RE: Java Help
I don't know why you would use Java to connect to a db using ODBC; you would have to use a Type I driver and they are notoriously inefficient, thanks to M$uck's proprietary intransigence. Regardless, buy a copy of White, et al, JDBC API Tutorial and Reference, 2d ed. (Addison Wesley 1999).

RE: Java Help
Or, even better, cheaper, with a better ROI: learn to help yourself. Try checking out http://java.sun.com -- look for the links that say tutorial or api.

RE: Java Help
Zille, following would be the rough steps that you'd have to do for accessing from a normal java class... 1. set the jdbc.drivers property of the system to the full path name of the driver 2. Call the getConnection method of the DriverManager class by passing the URL of the database however if you are planning to access the DB from inside a web application, it is advisable to create a data source corresponding to the database in the server and access the same using JNDI. something like Context ctx = new InitialContext(); DataSource ds = (DataSource) ctx.lookup(java:comp/env/jdbc/myDataSource); conn = ds.getConnection(); where myDataSource is the data source name that you provided while creating the JNDI entry... hope this helps ansu -Original Message- From: Zille Hassan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 07, 2003 1:53 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Java Help Hey Guys really new to this java stuff So can someone tell me how do I connect to my DB using ODBC All I remember is Class.forName(sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbc:) So how do I connect to my DB guys Regds Zille - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
