jdbc-newbie

From

Date:
In order to run servlets, java.sql and javax.sql should be added to the
JDK2.0 package.
Postgres comes with its own jdbc interface (jdbc7.0-1.2.jar).
Are they all neded? What should be installed where?
Is there a URL where the full installation process is presented?

TIA,

Mihai

java.sql.* is part of the JDK so you don't have to add it to your
classpath..
You have to add the postgresql jar file and currently the JDBC driver
doesn't support javax.sql.* extensions as there is a missing class.  I'm
working on getting them to Peter to add them to CVS

For servlets, you simply need to copy postgresql.jar into the jre/lib/ext
directory.

java.sql is in the jdk, and javax.sql is in the enterprise edition. Unless
you are using the javax extensions you don't need them.

As for the docs, it's on www.postgresql.org
