So the "Class.forName" call is ten times faster than the "DriverManager.registerDriver()" call? Is that one tenth of a sec vs a sec thing?
Class.forName loads the JDBC driver class, then the static initializer part of the JDBC driver registers itself with DriverManager. DriverManager can manage mutiple drivers, when using DriverManager it will load the property jdbc.driver from say "~/.hotjava/properties" if there is one. Also, one creates a new instances of the JDBC driver to register with DriverManager where Class.forName doesn't.

Is the DriverManager method slower than Class.forName()? -----Original Message----- Sent: Thursday, June 26, 2003 3:35 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hi List! I'm not a Java programer so please, forgive me my (blissful) ignorance. My developers are experiencing wild differences when connecting using driverManager.registerDriver vs. Class.forName (dynamic loading). Does anybody have any clue why is that? Any articles about registering vs. loading? Thanks!
