The ODBC API is for the C language. The JDBC API is for the Java language. ODBC came first, hence, some early usage of JDBC were actually going though a bridge to ODBC. Asking which is "better" doesn't really make sense, as that is like asking which language is better.

Oh, so it's just a matter of language? I thought ODBC and JDBC are not language dependent, but then again J stands for Java in JDBC, oh well, that clarifies everything. thanks
