JDBC versioning

Standard FairCom packages provide the following versions of the JDBC driver:

  • ctreeJDBC.jar
  • ctreeJDBC_1_7.jar
  • ctreeJDBC_1_8.jar
  • ctreeJDBC_1_9.jar
  • ctreeJDBC_1_11.jar
  • ctreeJDBC_1_17.jar

Select the driver that best suits your requirements based on the specifications below. You can then rename your version of the JDBC driver to ctreeJDBC.jar to ease the loading of the driver into your Java applications.

ctreeJDBC.jar/ctreeJDBC_1_8.jar are Driver compliant with the JDBC 4.1 specification and are used as the default version for tutorials and samples. Requires Java 8 (1.8) or newer to run.

ctreeJDBC_1_7.jar is a Legacy driver distributed for compatibility reasons. Because of this, we do not suggest using this version unless you are unable to upgrade to a newer version of Java. it is compliant with the JDBC 4.1 specification and requires Java 7 (1.7) or newer to work.

ctreeJDBC_1_9.jar is Driver compliant with the JDBC 4.2 specification and requires Java 9 or newer to run.

ctreeJDBC_1_11.jar is Driver compliant with the JDBC 4.3 specification and provides a socket keep-aline feature not present in the other variations of the drive. Requires Java 11 or newer to run.

ctreeJDBC_1_17.jar has he same features as ctreeJDBC_1_11.jar but is built with Java 17 to take advantage of the latest language optimizations. Because of this, it requrires Java 17 or newer to run.
