Simple Java program using JDBC to access an Omnidex Environment

Step 1 - Create the JAVA program to test JDBC Connect

/** Java Program to test a connection to the Omnidex
 *  JDBC driver.
 *	Make sure OdxNet is running
 *	Create a JDBC Datasource file with DSEDIT.
 *	Make sure there is a path setting to the Omnidex bin directory.
*/
import java.io.*;
import java.sql.*;
public class OdxTestConnection 
{
  static public void main(String args[]) 
  {
    Connection odxconnection = null;
	try 
	{ 
	   Class.forName("omnidex.jdbc.OdxJDBCDriver");
	}
	catch ( ClassNotFoundException ce ) 
	{ 
	  ce.printStackTrace();
	  return;
	}
	try 
	{
	   odxconnection = DriverManager.getConnection
	     ("jdbc:omnidex:c:\\dev\\odx\\tiny\\tiny.dsn");
	  System.out.println("Omnidex JDBC Connection successful!");
	  // Do SELECTS here
	}
	catch (SQLException e) 
	{
      e.printStackTrace();
    }
    finally 
	{
      if (odxconnection != null ) 
	  {
          try { odxconnection.close(); }
		  catch( SQLException e ) 
		  {
		    e.printStackTrace();
	      }
	  }
	}
  } // end main	 
} //end class

Step 2 Run OdxNet

  • Under Windows, open a console window
  • Run OdxNet
  • OdxNet will default to listening on PORT 7555.

Step 3 Create an Omnidex Datasource File

Step 4 Compile the JAVA application

Before compiling the java source program, make sure the following:

  • A path exists to the Omnidex.jar file containing the Omnidex JDBC driver.
C:\dev\java>javac OdxTestConnection.java

Step 5 Run and test the JAVA applications

Step 6 Add Test SQL SELECT Statement

/** Omnidex JDBC Example: Simple Select 
*/
import java.io.*;
import java.sql.*;
 
public class OdxSimpleSelect {
 
public OdxSimpleSelect() { }
 
// Main 
public static void main(String[] args){
 
// Declare JDBC objects 
  Connection odxconn = null;
  Statement odxstmt = null;
  ResultSet odxrs = null;
 
// Register the Omnidex JDBC driver 
try{Class.forName("omnidex.jdbc.OdxJDBCDriver");}
catch(ClassNotFoundException ce) 
{
  System.out.println("Driver error: " + ce);
  System.exit(0);
}
// Connect to the Omnidex Environment Catalog via a File DataSource
// DISC recommends using a connection string instead of a data source.
try
{
  odxconn = DriverManager.getConnection
	     ("jdbc:omnidex:c:\\dev\\odx\\tiny\\tiny.dsn");
}
catch(SQLException se) 
{
  System.out.println("Connect error: " + se);
  System.exit(0);
}
 
// The SQL statement to be executed 
String sql = "select * from table1 where mytext = 'bears'";
try
{
  odxstmt = odxconn.createStatement();
  odxstmt.execute(sql);
  odxrs = odxstmt.getResultSet();
 
// Print the results from the Result Set returned after the Select
  while(odxrs.next())
  {
    System.out.print(odxrs.getString(1) + "\n");
    System.out.println(odxrs.getString(2)); 
  } 
} 
catch(SQLException se) 
{
  System.out.println("Execute query error: " + se);
}
 
// Close the Result Set, Statement and Connection objects */
try
{
  if(odxrs != null) odxrs.close();
  if(odxstmt != null) odxstmt.close();
  if(odxconn != null) odxconn.close();
}
catch(SQLException se) 
{
  System.out.println("Close error: " + se);
}
 
System.out.println("End of program.");
 
} // End Main
} // End Class

Compile and test the SELECT Statement
