Oracle's JDBC Developer's Guide and Reference and Java Developer's
Guide should have plenty of information to get going on.
At $ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/demo is a demo.tar. Expand this and check out
JdbcCheckup.java under the generic folder. If you look at the included
Makefile, it will show you how to set up the classpath. Basically,
javac -classpath $ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib/classes12.jar:.
JdbcCheckup.java and then java -classpath
$ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib/classes12.jar:. JdbcCheckupup (for Java 1.2).
