Interface DatabaseDriver

All Known Implementing Classes:

DatabaseDriver

public interface DatabaseDriver

The database driver interface. In order to write a database driver that works with the stored objects system, one of the tasks is to create a class that implements all the methods of this interface. The class should be packaged in a package like "com.storedobject.database.DDD" where DDD is the name of the database driver. For example, the Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise driver package is "com.storedobject.database.ase" and the Oracle driver package is "com.storedobject.database.oracle".
