Accessing MSSQL Server Database Transaction Log via JDBC

Wanting to access the transaction log, I found that dbcc is a god way to do it via the SQL Query Analyzer. However, programatically via jdbc, I was curious whether the same command will work returning a result set. It turned out to be nothing to access the transaction log using dbcc and the MSSQLServer's jdbc driver. I added three jar files in the classpath: msbase.jar, mssqlserver.jar, msutil.jar and started writing the program :

import java.sql.Connection; import java.sql.DriverManager; import java.sql.ResultSet; import java.sql.ResultSetMetaData; import java.sql.SQLException; import java.sql.Statement; public class TestMSQLServer {   public static void testDBCC() {     String DRIVER =         "com.microsoft.jdbc."             + "sqlserver.SQLServerDriver";     String DBURL =         "jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver: "             + "//localhost:1433;";     Connection connection = null;     Statement stmt = null;     ResultSet rs = null;     ResultSetMetaData metadata = null;     try {       Class.forName(DRIVER);       connection =           DriverManager.getConnection(DBURL,               "sa", "sa");       stmt = connection.createStatement();       rs =           stmt               .executeQuery("dbcc log (master,2)");       metadata = rs.getMetaData();       int noOfColumns =           metadata.getColumnCount();       int noOfDashes = 0;       for (int i = 1; i <= noOfColumns; i++) {         String columnName =             metadata.getColumnName(i);         System.out.print(columnName + "\t");         noOfDashes +=             (columnName.length() + 4);       }       System.out.println();       for (int i = 0; i < noOfDashes; i++) {         System.out.print("-");       }       System.out.println();       while (rs.next()) {         for (int i = 1; i <= noOfColumns; i++) {           System.out.print(rs               .getObject(metadata                   .getColumnName(i))               + "\t");         }         System.out.println();       }     } catch (Exception e) {       e.printStackTrace();     } finally {       try {         if (rs != null) {           rs.close();         }         if (stmt != null) {           stmt.close();         }         if (connection != null) {           connection.close();         }       } catch (SQLException e) {         e.printStackTrace();       }     }   }   public static void main(String[] args) {     testDBCC();   } }
