Loading the HCL OneDB JDBC Driver

The Driver uses an automatic registration mechanism when you load the driver into your application. You should not need to manually execute any programming logic to 'load' the driver. However if you wish to do so you may

try {
    Class.forName("com.onedb.jdbc.OneDBDriver");
} 
catch (Exception e) {
    System.out.println("ERROR: failed to load OneDB JDBC driver.");
    e.printStackTrace();
    return;
}

The Class.forName() method loads the HCL OneDB implementation of the Driver class, OneDBDriver. OneDBDriver then creates an instance of the driver and registers it with the DriverManager class.
