In my application I want to use a database that needs no install and
that can be access directly (not thru ip-access), preferably packed in
a single (jar-) file.

I was looking at H2, but all examples I see make use of it thru a web-
path. Is what I want possible with H2? And if it is, can anyone show
me some sample code of how to make a connection and do a simple select
query?

What you are looking for is the simplest of all H2 connection modes, embedded mode. Here are a few useful links in the documentation:
http://www.h2database.com/html/features.html#connection_modes
http://www.h2database.com/html/features.html#database_url
http://www.h2database.com/html/features.html#embedded_databases
http://www.h2database.com/html/tutorial.html#connecting_using_jdbc

Once connected just use standard SQL DDL and DML. The H2 grammar details are here:
