Oracle Database Connection

  Asked By: Madeline    Date: Jul 27    Category: Java    Views: 752
  

I just started to learn Java. I have a specific need
to create a java program where I will be able to pass values to the
program and have it query an Oracle database returning a value.

I am writing this program to run on a Windows 2000 server and this
Oracle Database resides on the server as well but I will have a need
to have the Java program query an Oracle database on an Unix server
too.

What is the best way to connect to the Oracle database? ODBC
connection?

in java  use JDBC; Oracle has developed its own native JDBC drivers,
so they should in any case give better performance than the JDBC-ODBC
bridge together with an ODBC connection  to Oracle.
One gotcha: I've never worked with ODBC or JDBC, but the use of JDBC
is that it provides a native Java interface to _all_ kinds of
databases (as long as they provide a JDBC interface as well).
