Why not JDBC on HC????
417886Aug 23 2004 — edited Oct 8 2004Recently I have experienced using Heterogeneous Conectivity on Oracle and Linux database. Because of the ODBC driver of the destination database has some implementation errors I got much problems with this simple mechanism of data integration. After I conclused that there was no way to do that, I tryed by another way. I installed a "driver" for unixODBC that is a gateway for JDBC drivers and used the JDBC to communicate to the remote database.
My question is: Why Oracle don't put direct access to JDBC inside the database? Doing this the ODBC access will be deprecated because generally JDBC drivers are well implemented and ODBC drivers not, and I suggest to Oracle put this because already exists, with java, a gateway from jdbc to odbc.
