Hi...
JDBC: JDBC is a specification which allows the developers to communicating from front end(java) to back end(oracle,sybase...).
The standard steps to connecting the database as follows:
try{
1: Loading the drivers
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
2:Getting the connection
Connection con=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:datasourcename","scott","tiger");
3:Create the Statement
Statement st=con.createStatement();
4:Execute the Statement
ResultSet rs=st.executeQuery("select * from emp");
5:Accessing the data from the backend
while(rs.next())
System.out.println(rs.getString(1));
System.out.println(rs.getInt(2));
System.out.println(rs.getString(3));
6:close the connection
}catch(SQLException se)
{ se.printStackTrace();
}
finally{
con.close();
rs.close();
st.close();
}
