Java Database Connectivity (JDBC)

Hi,

I'm a java developer, but i'm new to eclipse and JBoss. i tried using a sample JDBC code in eclipse, and this is the error i'm getting. any idea why this is happening? if someone knows what is happ around, please let me know...

thanks,

ng.

This is the program:

import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.SQLException;

/**
* Example 3.2. The SimpleConnection class is a command line application that
* accepts the following command line: java SimpleConnection DRIVER URL UID
* PASSWORD If the URL fits the specified driver, it will then load the driver
* and get a connection.
*/
public class SimpleConnection {
static public void main(String args[]) {
Connection connection = null;

// Process the command line
if (args.length != 4) {
System.out.println("Syntax: java SimpleConnection "
+ "DRIVER URL UID PASSWORD");
return;
}
try { // load the driver
Class.forName(args[0]).newInstance();
} catch (Exception e) { // problem loading driver, class not exist?
e.printStackTrace();
return;
}
try {
connection = DriverManager.getConnection(args[1], args[2], args[3]);
System.out.println("Connection successful!");
// Do whatever queries or updates you want here!!!
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (connection != null) {
try {
connection.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}
}
