Providing JDBC Access on UNIX

  1. Create a directory on your machine for the Micro Focus XDBC JDBC files.
  2. Place the downloaded .tar file in that directory and untar it.

    The directory now contains two subdirectories and a vortex.jar file:

    sample     Sample Java and JDBC programs
    html HTML Java and JDBC method descriptions
  3. Move the vortex.jar file into a directory pointed to by the Java JVM $CLASSPATH environment variable that is used for running the JDBC-enabled application.

    Alternatively, you can add this directory to the $CLASSPATH environment variable using the following command for C shell: 

    setenv CLASSPATH "$CLASSPATH":"/usr2/mfxdbc"

    Or the following for Bourne shell: 

    CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/usr2/mfxdbc
export CLASSPATH
