how get connection to database.

[David O'Meara]

DriverManager.getConnection()

[Raghavan Muthu]

Use either of them

DriverManager - Class in java.sql package

DataSource - Interface in javax.sql package

Both of them have a method called getConnection(). DriverManager has it as a static method whereas DataSource's is an instance method. getConnection() gives you a java.sql.Connection object.

Also make sure of the JDBC Driver Type as well. Depends on that you need to pass the Connection URL.
