Here’s an example to show you how to connect to Oracle database via JDBC driver.
1. Download Oracle JDBC Driver
Get Oracle JDBC driver here – ojdbcxxx.jar
2. Java JDBC connection example
Code snippets to use JDBC to connect a Oracle database.
Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver"); Connection connection = null; connection = DriverManager.getConnection( "jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:javamyschool","username","password"); connection.close();
See a complete example below :
File : OracleJDBC.java
File : OracleJDBC.java
import java.sql.DriverManager; import java.sql.Connection; import java.sql.SQLException; public class OracleJDBC { public static void main(String[] argv) { System.out.println("-------- Oracle JDBC Connection Testing ------"); try { Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"); } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) { System.out.println("Where is your Oracle JDBC Driver?"); e.printStackTrace(); return; } System.out.println("Oracle JDBC Driver Registered!"); Connection connection = null; try { connection = DriverManager.getConnection( "jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:javamyschool", "username", "password"); } catch (SQLException e) { System.out.println("Connection Failed! Check output console"); e.printStackTrace(); return; } if (connection != null) { System.out.println("You made it, take control your database now!"); } else { System.out.println("Failed to make connection!"); } } }
2. Run it
Assume
OracleJDBC.java
is store in “C:\jdbc-test
” folder, together with Oracle JDBC driver (ojdbc6.jar), then run following commands :C:\jdbc-test>javac OracleJDBC.java C:\jdbc-test>java -cp c:\jdbc-test\ojdbc6.jar;c:\jdbc-test OracleJDBC -------- Oracle JDBC Connection Testing ------------ Oracle JDBC Driver Registered! You made it, take control your database now! C:\jdbc-test>
