Find Oracle JDBC driver in Maven repository

Image
By User



I want to add the oracle jdbc driver to my project as dependency (runtime scope) - ojdbc14. In MVNrepository site the dependency to put in the POM is:







<dependency>

    <groupId>com.oracle</groupId>

    <artifactId>ojdbc14</artifactId>

    <version>10.2.0.3.0</version>

</dependency>







of course this does't work as it is not in the central repository used by maven. 2 questions:









  1. How do I find a repository (if any) that contains this artifact?









  2. How do I add it so that Maven will use it?

    How do I find a repository (if any) that contains this artifact?

    Unfortunately due the binary license there is no public repository with the Oracle Driver JAR. This happens with many dependencies but is not Maven's fault. If you happen to find a public repository containing the JAR you can be sure that is illegal.

    How do I add it so that Maven will use it?

    Some JARs that can't be added due to license reasons have a pom entry in the Maven Central repo. Just check it out, it contains the URL to download the file which in this case is
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/index.html. Once you've downloaded the JAR just add it to your computer repository with:

    mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.oracle -DartifactId=ojdbc14 \
    -Dversion=10.2.0.3.0 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=ojdbc.jar -DgeneratePom=true


    The last parameter for generating a POM will save you from pom.xml warnings

    If your team has a local Maven repository this guide might be helpful to upload the JAR there.

    Up to now, its not possible to use maven repositories. I'm using ivy as dependency management tool, but also use maven2' s ibiblio repositories. And this is working for ivy:

    <dependency org="oracle" name="ojdbc14" rev="10.2.0.2" conf="*->default"/>


    Maven2' s dependency could be something like that:

    <dependency>
    <groupId>oracle</groupId>
    <artifactId>ojdbc14</artifactId>
    <version>10.2.0.2</version>
    </dependency>


    Notice that i define http://download.java.net/maven/2/ and http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/maven/mule/dependencies/maven2/[organisation]/[module]/[revision]/[artifact]-[revision].[ext] as external maven2 repos on my ivy settings.

    You can use Nexus to manage 3rd party dependencies as well as dependencies in standard maven repositories.

    This worked for me:

    <dependency>
    <groupId>oracle</groupId>
    <artifactId>jdbc</artifactId>
    <version>6</version>
    </dependency>

Slow Android emulator

By User
I have a 2.67 GHz Celeron processor, 1.21 GB of RAM on a x86 Windows XP Professional machine. My understanding is that the Android emulator should start fairly quickly on such a machine, but for me it does not. I have followed all instructions in setting up the IDE, SDKs, JDKs and such and have had some success in staring the emulator quickly but is very particulary. How can I, if possible, fix this problem?
