JDBC in Eclipse

Question

Hi,
I�m trying to create my first application using JDBC in eclipse. Even I know the language used to create and manipulate tables, I�m having some difficults to acess the driver
I tried this(I saw in the tutorial):
public void stabilishConection()
          try
               Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
               con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:file");
          catch(Exception e)
               System.out.println(e.getMessage());
     }I�m usgin Eclipse 3.0 and I didn�t download any driver. When I type sun.jdbc and press ctrl+c, it shows the address that I put in Class.forName(). Though, when I run the program it always throws the exception...
Also, I�d like to know if the file in the getConnection is created automatically or not....

Answer 1

m using Eclipse 3.0 & now i written one programm that
is interract with JDBC API and It is loading
Type1(sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver) ,I want to
connect to Oracle 8i. When m executing the programm,
It is giving exceptions as
sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver is not existed.That driver is a part of the JDK libraries.
I did't attached any JAR files. Please give the
the stps & attachements of JAR files to work with
Eclipse3.0, M using JDK1.5I would suggest you to use the Oracle thin driver and attach the JAR for that to your project. The Type 1 JDBC-ODBC driver has some limitations.
