I’m building an installer for an application. The user gets to select a datasource they have configured and nominate what type of database it is. I want to confirm that the database type is indeed Oracle, and if possible, what version of Oracle they are running by sending a SQL statement to the datasource.

  1. Run this SQL:

    select * from v$version;

    And you’ll get a result like:
