps2  = connection.prepareStatement(sql1);	
    			for (Iterator <String> iterator = subjs.iterator(); iterator.hasNext();) {
    			int tutor_id = tutor.getTutor_id();
    			ps2.setInt(1, tutor_id);
    		//	int parameterIndex = 1;            
                    String subject = (String) iterator.next();
                ps2.setString(2, subject);
             //   parameterIndex++;
                }
     
    					ps2.executeQuery();
    					while (rs.next()) {
    					System.out.println(
    							"tutor ID=" + rs.getInt("tutor_id") + ", subjectName=" + rs.getString("subject_name"));
     
     
    				}

    I tried to learn from this tutorial : https://www.javaguides.net/2018/10/j...h-list-of.html

    but I am not sure where I had gone wrong.

    The latest error is :

    org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: The column index is out of range: 3, number of columns: 2.
    at org.postgresql.core.v3.SimpleParameterList.bind(Si mpleParameterList.java:65)
    at org.postgresql.core.v3.SimpleParameterList.setStri ngParameter(SimpleParameterList.java:128)
    at org.postgresql.jdbc.PgPreparedStatement.bindString (PgPreparedStatement.java:1023)
    at org.postgresql.jdbc.PgPreparedStatement.setString( PgPreparedStatement.java:344)
    at org.postgresql.jdbc.PgPreparedStatement.setString( PgPreparedStatement.java:328)
    at Controller.searchController.doPost(searchControlle r.java:102)

    Hope someone can point out the error.

    You don't need to use setInt and setString since you have no parameters to pass with.

    String sql1 = "select tutor_id, subject_name from tutor_subject where subject_name in ("
                    + builder.deleteCharAt(builder.length() - 1) + ")";
     
            PreparedStatement ps2 = connection.prepareStatement(sql1);
     
            ResultSet rs = ps2.executeQuery();
            while (rs.next()) {
                System.out.println("tutor ID=" + rs.getInt("tutor_id") + ", subjectName=" + rs.getString("subject_name"));
            }
