I found this library, JayDeBeApi which says it will let me connect to JDBC.
Does anyone know if how reliable it is, or if there's a better way to connect?
If not, I'm having trouble setting up JayDeBeAPI. The instructions say to run some Python code to set up JPype but I'm not clear if I need to do that in the same script before calling the connection code, or is it some kind of server I need to leave running?
