xample Java program:
//ConnectOracle.java
import java.sql.*;
class ConnectOracle {
public static void main(String args[]) {
try {
// Load the JDBC Driver
Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
// Create a connection
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(
"jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:orcl", "scott", "tiger");
// Create a statement for SQL query
Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
// Execute the query
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("select sysdate from dual");
while (rs.next()) {
System.out.println("Oracle Database current date is " + rs.getString(1));
}
// Close the connection object
con.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(e);
}
}
