Thanks and Regards, -Geronimo Hi,

One way to do that is to leave it for the user to specify in their database yaml file. Here's an example of that using a plain old jdbc adapter and Oracle: #ORACLE development: adapter: jdbc driver: oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver url: jdbc:oracle:thin:@myOracleHost:1521:mySID username: myUser password: myPass If there is a driver that is the one most people will use, you can code your adapter to guess that driver for them. Here's some code that I wrote that does that for InterSystems Cache DB: http://tinyurl.com/9n6wy9 The driver class name is set as in the database config as the driver: value.

#ORACLE
development:
adapter: jdbc
driver: oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver
url: jdbc:oracle:thin:@myOracleHost:1521:mySID
username: myUser

Where should it be placed (i.e. is there a convention) in the jruby heirachy ? Thanks. Probably really obvious, but where is the jdbc driver name referenced ?
