Loading a class at runtime

Question

I have some code which loads the class at runtime:

Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");

But there seems to be issues with this and IKVM - I was wondering if there were any alternative ways to achieve the above in my Java program or if anyone knew on why that might cause issued with ikvm?

Thanks

sorry - i didnt no how to find out, its taken me ages to get this far! This is caught in the Exception e catch statement and i am pretty sure its thrown by the line posted above

Answer 1

Different database format and JDBC driver, but it will work for you with slight modification for oracle and oracle driver (full Namespaces for clarity purposes):

java.lang.Class.forName(typeof(org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver).AssemblyQualifiedName);
java.sql.DriverManager.registerDriver(new org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver());
conn = java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(url, username, password);

Answer 2

It's the first time I hear about ikvm, but I will try to help.

First, another way to load the JDBC driver is with

DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());

Anyhow, I have read in the ikvm website that you have to convert your JARs to DLLs using the command ikvmc. Did you already convert the Oracle driver JAR to a DLL? And:are you sure you have make the classes in this JAR/DLL available to the program? (Whatever equivalent there is for the Java classpath)

Hope that helps!
