HI

My Problem is the following:
I want to make JDBC Connections to databases.
Therefore I've got to load Drivers at runtime of my plugin, but I don't
know how to. The Problem is, that a JDBC Driver shall be specified at
runtime and than it shall be loaded. therefore I've got to update my
classpath, to make the method Class.forName(drivername) work, so it can
find the drivers jar file...
So How can I update my classpath at runtime to make the forName method
work?
