/**
* Callback interface used by {@link JdbcTemplate}'s query methods.
* Implementations of this interface perform the actual work of extracting
* results from a {@link java.sql.ResultSet}, but don't need to worry
* about exception handling. {@link java.sql.SQLException SQLExceptions}
* will be caught and handled by the calling JdbcTemplate.
*
* <p>This interface is mainly used within the JDBC framework itself.
* A {@link RowMapper} is usually a simpler choice for ResultSet processing,
* mapping one result object per row instead of one result object for
* the entire ResultSet.
*
* <p>Note: In contrast to a {@link RowCallbackHandler}, a ResultSetExtractor
* object is typically stateless and thus reusable, as long as it doesn't
* access stateful resources (such as output streams when streaming LOB
* contents) or keep result state within the object.
