Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Register vs. Load of JDBC driver
So the "Class.forName" call is ten times faster than
the "DriverManager.registerDriver()" call? Is that one
tenth of a sec vs a sec thing?
Class.forName loads the JDBC driver class, then the static initializer part of the JDBC driver registers itself with DriverManager.
DriverManager can manage mutiple drivers, when using DriverManager it will load the property jdbc.driver from say "~/.hotjava/properties" if there is one. Also, one creates a new instances of the JDBC driver to register with DriverManager where Class.forName doesn't.

Approximately 10 times slower.

What sort of differences? Is the DriverManager method slower than Class.forName()?

Hi List!
I'm not a Java programer so please, forgive me my (blissful) ignorance. My
developers
are experiencing wild differences when connecting using
driverManager.registerDriver vs.
Class.forName (dynamic loading). Does anybody have any clue why is that? Any
articles
about registering vs. loading?
Thanks!
