Answer / dipanshu
We use type-4 driver in our project bcoz of the following reasons.
Type 4 Driver is a thin driver and it doesn't contain more layer like other (type-1 and type-2) drivers, it speed up the performance and moreover DB vendor library is automatically includes so explicitly our client application does not need to have DB vendor Library.
When we use type-4 driver to talk to Database then our JDBC code directly talks to the Database s/w without having the support of ODBC(like type-1) and DB Library(in type-1&type-2).
