You can study and implement the following examples to create a simple Java-based database-driven web application which makes use of JSP and Servlets applying a MVC (model-view-controller) principle.
Create the following files:
DatabaseConnection.java
package sample; import java.sql.*; public class DatabaseConnection { public static Connection getConnection() { Connection con = null; try { // change the following line to your jdbc driver Class.forName("com.borland.datastore.jdbc.DataStoreDriver"); // change this to "your database url", "username", "password" con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:borland:dslocal:C:\\a.jds","Sample",""); System.out.println(con); } catch (Exception ex) { ex.printStackTrace(); } return con; } }
