RE: JDBC Problems

["Clapham, Paul" <pclapham@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm not so sure about that.  The compiler message says you can't convert
from java.sql.Connection to Connection, so I don't think an explicit cast
will help.  Anyway, I never have to do that in my SQL programs.

The question is:  If the compiler thinks Connection is not
java.sql.Connection, then what is it?  Sounds like there's another unrelated
Connection class kicking around in the classpath.

Duh!... as he hits himself for not reading...Try

 conn = (Connection) java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection
("jdbc:as400://KITS01");

and do the cast explicitly.  You are getting a compiler error correct?  Not
a run time exception?

When I do the try (as in this email)
I get the same error: cannot convert from java.sql.Connection to
Connection.
I use Visual Age for Java 1.1
