Java DatabaseMetaData getDriverMinorVersion() method with example
The getDriverMinorVersion() method of the DatabaseMetaData interface returns the minor version of the JDBC driver used.
To get the minor version of the JDBC driver used to connect with the database −
Make sure your database is up and running.
Register the driver using the registerDriver() method of the DriverManager class. Pass an object of the driver class corresponding to the underlying database.
Get the connection object using the getConnection() method of the DriverManager class. Pass the URL the database and, user name, password of a user in the database, as String variables.
Get the DatabaseMetaData object with respect to the current connection using the getMetaData() method of the Connection interface.
Finally get the minor version of the JDBC driver used, by invoking the getDriverMinorVersion() method of the DatabaseMetaData interface .
Example
Following JDBC program establishes connection with MySQL database, retrieves and, displays the minor version of the JDBC driver used.
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DatabaseMetaData;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.SQLException;
public class DatabaseMetaData_getDriverMinorVersion {
public static void main(String args[]) throws SQLException {
//Registering the Driver
DriverManager.registerDriver(new com.mysql.jdbc.Driver());
//Getting the connection
String mysqlUrl = "jdbc:mysql://localhost/mydatabase";
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(mysqlUrl, "root", "password");
System.out.println("Connection established......");
//Retrieving the meta data object
DatabaseMetaData metaData = con.getMetaData();
//Retrieving the major version of the database
int version = metaData.getDriverMinorVersion();
//Retrieves this JDBC driver's major version number
System.out.println("Major version of the JDBC driver used: "+version);
}
}Output
Connection established...... Major version of the JDBC driver used: 1
