JDBC in android

[Hardik Trivedi]

Hi All,

Suppose I want to fetch records from remote database located somewhere on server.
And I want JDBC to use.Can we use JDBC ?

However I know that it is not standard way to go. We can use SOAP kind of webservice too. But somehow I want to use JDBC only.
Please help ?

Any tutorial will be a great help.

JDBC does not exist for Android. You shouldn't use JDBC across the Internet anyway. I wouldn't use SOAP instead - REST should be the first approach these days.

I was also thinking the same. But when I googled I found few people who has done it.
Take a look at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4447692/jdbc-connection-in-android

So now I am confuse.
