Class OracleDatabase

java.lang.Object
  de.hpi.fgis.dude.database.adapter.Database
      de.hpi.fgis.dude.database.adapter.OracleDatabase

All Implemented Interfaces:

AutoJsonable

public class OracleDatabase
extends Database

OracleDatabase encapsulates all the necessary information for establishing a connection to an Oracle database.

CAUTION! This Database implementation can be used with Oracle's Thin drivers only (if you are using OCI drivers, you will have to implement your own Database adapter class). DuDe cannot offer this library due to licensing issues. In order to connect DuDe with an Oracle database, you have to download the library and add it to your classpath manually. The driver can be found on the following homepage: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/jdbc-112010-090769.html

Be aware of that this class does only support the JDBC Thin driver!
