Programmers usually use such a bridge when a given database lacks a JDBC driver, but is accessible through an ODBC driver. Sun Microsystems included one such bridge in the JVM, but viewed it as a stop-gap measure while few JDBC drivers existed (The built-in JDBC-ODBC bridge was dropped from the JVM in Java 8 [31]). Sun never intended its bridge ...
It uses JDBC to allow users to explore and interact with databases via a JDBC driver. It provides an editor that offers code completion and syntax highlighting for standard SQL . It also provides a plugin architecture that allows plugin writers to modify much of the application's behavior to provide database-specific functionality or features ...
PageAhead Software co-developed the first standards based ODBC driver with Microsoft in 1992, Simba.DLL. The first ODBC driver was included in Microsoft Windows 3.1, and has since been installed on over 30 million computers. [citation needed] ODBC is a widely used data access interface for relational database management systems RDBMS.
The ODBC driver needs to be installed on the client machine. Not suitable for applets, because the ODBC driver needs to be installed on the client. Specific ODBC drivers are not always available on all platforms; hence, portability of this driver is limited. No support from JDK 1.8 (Java 8).
MySQL Connector/ODBC, once known as MyODBC, is computer software from Oracle Corporation. It is an ODBC interface and allows programming languages that support the ODBC interface to communicate with a MySQL database.
Type 1 that calls native code of the locally available ODBC driver. (Note: In JDBC 4.2, JDBC-ODBC bridge has been removed [15]) Type 2 that calls database vendor native library on a client side. This code then talks to database over the network. Type 3, the pure-java driver that talks with the server-side middleware that then talks to the database.
FileMaker is a cross-platform relational database application developed by Claris International, a subsidiary of Apple Inc. It integrates a database engine with a graphical user interface and security features, allowing users to visually modify a database.
Within a week of the InterBase 6.0 source being released by Borland on 25 July 2000, [4] [5] the Firebird project was created on SourceForge. [6] [7] Firebird 1.0 was released for Linux, Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X on 11 March 2002, [8] with ports to Solaris, FreeBSD 4, HP-UX over the next two months.
