What is JSqlParser?

JSqlParser parses an SQL statement. Then the result can be accessed in a structured way. The generated Java class hierarchy can be navigated using the Visitor Pattern.

#Modifications JSqlParser is continuously improved. All modifications could be followed at the Release Notes. Additional News can be found here.

Modifications before GitHubs release tagging are listed in the [Older Releases](Older Releases) page.

How it works?

The parser is built using JavaCC. The core JavaCC grammar for SQL has been taken from Guido Draheim's site and has been changed in order to produce a hierarchy of Java classes. Over the time the grammar was extended and now is a combination of the grammars of various database systems. So some (not all) Oracle, MySql, SQLServer, PostgreSQL specific aspects can be parsed.

Maven

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.jsqlparser</groupId>
    <artifactId>jsqlparser</artifactId>
    <version>0.9</version>
</dependency>

Be sure you added the latest release.
