If you need to access a database with Java, you need a driver. This is a list of the drivers available, what database they can access, who makes it, and how to contact them.

To test your driver once it's installed, try the following code: { Class.forName("Driver name"); Connection con = DriverManager.getConnenction("jdbcurl","username","password"); //other manipulation using jdbc commands } catch(Exception e) { }
JDBC ODBC BridgeNative API Partly Java DriverNet Protocol full Java driverare some types of jdbc drivers
There are more than one JDBC drivers for Microsoft SQL Server. Each one has a different driver name.
JDBC is short for java database connectivity. There are 4 type of JDBC drivers : 1) JDBC-ODBC 2) Native-API 3) JDBC-Net 4) Native-Protocol.
JDBC - ODBC bridge
JDBC driver is an interface enabling a java application to interact with a database. To connect with individual database, JDBC requires drivers for each database.
JDBC Driver Manager is a class that manages a list of database drivers. It matches connection requests from the java application with the proper database driver using communication sub protocol.
Actually coming to this one, we need to discuss about those companies which are invented the java(Sun Micro System) and database(Oracle), in olden days these companies were tie up that time, so that's why we are accessing the database with application program written in java. now coming to our topic, We need to select the suitable drivers to our application(Desktop or Web Application) load the drivers through application. Those drivers are JDBC drivers, JDBC is nothing but pool of drivers in which some drivers are default in Windows OS, when ever we create the DATABASE Application like ORACLE, then automatically drivers are also included in JDBC.
General JDBC Architecture consist of two layers: JDBC API - this provides the application to JDBC manager connection. JDBC driver API - this supports the JDBC manager to driver connection.
Call java.sql.DriverManager.loadDriver("postgresql");.
I'm not sure that JDBC is supported for that Version of Oracle. I would recomend installing at least ORACLE 8.1.7 , referrably Oracle 9iR2 Check the following for JDBC drivers for 8.1.7 http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/htdocs/jdbc817.html
Yes. In Java this is done through the JDBC classes.Yes. In Java this is done through the JDBC classes.Yes. In Java this is done through the JDBC classes.Yes. In Java this is done through the JDBC classes.
JDBC comes as part of the standard JDK & JRE set up.
