This method frees the Array object and releases the resources that it holds. The object is invalid once the free method is called.

After free has been called, any attempt to invoke a method other than free will result in a SQLException being thrown. If free is called multiple times, the subsequent calls to free are treated as a no-op.

Throws	SQLException: if an error occurs releasing the Array's resources
Throws	SQLFeatureNotSupportedException: if the JDBC driver does not support this method
since	1.6

Retrieves the contents of the SQL ARRAY value designated by this Array object in the form of an array in the Java programming language. This version of the method getArray uses the type map associated with the connection for customizations of the type mappings.

Note: When getArray is used to materialize a base type that maps to a primitive data type, then it is implementation-defined whether the array returned is an array of that primitive data type or an array of Object.

return	an array in the Java programming language that contains the ordered elements of the SQL ARRAY value designated by this Array object
Throws	SQLException: if an error occurs while attempting to access the array
Throws	SQLFeatureNotSupportedException: if the JDBC driver does not support this method
since	1.2

Retrieves the contents of the SQL ARRAY value designated by this Array object. This method uses the specified map for type map customizations unless the base type of the array does not match a user-defined type in map, in which case it uses the standard mapping. This version of the method getArray uses either the given type map or the standard mapping; it never uses the type map associated with the connection.

Note: When getArray is used to materialize a base type that maps to a primitive data type, then it is implementation-defined whether the array returned is an array of that primitive data type or an array of Object.

map	a java.util.Map object that contains mappings of SQL type names to classes in the Java programming language
return	an array in the Java programming language that contains the ordered elements of the SQL array designated by this object
Throws	SQLException: if an error occurs while attempting to access the array
Throws	SQLFeatureNotSupportedException: if the JDBC driver does not support this method
since	1.2

Retrieves a slice of the SQL ARRAY value designated by this Array object, beginning with the specified index and containing up to count successive elements of the SQL array. This method uses the type map associated with the connection for customizations of the type mappings.

Note: When getArray is used to materialize a base type that maps to a primitive data type, then it is implementation-defined whether the array returned is an array of that primitive data type or an array of Object.

index	the array index of the first element to retrieve; the first element is at index 1
count	the number of successive SQL array elements to retrieve
return	an array containing up to count consecutive elements of the SQL array, beginning with element index
Throws	SQLException: if an error occurs while attempting to access the array
Throws	SQLFeatureNotSupportedException: if the JDBC driver does not support this method

Retreives a slice of the SQL ARRAY value designated by this Array object, beginning with the specified index and containing up to count successive elements of the SQL array.

index	the array index of the first element to retrieve; the first element is at index 1
count	the number of successive SQL array elements to retrieve
map	a java.util.Map object that contains SQL type names and the classes in the Java programming language to which they are mapped
return	an array containing up to count consecutive elements of the SQL ARRAY value designated by this Array object, beginning with element index
Throws	SQLException: if an error occurs while attempting to access the array
Throws	SQLFeatureNotSupportedException: if the JDBC driver does not support this method
since	1.2

Retrieves the JDBC type of the elements in the array designated by this Array object.

return	a constant from the class java.sql.Types that is the type code for the elements in the array designated by this Array object
Throws	SQLException: if an error occurs while attempting to access the base type
Throws	SQLFeatureNotSupportedException: if the JDBC driver does not support this method
since	1.2

Retrieves the SQL type name of the elements in the array designated by this Array object. If the elements are a built-in type, it returns the database-specific type name of the elements. If the elements are a user-defined type (UDT), this method returns the fully-qualified SQL type name.

return	a String that is the database-specific name for a built-in base type; or the fully-qualified SQL type name for a base type that is a UDT
Throws	SQLException: if an error occurs while attempting to access the type name
Throws	SQLFeatureNotSupportedException: if the JDBC driver does not support this method
since	1.2

Retrieves a result set that contains the elements of the SQL ARRAY value designated by this Array object. If appropriate, the elements of the array are mapped using the connection's type map; otherwise, the standard mapping is used.

The result set contains one row for each array element, with two columns in each row. The second column stores the element value; the first column stores the index into the array for that element (with the first array element being at index 1). The rows are in ascending order corresponding to the order of the indices.

return	a ResultSet object containing one row for each of the elements in the array designated by this Array object, with the rows in ascending order based on the indices.
Throws	SQLException: if an error occurs while attempting to access the array
Throws	SQLFeatureNotSupportedException: if the JDBC driver does not support this method

Throws	SQLFeatureNotSupportedException: if the JDBC driver does not support this method
since	1.2

Retrieves a result set holding the elements of the subarray that starts at index index and contains up to count successive elements. This method uses the connection's type map to map the elements of the array if the map contains an entry for the base type. Otherwise, the standard mapping is used.

The result set has one row for each element of the SQL array designated by this object, with the first row containing the element at index index. The result set has up to count rows in ascending order based on the indices. Each row has two columns: The second column stores the element value; the first column stores the index into the array for that element.
