Example: Importing and Exporting Data Through Local Files

When Java is used for secondary development based on GaussDB, you can use the CopyManager interface to export data from the database to a local file or import a local file to the database by streaming. The file can be in CSV or TEXT format.

The sample program is as follows. Load the driver before executing the sample code. For details about how to obtain and load the driver, see JDBC Package, Driver Class, and Environment Class.
