Configure Squirrel SQL to connect to Oracle DB

I'm adding the configuration for setting Squirrel SQL 3.3.0 to connect to Oracle DB 11gr2. I'm using thin connectivity (No need for client installation in your machine).

Steps:
1- Open Driver list from left menu, scroll down till you find "Oracle Thin Driver", you will notice red x mark next to it denoting the driver is still not configured.
2- After selecting "Oracle Thin Driver" click "Modify the Selected Driver" denoted by pencil.
3- Click "Extra Class Path" tab.
4- Click "Add" and select 1 jar file from %Oracle_DB_CLIENT_INSTALL%\jdbc\lib\ojdbc6_g.jar
5- Click Ok, and we are done defining the driver.
6- Now create an alias for the DB using previous driver and providing URL, username, & password.

Note:
No need to have Oracle client for setup, all you need is just the driver jar files. You can download from this Oracle link.

If you are using JDK 5 while running Squirrel SQL, the jar file will be %Oracle_DB_CLIENT_INSTALL%\jdbc\lib\ojdbc5_g.jar

Configure Squirrel SQL to connect to IBM DB2

"Squirrel SQL" is a great light weight generic SQL client that I have started using for more than 7 years now.

This is how to configure Squirrel SQL 3.3.0 to connect to DB2 server, I have installed IBM DB2 admin client 9.7 - 64 bit software on my Windows 7 enterprise SP1. You will find two types of DB2 drivers APP & NET, most recommended way is to use type 4 JDBC driver (thin) that actually doesn't require client installation, but require proper jar files and associated license.

Steps:
1- Open Driver list from left menu, click the plus sign "Create a New Driver".
2- Type "IBM DB2 Universal Driver" in "Name" textbox.
3- Type "jdbc:db2://<server>:<port>/<dbname>" in "Example URL" textbox.
4- Type "com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver" in "Class Name" editable dropdown list.
5- Click "Extra Class Path" tab.
6- Click "Add" and select two jar files from %DB2_INSTALL%\java\db2jcc.jar & %DB2_INSTALL%\java\db2jcc_license_cu.jar
7- Click Ok, and we are done defining the driver.
8- Now create an alias for the DB using previous driver and providing URL, username, & password.

Your driver dialog should look like:
