Yes, you really want ot match the OJDBC version to the Java version. The trailing number tells you what Java version the library was compiled under. From experience, ojdbc14 works just fine with Java5, but not Java6. Java6 really wants the ojdbc6 library, but you need to be careful about the version of the ojdbc library you use. The 11.2.x version has some changes to mapped types that could give you fits if you aren't prepared for it. In other words, before randomly upgrading to a new version of any library, be sure you've read through the CHANGES documents and make sure nothing was changed that will affect you -- and then test the hell out of it!
