JDBC in the database features

The version of JDBC that you can use from Java in the database is determined by the JDK version that the database is set up to use.

If your database is initialized with JDK 1.2 or JDK 1.3, you can use the JDBC 2.0 API.

For information on upgrading databases to JDK 1.2 or JDK 1.3, see ALTER DATABASE statement or Upgrading a database using the dbupgrad command-line utility.
If your database is initialized with JDK 1.1, you can use JDBC 1.2 features. The internal JDBC driver for JDK 1.1 (asajdbc) makes some features of JDBC 2.0 available from server-side Java applications, but does not provide full JDBC 2.0 support.

For more information, see Using JDBC 2.0 features from JDK 1.1 databases.
