 What are the important steps in using JDBC in JSP?


     1) Instantiate an instance of the JDBC driver you're trying to use (jdbc-odbc
bridge name from memory so pls check):

     Class.forName( "sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver" ).newInstance();

     This determines if the class is available and instantiates a new instance of
it, making it available for the next step.

     2) Ask the DriverManager for a Connection object based on the JDBC URL you
are using:

     Connection connDB = DriverManager.getConnection( "jdbc:odbc:MyDSN",
     "username", "password" );

     DriverManager searches through any registered drivers (instantiating a new
instance above is enough to register a driver with the DriverManager, as each
implementation is required to) and, based on
     the JDBC URL you are using, returns the appropriate implementation of
Connection.

     3) Create a Statement object to retrieve a ResultSet

     Statement smentDB = connDB.createStatement();
     ResultSet rsDB = connDB.executeQuery( "SELECT * FROM Foo" );
     or
     rsDB = connDB.executeUpdate( "UPDATE Foo SET Bar = NULL" );

     4) Close down connections to free resources:

     rsDB.close();
     smentDB.close();
     connDB.close();
