JDBC Type 4 Driver Programmer's Reference

The JDBC class that manages drivers.
E
exception
An event during program execution that prevents the program from continuing normally;
generally, an error. Java methods raise exceptions using the throw keyword and handle
exceptions using try, catch, and finally blocks.
Expand
The NonStop Kernel operating system network that extends the concept of fault tolerance
to networks of geographically distributed NonStop systems. If the network is properly
designed, communication paths are constantly available even if there is a single line
failure or component failure.
expandability
See scalability.
F
fault tolerance
The ability of a computer system to continue processing during and after a single fault
(the failure of a system component) without the loss of data or function.
G
get() method
A method used to read a data item. For example, the
Connection.getAutoCommit() method returns the transaction mode of the JDBC
driver's connection to an SQL/MX database. Compare to set() method.
Guardian
An environment available for interactive and programmatic use with the NonStop Kernel.
Processes that run in the Guardian environment use the Guardian system procedure calls
as their API. Interactive users of the Guardian environment use the HP Tandem
Advanced Command Language (TACL) or another HP product's command interpreter.
