JAVA Connection The following uses a ‘bridge’ between Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) and ODBC, namely sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver Supplied with the JAVA SDK. ‘Aspdatatest’ is a system DSN which contains connection information for the database.

import java.sql.*; public class CreateCoffees { public static void main(String args[]) { String url = "jdbc:odbc:aspdatatest"; Connection con; String createString; createString = "create table COFFEES " + "(COF_NAME VARCHAR(32), " + "SUP_ID INTEGER, " + "PRICE FLOAT, " + "SALES INTEGER, " + "TOTAL INTEGER)"; Statement stmt; try { Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver"); } catch(java.lang.ClassNotFoundException e) { System.err.print("ClassNotFoundException: "); System.err.println(e.getMessage()); }

try { con = DriverManager.getConnection(url, "u0000667", "rspb"); stmt = con.createStatement(); stmt.executeUpdate(createString); stmt.close(); con.close(); } catch(SQLException ex) { System.err.println("SQLException: " + ex.getMessage()); } }}
