How to include jar files to a Java Stored Procedure in Oracle?

Question

I'm realizing a stored procedure and need now the ability to include jar files to my stored procedure, which do not belong to the standard deployment of the JRE. How can I do this? As I know wasn't it possible with Oracle 9 ...

Thanks for help!

Solution 1

Use the loadjava tool, it accepts jar files, too: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/java.102/b14187/cheleven.htm#CACFHDJE

Solution 2

I normally use this console command to add new jars to oracle:

exec dbms_java.loadjava('D:\temp\jcifs-1.3.19.jar');

In my case I added this library to connecto to windows shared folders from a oracle linux installation (smb). After the installation you may need to grant your user with permissions.
