Which Oracle JDBC driver should I use in applets?

John Zukowski

Oracle basically has two JDBC drivers: an OCI driver which includes native code and a Thin driver which is 100% Pure Java. Since the OCI driver includes native code, it cannot be used in applets. You must use thin driver. You can get all Oracle JDBC drivers from http://technet.oracle.com/software/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/software_index.htm.
