jdbc hello world

8 Replies

I am in a java mood today, let’s check how to print hello world with jdbc :)

import java.sql.*;
public class HelloWorld {
  public  static void main(String[] args) throws SQLException {
    DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver());
    ResultSet res = DriverManager.
      getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@srv1:1521:DB01", "scott", "tiger").
      prepareCall("select 'Hello World' txt from dual").
      executeQuery();
    res.next();
    System.out.println(res.getString("TXT"));
  }
}

let’s compile
javac -classpath $ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib/classes12.jar HelloWorld.java

and run

$ java -classpath $ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib/classes12.jar:. HelloWorld
Hello World

that’s all folks!

11.1.0.7 is the latest patchset for 11gR1

You will get CPU and even PSU (Patch Set Updates are proactive cumulative patches comprised of recommended bug fixes that are released on a regular and predictable schedule)

But no more patchset. This the first time I see a release with only 1 pachset.

Well, if you use Linux, you can go to 11gR2. Otherwise you may better stick to 10.2.0.4 for a few more months

11.1.0.7 is the last patch set for Release 11.1

cd OLD NEW

8 Replies

Something I like in ksh is to change from /my/old/directory/path to /my/new/directory/path by typing cd old new. This does not work in bash

So I had to find a workaround ;) 


$ ksh
$ cd /app/oracle/product/11.1.0.6/database/rdbms/admin
$ cd 6 7
$ pwd 
/app/oracle/product/11.1.0.7/database/rdbms/admin
$ bash
$ cd 7 6
bash: cd: 7: No such file or directory
$ c() { cd ${PWD/$1/$2}; }
$ c 7 6
$ pwd
/app/oracle/product/11.1.0.6/database/rdbms/admin

CONNECT no longer has CREATE VIEW, what’s next?

2 Replies

In my current project we are going to move from 9i to 10g really soon. One of the typical issue is to get the right privileges, because the schema owners typically had only CONNECT and RESOURCE, and that does no longer include CREATE VIEW in 10gR2.

I was just reading the 11gR2 readme today :
7.2 UNLIMITED TABLESPACE Privilege Changes
The UNLIMITED TABLESPACE system privilege will be removed from the RESOURCE role in a future Oracle Database release (reference Bug 7614645).

So, probably I should ask for TABLESPACE quotas before we go to 12g ;)

This will be a killer in the Oracle forums ;)
