            throws SQLException
ExecuteQuery will attempt execute the query passed to it against the existing database connection. If no connection exists then no action is taken. The results from the query are extracted and cached locally, thus applying an upper limit on how many rows can be retrieved successfully.
Parameters:
con - the connection the query is to be executed against
query - the query to be executed

executeQuery

public void executeQuery(String query)
            throws SQLException
