New version of jdbc driver

Hi JDBC Dev. Team,
I heard a rumour recently that Oracle are going to employ programmers from Sun to rewrite the JDBC implementation - is this true?
Also, when will the JDBC implementation be reduced to an acceptable size (<500Kb)?
regards,
Alexander

Pity that the rumour has no foundation. Thanks for the quick response though. I appreciate that.
As for the size, well, from the very start Oracle has made mention of the fact that their JDBC driver was small enough to be downloaded by an applet (see original JDBC documentation which apparently hasn't been updated in lieu of the new MEGA sized JDBC driver).
I, of course, want to use it with applets/applications as I am a firm believer that HTML interfaces are insufficient and that people will return to Java GUI's. Given that Java has a fantastic GUI API it is logical that people will want to make use of it in the future. I do, that's for sure. However, it is not an option to download a 1.7 Mb JDBC driver in an applet - it is really rather exhorbitant! Would be interesting to hear what ORacle themselves think of their JDBC driver.
Anyway, I will either have to use RMI/CORBA or someone else's JDBC driver...
thanks for your response,
alexander

  • How to find out the version of JDBC driver in Java?

    Hi all,
    I would like to use Java to find out the version of JDBC driver that I currently use. That JDBC driver is from Oracle and the filename is "classes12.zip" for all version ( 8.1.x to 9.x ). Is any method to verify what version JDBC I currently use? Thanks a lot.

  • How to register a new list of JDBC driver to ODI?

    Hi Guys,
    How to register a new list of JDBC driver to appear on ODI?
    exam :
    When I defined a new master repository that resides on MSSQL 2005
    I already had sqljdbc.jar (This is mssql2005 jdbc driver) on the ..\oracledi\drivers
    But when I browsed jdbc driver list it will not appear any new driver we just put them in the driver folder.
    I knew this is a common issue.
    So I need to manually define a driver class and url to match exactly with the jdbc document say for sqljdbc.jar
    which is
    Driver Class : com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
    URL : jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1084
    I think that the driver list will have to store in somewhere in the xml files OR some records on the master repository database.
    But where ?
    Because I saw the new list driver (Microsoft SQL Server 2005 driver for JDBC) on the vmware image that I had (actually it is ODI Training workshop VMware Image).
    But I don't know where to looks.
    Here are some proof that they actually appear in the driver list
    [Original MSSQL 2000 Driver List|http://img.ihere.org/uploads/1f6d1601bb.png]
    [New MSSQL 2005 Driver List|http://img.ihere.org/uploads/94cc91e1ac.png]
    How comes?

    Hi CTS !
    Then, its impossible add new drivers into ODI ? So, if I need to add a driver and this exist in Oracle list drivers, what can I do in this case ?
    I have problems with Oracle JDBC driver in ODI. When I try generate web services the "Not suitable driver" message is shown. In Design, module part, when i generate web service i have the "*name of data source*" field and I put into "oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver". Ok, this isn&acute;t a correct sintax, then I read in this manual "*note that the name of the data source must be consistent with the entries in context.xml and web.xml, prefixed with:java:/comp/env/*".
    Ok, In other post (Re: Not found web.xml and content.xml files into ODI folders
    you said me only necessary to change the web.xml and context.xml is only necessary if I use Tomcat. Then, how to discover a correct sintax to put into this field and generate my web service ?
    Best regards,
    Joao.

  • Wrong version 9i JDBC Driver 9.2.0.1 (now 9.0.2.0) on the download page?

    Dear Webmaster,
    The Manifest.mf file in the JDBC 9.2.0.1 package declares that the driver is 9.0.2.0.
    Could it be that this package contains an older version (9.0.2.0) of the JDBC Driver?

  • Satellite Pro M30: Need new version of display driver

    It is so frustrating!!! How is that possible?!?
    The display driver (nvidia fx 5200 go) is so old - according to the device manager the driver date is 08/28/2003 and the version is 45.56 while the current driver in NVIDIA site is 84.21?!?
    And there is no new driver in the Toshiba site and you can't install the one from nvidia, as they say that FX 5200 go is not supported and that we have to download a driver from the notebook manufacturer which is obviously impossible!
    Did anybody find a solution to that problem?

    Hi Valentin,
    I had a similar situation with my A30 which was preventing me from playing several games. As you will discover, it is virtually impossible to load the latest drivers from the maufacturers website (ATI or NVIDIA) so I resorted to the OMEGA drivers from http://www.omegadrivers.net/ to see if they would work.
    The Omega drivers loaded perfectly and have been working without any problems for the last few months. I can even play the games that the original Toshiba drivers would not support.
    I accept that there is a potential risk of the graphics chip over-heating but so far I have not suffered any ill-effects.

  • How to remove and then add new version of network driver on Local IPS repo

    Hi
    I have create a local repo of IPS on my system for solaris 11.1
    I have a network driver package ,now i wan to update this new driver in local IPS repo,so while doing installion on client through PXE,i will get this latest driver.
    These is some issue with old network driver,so i need to upgrade this driver.
    Please let me know the steps
    Thanks in advance

    If you're needing to use this driver during the installation then you'll need to create a custom AI image as described in the documentation at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01/html/E21800/index.html. If you only need this driver post-installation then you just need to add the package (and its repository, assuming it's in a separate repository) to the AI manifest used for the client.

  • Supported versions of JDBC driver?

    Does anyone know what JDBC drivers are considered supported and which ones are considered EOL?
    With the release of 4.0 is 3.0 now considered EOL?  How about 2.0?

  • How to deploy MS Sql Server 2005 and 2008 jdbc driver

    Hi SAP Guru's
    Can somebody tell me how to deploy the jdbc driver of MS SQL Server 2005 and 2008 on SDM.
    According to the SAP instruction we should have 3 files(mssqlserver.jar,msbase.jar,msutil.jar) but in 2005 driver file we only have 1 file i.e sqljdbc.jar so how do i deploy it .
    Secondly i cannot deploy it on visual administrator as well and when i am doing the File to jdbc scenarion i am getting this error
    " Accessing database connection "jdbc.sqlserver://localhost:1433;DatabaseName=Employee failed DriverManagerException. Cannot establish connection to URL jdbc.sqlserver://localhost:1433;DatabaseName=Employee  SAPClassNotFoundException com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver".
    can somebody please upload the screen shots on mediafire or any other site so that i will solve my problem.

    Hello,
    *OS: First of all: *
    3 files (msbase.jar,mssqlserver.jar and msutility.jar )should be zipped to aii_af_jmsproviderlib.zip file only for UNIX OS.
    For Windows OS only sqljdbc.jar file which in every version of JDBC driver should be zipped to aii_af_jmsproviderlib.zip.

  • JDBC Driver 10.1.0.2.0 versus BC4J

    I tried to use Oracle JDBC Driver 10.1.0.2.0 with BC4J (JDeveloper 9.0.3.4), due to some bugs inside 9.0.1.4.
    But I meet some error:
    oracle.jbo.AttributeLoadException: JBO-27021: Selhalo nactení hodnoty CustomDatum na indexu 1 s objektem java typu oracle.jbo.domain.Number z duvodu java.sql.SQLException.
    (This error never occurred before with older version of JDBC driver.)
    Can be BC4J used with newer version of Oracle JDBC Driver? Is some combinations guaranteed? Have you any experiences with newer version of JDBC Driver?
    Thank you very much for any hints.
    Jan

    Rob,
    I hunted through the docs and can't seem to find which JDBC drivers are certified -- I hope I'm missing something.
    My case is that our client is forcing a move from the 9iAS 9.0.3 line using 8.1.7.4 database to Caucho Resin. They use the 9.2.0.4 DB version now and use that version of the JDBC driver on their Resin app server. They recommend the OCI (non-thin) version -- however, we are having trouble with that when updating the PS_TXN table.
    (getting java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00001: unique constraint (FISTSPROD2.PS_TXN_PK) violated
    ORA-06512: at line 1)
    Anyway, it would be great if I could find certification lists matrices for JDev/BC4J versions: 9.0.3.4, 9.0.4 and 9.0.5.1 to see which ones are compatible with the target JDBC driver. They are currently using the 9.2.0.4 (OCI) in Windows, given their belief that the OCI driver is more reliable in their RAC configuration.
    Metalink doesn't seem to have it on the certification and the JDev docs prior to 9.0.5.1 are not as clear (from what I can see).
    I'm trying to use whichever JDev gets me there the easiest...
    Thanks,

As always, if you have ANY reason to be suspicious of a site you're visiting, then you have reason the be suspicious of what it may want to store on your system but for the most part, Flash data is video "buffering" content and nothing more.

    I have set the classpath i.e classes111.zip. This function is to insert record to a database having blob field.
    Waiting for a quick response.

    java.lang.AbstractMethodErrorIn jdbc that often occurs because you are using a newer version of JDBC (the jvm) and an older driver. It occurs because you called a method which exists in the newer JDBC but does not exist in the older driver.
    getBlob() was introduced in java 1.2, so it was not in JDBC 1.0.

    D.use JNDI to locate the Driver

    Hi pilotjoe,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having some issues with getting the printer reinstalled back on to your xp computer.
    I do have a few steps that we can try in the attempt to resolve this issue.
    First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    If you have the printer connected to the computer with a usb cable, please remove the cable from both pc and printer and leave it disconnected until further notice.
    The next link that I am going to give you is the All-in-One Software Removal Utility.
    Once the removal is complete, please restart the computer so that all the changes take affect.
    The next link I have for you is the HP Officejet and PSC Full Feature Software and Driver.  Save this download to the Desktop of the computer so that it creates its own icon.  This will make it easy for us to find once the download is complete. 
    Double click the new icon and follow the installation instructions.  You will be prompted as to when to connect the usb cable so please do not connect it before hand.
    Let me know if you have any other questions.
    Cheers,
