But jdbc driver shows error on execution.
It seems like jdbc driver is not supported on android.
Please tell me how to connect my android application to my oracle database.

Solution 1

Direct connection to the oracle database server would require Steady network connection and heavy database drivers.These drivers are not designed to run on mobile OS.

Instead of directly connecting to oracle you can create webservices in java. After creating and publishing the webservice you can connect your mobile application with the webservices.

Refer to this [LINK] for more informattion.

Hello Sudhakar,

Exposing database directly over the internet should generally be avoided not because of a steady network connection or heavy database drivers requirement but for security reasons. Preventing direct access actually helps one in shielding the database structures and avoid casual browsing/tampering of data.

Yes.I missed to mention the important security aspect. Thanks for pointing it out.
