Utility Sample Programs

Some useful sample programs are provided separately from the themed modules.

sample1.java is a sample program to test a JDBC connection.

TJEncryptPassword.java is a sample program to create encrypted password files for use with Teradata JDBC Driver Stored Password Protection.



How to Run Sample Programs

Use the following procedure to run the Teradata JDBC Driver Sample Programs:

  1. Download and install a supported JDK on your development system.

  2. The sample programs are distributed in a platform-independent jar file, samples.jar, which contains the source code for the sample programs.


    Download samples.jar

    Download and copy samples.jar and terajdbc4.jar to your development platform. Beginning with Teradata JDBC Driver 16.20.00.11, tdgssconfig.jar is no longer used and should not be listed on the classpath.

    With older versions of the Teradata JDBC Driver, tdgssconfig.jar must also be copied to your development platform and listed on the classpath.

    The commands below assume that all the files are copied to the same directory on your development platform.

  3. Go to the directory where samples.jar is located and unjar the sample applications:

    jar xvf samples.jar

  4. On the z/OS USS platform, the .java files in samples.jar must be converted to EBCDIC after they are extracted from the jar file. The .java source files in samples.jar are encoded in ASCII, but z/OS USS requires EBCDIC files. The .java source files can be converted to EBCDIC using the "iconv" tool.

    For example, to convert sample1.java from ASCII to EBCDIC:

    iconv -f ISO8859-1 -t IBM-1047 sample1.java > sample1-ebcdic.java

  5. Modify the sample application sample1.java with your database information.

    You need to change the following:


  6. Compile the modified sample application by entering the following:

    javac sample1.java

  7. Run the application on Windows by entering the following:

    java -classpath .;terajdbc4.jar sample1

    Or run the application on UNIX by entering the following:

    java -classpath .:terajdbc4.jar sample1

    With older versions prior to Teradata JDBC Driver 16.20.00.11, run the application on Windows by entering the following:

    java -classpath .;terajdbc4.jar;tdgssconfig.jar sample1

    With older versions prior to Teradata JDBC Driver 16.20.00.11, run the application on UNIX by entering the following:

    java -classpath .:terajdbc4.jar:tdgssconfig.jar sample1

Note: The "." entry, representing the current directory, on the classpath in the commands above is what enables Java to locate the sample1.class file.

Repeat steps 4 through the end for each of the other sample programs.

Note: The Java Stored Procedure samples in Module 6 must be compiled and placed into the SampleJXSP.jar file before they can be installed on the database. The steps listed below assume that you have already unjarred the contents of samples.jar

  1. Compile the Java Stored Procedure samples by entering the following:

    javac -d . BookInfo.java DeptJobInfo.java EmpInfo.java

  2. Jar the Java Stored Procedure samples by entering the following:

    jar cvf SampleJXSP.jar com/teradata/sample/BookInfo.class com/teradata/sample/DeptJobInfo.class com/teradata/sample/EmpInfo.class

  3. Modify the sample application T20603JD.java with your database information.

    You need to change the following:


  4. Compile the modified sample application by entering the following:

    javac T20603JD.java

  5. Run the application on Windows by entering the following:

    java -classpath .;terajdbc4.jar T20603JD

    Or run the application on UNIX by entering the following:

    java -classpath .:terajdbc4.jar T20603JD

    With older versions prior to Teradata JDBC Driver 16.20.00.11, tdgssconfig.jar must also be listed on the classpath.

Note: The Java User Defined Function sample in module 14 must be compiled and placed into the SampleJavaUDF.jar file before they are installed on the database. The steps listed below assume that you have already unjarred the contents of samples.jar

  1. Compile the Java User Defined Function sample by entering the following:

    javac -d . JavaUDFClass.java

  2. Jar the Java User Defined Function sample by entering the following:

    jar cvf SampleJavaUDF.jar com/teradata/sample/JavaUDFClass.class

  3. Modify the sample application T21401JD.java with your database information.

    You need to change the following:


  4. Compile the modified sample application by entering the following:

    javac T21401JD.java

  5. Run the application on Windows by entering the following:

    java -classpath .;terajdbc4.jar T21401JD

    Or run the application on UNIX by entering the following:

    java -classpath .:terajdbc4.jar T21401JD

    With older versions prior to Teradata JDBC Driver 16.20.00.11, tdgssconfig.jar must also be listed on the classpath.

Note: The Module 13 DataSource Sample Programs require the com.sun.jndi.fscontext.RefFSContextFactory class, which is included in the fscontext.jar file of the Java Enterprise Edition SDK. In order to run the Module 13 DataSource Sample Programs, you need to download and install the Java EE SDK from Oracle and include fscontext.jar and providerutil.jar on your classpath.
