After setting the CLASSPATH, the required connection information needs to be passed in the form of a connection URL.

jdbc:datadirect:oracle://hostname:port[;property=value[;...]]

where:

hostname
is the IP address or host name of the server to which you are connecting. See "Using IP addresses" for details on using IP addresses.
port
is the number of the TCP/IP port.
property=value
specifies connection properties. For a list of connection properties and their valid values, see "Connection property descriptions".

Notes

  • Untrusted applets cannot open a socket to a machine other than the originating host.
  • You can specify connection properties using tnsnames.ora files too. See "Using tnsnames.ora files" for more information.

Example

Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection
 ("jdbc:datadirect:oracle://server3:1521;SID=ORCL;User=test;Password=secret");
