I downloaded JavaDB from SUN for LINUX and tried it with XCode and
Java 1.5 for Mac OS X 10.4.7 on a PowerBook G4 but got the following
(Below) that I am unable to cope with on the Mac. There seem to be a
IBM driver that is lacking and no way to get that to work for the
Mac. It was things like this that I was hoping Apple Computers to
address in Java 1.6 now that Java DB is claimed by SUN to be a
integral part of Java 2 SE version 6.
By the way I have seen a analogous problem with mySQL too. It seems
like it is easier to connect a camera to a mac than to get a
relational database to work from Java. The difference is probably
that Apple is doing a job with USB-drivers. Apple do not seem to do
the same job with JDBC drivers. I hope that will change or that
database implementers at least make drivers available, for the Mac.
If the jdbc drivers are not easily available the point of the rest of
the database seem to be of academic value only.
Since the other vendors for Java DB (IBM, SUN, Apache) do not address
Mac OS X in particular there seem to be at least implicit hints that
the jdbc-drivers for Java DB is Apples responsibility.
Can anybody help me out while we are waiting?
