I was wondering if anyone has succesfully connected to, and retrieved
data from an Oracle database using the JDBC classes?

I've just downloaded classes and docs and am attempting to create a simple
connection to my Oracle database.  Unfortunately the program keeps failing.
The problem appears to be in specifying the URL to connect to (it keeps
throwing an SQLException (no suitable driver).  I've read the draft specification but seem to be missing how to specify the driver in the URL (or something
along those lines).

Any insight on how to suceesfully use JDBC to connect to Oracle
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
