[edit] Required External Libraries and/or Files for this Java Example
In order to run this Java example, one of the following libraries may be required: In order to run this example program, one of the following libraries may be required:
- MySQL JDBC driver. You can download it from MySQL Connector/J — for connecting to MySQL from Java
- Oracle JDBC driver. You can download it from JDBC driver for Oracle.
- MSSQL JDBC driver. There are several vendors provide JDBC driver for MSSQL, you should chose one of them:
- jTDS - SQL Server and Sybase JDBC driver. It is an open source JDBC 3.0 Type 4 driver for Microsoft SQL Server (6.5, 7.0, 2000 and 2005) and Sybase. jTDS is the fastest JDBC driver for MS SQL Server and is a complete implementation of the JDBC spec. You can download it from jTDS - SQL Server and Sybase JDBC driver
- MSSQL JDBC driver from Microsoft.
- JDBC driver for MSSQL 2000. You can download it from SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC Service Pack 3
- JDBC driver for MSSQL 2005. You can download it from Microsoft SQL Server 2005 JDBC Driver 1.2
- PostgreSQL JDBC driver. You can download it from PostgreSQL JDBC driver. It is a pure Java (Type IV) implementation.
- HSQLDB JDBC Driver. HSQLDB is the leading SQL relational database engine written in Java. It has a JDBC driver and supports a rich subset of ANSI-92 SQL plus SQL 99 and 2003 enhancements. You can download it from hsqldb.
