Hello Matthias, db2 and java fits together and maybe a friend of your question, but I agree with J.Antas. I'm also not a friend of java. Maybe you're having good reasons to use it. My opinion: Java is slow and expecially for database connections it has debendings under different operation systems so that the reason "java is platform independend" is partially correct. In your email you wrote the main trap of java: odbc. You'll hate this driver if you want to make a platform independend service! But sometimes I have in spite of my disagree some work to do with java. Java is not the evil but sometimes not the best choise! :-)
A good hint if you want to realize a dynamic web content without an existing database: There is a old idea of a non-sql-database with own programming language. Extremely fast, very small (about 400kByte), platform independend (linux, bsd and windows available) and for free. Go to http://www.tdbengine.org/ for details. It will depend what you want to realise, but it could give you a new idea of a delevlopment concept for dynamic web content on a simple provider without mysql or other common database support. You need cgi support! Hope this helps Robert > -----Urspr�ngliche Nachricht----- > Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Auftrag von > Matthias Niess > Gesendet: Freitag, 7.
