RE: sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver not supported on 5.1.2 ?

Paul,

I seem to remember reading somewhere that the classes in packages that start
with sun.* are unsupported and are not really intended for production use as
they may be dropped at any time, so you might want to check that out

I believe WAS 5.1 uses jdk 1.4 

cheers

Subject: [WDSCI-L] sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver not supported on 5.1.2 ?


Hi,

I tried this message with another subject recently, but I still didn't get
any further, hence this attempt.

I have two PC's, one running WDSC AE 5.1.1, the other one WDSC AE 5.1.2.

The problem is now that on the new one, I always get a class not found
exception on Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver"); when being used
in a servlet (the same runs fine as Java application on both).  The code on
both PC's is exactly the same (even that one line is enough to test it).

Since it works as Java application, it looks like the included Websphere
Express v5.1 Test environment no longer supports the bridge (which I used
locally with MS-Access to test my application), but I can't find any reason
why not, and how to eventually fix it.

Kind regards,
Paul
