Removal of JDBC ODBC bridge in java 8

by

We can still use JDBC-ODBC Bridge in java 8 too, just follow this simple recipe:

  1. Download a JDK 7 or JRE 7.
  2. Goto JRE\lib folder and find the rt.jar
  3. Unzip it (if you have WinRAR or 7zip installed) or you can rename it to rt.zip and unzip it.

  4. Copy sun\jdbc and sun\security\action folders out, keep the folder structure. i.e., you should have the folder structure like below:

    Sun --> Security --> Action
    --> JDBC

  5. Open a CMD window. Go to the parent folder of Sun folder. Run the command: jar -cvf jdbc.jar sun

  6. The above command will create a file named jdbc.jar
  7. Copy JDBC.jar to your JDK8 or JRE8 lib folder. If that doesn’t work try the lib\ext folder.
  8. Copy jdbcodbc.dll from JRE\bin of your JRE 7 installation to JRE\bin of your JRE 8 installation.
  9. Restart your JVM.
