Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) is an application programming interface (API) for the programming language Java, which defines how a client may access a database. It is part of the Java Standard Edition platform and provides methods to query and update data in a database, and is oriented towards relational databases.
LightDB JDBC Driver (ltjdbc for short) allows Java programs to connect to a LightDB database using standard, database independent Java code. Is an open source JDBC driver written in Pure Java (Type 4), and communicates in the LightDB native network protocol. Because of this, the driver is platform independent; once compiled, the driver can be used on any system.
The current version of the driver should be compatible with LightDB 13.8-24.2, and it's compatible with Java 6 (JDBC 4.0), Java 7 (JDBC 4.1) and Java 8 (JDBC 4.2).
This manual is not intended as a complete guide to JDBC programming, but should help to get you started. For more information refer to the standard JDBC API documentation. Also, take a look at the examples included with the source.
