I need to establish a connection to a DB (f.i. MySQL, DB2) but I don't have the possibility to include JARs.

So I thought ODBC is able to connect to DBs without a DB specific driver. But every code example I found uses native drivers.

`Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");` 

Throws an access denied exception by Java Security
and if else I do get java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver found for..

I just want to submit some simple SQL Queries - I do not get why I need native drivers.

Am I on the wrong page?
