JDBC Server Programmer's Reference

Compaq NonStop
TM
JDBC Server
Programmer's Reference
Is This Document for You?
The NonStop
TM
JDBC Server Programmer's Reference is for Java programmers who want to do remote (PC or UNIX
machine) development and debugging of applications that will be deployed on a Compaq NonStop
TM
Himalaya server to
access Compaq NonStop
TM
SQL databases.
This reference focuses on the NonStop JDBC Server 1.0, update 1, a Type 3 JDBC driver that uses Java Remote Method
Invocation (RMI) to communicate with Type 2 JDBC drivers on Compaq servers. To understand Type 2 JDBC drivers, read
the NonStop
TM
Server for Java Programmer's Guide.
NOTICE
Although it can be very useful for doing remote development of applications that access Compaq NonStop
TM
SQL/MP or Compaq NonStop
TM
SQL/MX databases, the NonStop JDBC Server is not intended, or supported, for
production use. Because of this, the NonStop JDBC Server is in Controlled Availability; you must obtain
permission from Compaq to use it.
This reference does not teach JDBC or Java programming in general or explain the Java Development Kit (JDK). For JDBC
information, see JDBC References. For JDK information, see the JDK documentation included on the Compaq NonStop
TM
Server for Java product CD.
The remainder of this reference covers the following topics:
