Oracle for JDBC prototyping?

[andrew222]

Hello,

I would like to do some JDBC/ database prototyping. I would like to download Oracle and saw multiple versions available for download. Which one would be the best for prototyping core-java/Servlets/Struts?

Because you will not use it in production, you can download oracle xe.
There are two versions on download page - Western European and Universal. I chose universal, because I need unicode. So if you need unicode and different languages support by default download universal, if not, then western european.
