Oracle ojdbc#.jar files

[hiddenkirby]

Recently upgraded to 11g client on my cognos servers... from 10g.

in the past ive used ojdbc14.jar and everything worked like a champ.

I noticed there are 4 new jar files in the 11g installation... and cognos documentation says use ojdbc5.jar

within E:\app\cognosadmin\product\11.1.0\client_1\jdbc\lib

there are 4 jar files

ojdbc5.jar
ojdbc5_g.jar
ojdbc6.jar
ojdbc6_g.jar

what are the difference?

and should my installation include both ojdbc14.jar as well as ojdbc5.jar?


Thanks and apologies for possibly a dumb question,
    Kirby


p.s. metrics is throwin an error when i open the studio.  everythign else seems to be working fine.  the error is this "'no ocijdbc10 in java.library.path'" i posted a seperate topic.   http://www.cognoise.com/community/index.php/topic,9080.0.html

The answer is

ojdbc14.jar = Java Version 1.4
ojdbc5.jar = Java Version 1.5
ojdbc6.jar = Java Version 1.6


Still not sure about the ojdbc6_g.jar    or ojdbc5_g.jar...

any thoughts anyone?

Google is your friend here: ojdbc5_g.jar="Same as ojdbc5.jar, except that classes were compiled with "javac -g" and contain tracing code."
