JSP, ASP and PHP are all server-side templating systems for web applications. JavaScript is a scripting language used mostly in the client-side web pages.

The question makes no sense. There are many ways to create GUIs for programs on Linux. X11. Swing. Or whatever. JSP, as noted above, is a server-side templating mechanism for web applications.

i have learnt only upto JAVA....

right now i am doing a college project.... a real time project to be implemented in our college...

i used JAVA swings..... which caused me lots of trouble for developing the GUI..

i have even constructed my database.... buth the problem is that i am unable to establish a link between JAVA and database...

i have talked to my lectureres and several other JAVA programmers... they lend me a helping hand.... but i never had been able to find a solution for it.....

i'll post the code here:

import java.sql.*;
import javax.sql.*;

public class DBConnect
{
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
{
try
{
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");

Connection con=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc

dbc:OracleDriver","scott","tiger");
System.out.println("Connection is created");
}

catch(Exception e)
{
}
/*Statement stmt=con.createStatement();
ResultSet rs=stmt.executeQuery("select * from emp");
while(rs.next())
{
int id=rs.getInt("id");
String name=rs.getString("name");
String city=rs.getString("city");
int salary=rs.getInt("salary");
System.out.println(id +" "+ name + " "+ city+ " " + salary);

}*/
}
}

file name is DBConnect.java

DSN name: OracleDriver

classpath: ./;c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0\lib\rt.jar;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0\lib\tools.jar

path: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0\bin

no compile time errors

run time error: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: DBConnect

i need an urgent reply for this.. because the deadline is near... and i m nearly helpless..

6 months ago i did another project... using VB.. but i failed in establishing a link with database...

this is my 2nd proj.... and i need to perfom it successdully

"jhonny", you have previously been warned on one or more occasions regarding adjusting your display name to meet JavaRanch standards. This is not optional. Please take a look at the JavaRanch Naming Policy and adjust your display name to match it prior to your next post.

Your display name must be a first and a last name separated by a space character, and must not be obviously fictitious.

Be aware that accounts with invalid display names are disabled.

In general if classpath has been setup correctly the error should not occur. However, make sure that your classpath includes .; i.e. path to your current folder where the program is located. If not, the above error will show up and this may be all you need to fix your problem.

ya i have tried out that...

but it doesnt seem to work
