For applications, copy the JDBC-ODBC Bridge Client (EJOB.jar) from the JDBC-ODBC Bridge Server distribution to the client machine. On Windows machines, the file can be found in the following location, by default:

drive:\Program Files\Easysoft\Easysoft JDBC-ODBC Bridge\jars

On Unix machines, the location is:

installation_directory/easysoft/job/jars

by default, installation_directory is /usr/local.

Suppose you have saved it to D:\jars\EJOB.jar on Windows or /home/java_app/jars/EJOB.jar on Unix.

On Windows, set your classpath in your application launch script or environment to:

set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;D:\jars\EJOB.jar

To do this on Unix:

CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/home/java_app/jars/EJOB.jar
export CLASSPATH

Alternatively, you can save EJOB.jar in the extension directory of your Java installation. For example:

%JAVA_HOME\jre\lib\ext\

-Or-

$JAVA_HOME/jre/kib/ext

Note that IDEs such as NetBeans require JDBC drivers to be placed in the Java extension directory.
