Testing the JDBC Client Installation

Before writing any code to create an IP, you should test basic OpenAccess SDK operations. Testing uses an OpenAccess SDK Client to connect to a default data source and issue test queries.

Make sure the service associated with the programming language and SQL engine you want to use has been started.

If you are using the OpenAccess SDK SQL engine, the Default server data source is used with one of the following services:

• OpenAccessSDK900_C
• OpenAccessSDK900_Java
• OpenAccessSDK900_NET

If you are using a third-party SQL engine, the Default server data source is used with one of the following services:

• The OpenAccessSDK900_C_SQL service is partially set up to access a SQL data source through an ODBC driver.
• The OpenAccessSDK900_Java_SQL service is partially set up to access a SQL data source through a JDBC driver.

Refer to the OpenAccess SDK Administrator’s Guide for details on how to start the service.
