You could always find some vendor specific class and try
Class.forName("vendorClass").  If you get an exception this would mean
that it's not the vendor you are checking....

Hi,
   Is there a way to find out the type of application server
for example: Weblogic, JBOSS or Web Server, at runtime from code ?

Some sort of Application Server Metadata will help.

   I am adding LOB support for Application Server. As the
weblogic needs special JDBC Oralce extension for Oralce Thin driver (for
retrieving LOB) , I need
to cast the proper class at run time for different application Servers.

Any suggestions ?

  Also, an related question: Does JBOSS or WebSphere need JDBC extensions
for Oracle Thin Driver ?
  Some example or some pointers are appreciated


Thanks


Chester
