Just a quick note to make a few things clear: - the type doesn't reflect on the quality. E.g. a type 4 driver is not better than a type3 driver and a type5 driver not necessary better than a type4 driver. They just do things in different ways. I just want to avoid that the type is seen as a quality indicator.
- there is no such thing as jdbc type5 drivers. The product Carl is pointing to is nothing but a vendor-specific implementation of a type4-driver with a few new and different features that Data Direct have decided to give as much marketing spin as they can and call it "type5". - the features in that "type5" driver that appear to make them be miles ahead are mostly irrelevant from a CF point of view imho. For Java developers - looks certainly interesting. But a lot of the stuff this driver promises to fix is dealt with within CF anyway so that I think it won't be relevant for CF devs. - I haven't looked at the price tag, but I assume the DD drivers don't come free of charge. Happy to be proven wrong in all of my points though :-) Cheers Kai > Hello Pat, > > I use the divers built in CF. The JDBC divers in CF8/9 are type4.
