  • Subject: JDBC drivers are where ??
  • From: KirkG@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Per the link  http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/toolbox/faqjdbc.htm#faqA1


                   What JDBC drivers does IBM provide for the OS/400 database?


                    IBM provides two different JDBC drivers for the OS/400 database:

                         The "Native" JDBC driver. This is shipped as part of the AS/400 Developer Kit for Java (57xxJV1). It is implemented
                         by making native method calls to the SQL CLI (Call Level Interface). Consequently, it only runs on the OS/400 JVM.
                         The class name to register is com.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Driver . The URL subprotocol is db2 .

                         The "Toolbox" JDBC driver. This is shipped as part of the IBM Toolbox for Java (57xxJC1). It is implemented by
                         making direct socket connections to the database host server. This happens to be the same route that the Client
                         Access/400 ODBC driver takes. However, Client Access/400 is NOT required. The Toolbox runs on any JVM. The
                         class name to register is com.ibm.as400.access.AS400JDBCDriver . The URL subprotocol is as400 .


While I have both JC1 and JV1 installed on my 4.4 box only the second driver is where the data above shows. On my client's 4.5 box neither driver is at the above location. My box has the jdk 1.1.7 the 4.5 has 1.1.8 and 1.2 jdk's

I'm new to installing and using Java and JDBC so... who uses this, are there extra steps above installing JV1 or JC1 to get the JDBC drivers loaded and where do they end up?

Thanks
