JDBC-ODBC Bridge offered lot of flexibility in connecting a data source. Many had used this bridge to connect & query MS Excel / MS Access as a database. Starting from Java 8, Oracle has removed this feature. This created a major blocker for many to upgrade to new Java version & many applications which were built based on this have failed.
As an interim solution, one can build an extension from jdbc classes of previous java version & add it to Java 8 extensions.
Follow the below steps to enable the JDBC-ODBC Bridge support in Java 8.
