This page provides the following downloads and specifications:
JDBC 4.0 API Specification Final Release - JSR-000221
The JDBC 4.0 API Specification is now available for download.
JDBC RowSet Implementations 1.0.1 JWSDP 1.4 Co-Bundle
The JDBC RowSet Implementations 1.0.1 JWSDP 1.4 Co-Bundle builds around
the final specification of JSR-114 providing the reference
implementation, specification including a step by step tutorial to
educate developers on the best usage of JDBC RowSets. We also provider
demostration sampes and code to allow developers to immediately deploy
J2EE and WebServices enabled applications that use JDBC RowSet into the
Sun Java System Application Server PE, Tom Cat and Sun Java System Web
Server.
JDBC RowSet Implementations
The JDBC RowSet Implementations specification standardizes key RowSet
implementations defined in the JDBC 3.0 specification. This specification will
become part of Java 2 Standard Edition 5 when it is released.
JDBC 3.0 API
All of the JDBC 3.0 API, including both the java.sql and javax.sql packages, is bundled with the Java
2 Platform, Standard Edition, version 1.4 (J2SE). If you have downloaded the J2SE platform, you
already have all of the JDBC API and do not need to download anything from this page.
JDBC Optional Package for CDC/Foundation Profile API
If you write applications for the Java 2 Platform,
Micro Edition, J2ME that access a relational database, you need to download
this Optional Package. It is a subset of the java.sql
package with a smaller footprint that is tailored to writing
applications running CDC (Connected Device Configuration).
JDBC 2.1 Core API and JDBC 2.0 Optional Package API
General Application Programmers
If you write only client-side applications, you do not need
to download anything from this page. By downloading the
Java 2 SDK, Standard
Edition, you already have the JDBC core API (java.sql
package) and the associated javadoc documentation.
Server-side Programmers
If you write Enterprise JavaBeans
(EJB) components, any software that supports them, or any other
server-side software, you need to
download the Java 2 SDK, Enterprise
Edition. The Enterprise Edition includes both the JDBC core API and
the JDBC Optional Package API (the javax.sql package). Both
packages are necessary for any JDBC application that
uses a DataSource object to make a connection, uses connection
pooling, or uses distributed transactions.
Client-side Programmers Using a DataSource or
RowSet Object
In general, you might want to download the javax.sql
package in addition to the Java 2 SDK,
Standard Edition, if you do not write server-side code but want to
use one of the following:
- A
DataSource object to make a connection
Note: To use a DataSource object to establish a
connection, which is the recommended way,
your driver must include a basic DataSource implementation.
- A
RowSet object
Rowsets are typically used as a convenient way to pass data
or to add scrollability to a result set.
Downloading the javax.sql package instead of the entire
Enterprise Edition will save you disc space. If your driver
vendor bundles the javax.sql package with its product, as many
are expected to do, you do not need to download anything beyond the
Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition.
NOTE: The javax.sql package is also called the
JDBC 2.0 Optional Package API (formerly known as the
JDBC 2.0 Standard Extension API).

JDBC 2.0 Optional Package Source
|
This download contains the .java files for the javax.sql
package. These consist mainly of interfaces, and a few small helper
classes. The javax.sql package does not contain a JDBC driver,
and it does not contain a JDBC rowset implementation.

|
|
JDBC 2.0 Optional Package Binary
|
This download contains a compiled version (.class files) of the
javax.sql package. It is appropriate for inclusion in a classpath,
and may be added to a Java 2
installation.
