28 Chapter 2 Using DataDirect Connect for JDBC Drivers
Connecting Through the JDBC Driver Manager
One way of connecting to a database is through the JDBC Driver
Manager, using the DriverManager.getConnection method. This
method uses a string containing a URL. The following code shows
an example of using the JDBC Driver Manager to connect to
Microsoft SQL Server while passing the user name and password:
Class.forName("com.ddtek.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver");
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection
("jdbc:datadirect:sqlserver://server1:1433;User=test;Password=secret");
URL Examples
The complete connection URL format used with the Driver
Manager is:
jdbc:datadirect:drivername://hostname:port[;property=
value...]
where:
drivername
hostname
port
property=value
