it's an overview of many jdbc database drivers and the needed jar-files, the driver classes and the database url. the information is useful in case you want to add a certain driver to mirth.

Re:databases, JDBC drivers and URLs

I found this in the Oracle FAQ at:

http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/htdocs/jdbc_faq.htm#02_02

seems as though the later versions are backwards compatable with 8i.

I have also read that usinh thin does not require the oracle client to be installed, other methods seem to!
