JSqlParser (4.6 Stable or 4.7 Snapshot)

Summary

Please visit the WebSite. JSqlParser is a RDBMS agnostic SQL statement parser. It translates SQL statements into a traversable hierarchy of Java classes (see Samples):

SELECT 1 FROM dual WHERE a = b

 SQL Text
  └─Statements: net.sf.jsqlparser.statement.select.Select
     └─selectBody: net.sf.jsqlparser.statement.select.PlainSelect
        ├─selectItems -> Collection<SelectExpressionItem>
        │  └─selectItems: net.sf.jsqlparser.statement.select.SelectExpressionItem
        │     └─LongValue: 1
        ├─Table: dual
        └─where: net.sf.jsqlparser.expression.operators.relational.EqualsTo
           ├─Column: a
           └─Column: b

Statement statement = CCJSqlParserUtil.parse(sqlStr);
if (statement instanceof Select) {
    Select select = (Select) statement;
    PlainSelect plainSelect = (PlainSelect) select.getSelectBody();

    SelectExpressionItem selectExpressionItem =
            (SelectExpressionItem) plainSelect.getSelectItems().get(0);

    Table table = (Table) plainSelect.getFromItem();

    EqualsTo equalsTo = (EqualsTo) plainSelect.getWhere();
    Column a = (Column) equalsTo.getLeftExpression();
    Column b = (Column) equalsTo.getRightExpression();
}

Supported Grammar and Syntax

JSqlParser aims to support the SQL standard as well as all major RDBMS. Any missing syntax or features can be added on demand.

JSqlParser can also be used to create SQL Statements from Java Code with a fluent API (see Samples).

Alternatives to JSqlParser?

General SQL Parser looks pretty good, with extended SQL syntax (like PL/SQL and T-SQL) and java + .NET APIs. The tool is commercial (license available online), with a free download option.
