   Is this still being supported? I was wanting to use it instead of the thin   
   driver so that I could pass just the connection aliaes (tnsnames). I am   
   understanding to use the thin driver one must:   
     try {   
      
         // register the Oracle JDBC drivers   
         DriverManager.registerDriver(   
           new oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver()   
         );   
      
         // create a Connection object, and connect to the database   
         // as store_user using the Oracle JDBC Thin driver   
         myConnection = DriverManager.getConnection(   
           "jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:ORCL",   
           "store_user",   
           "store_password"   
         );   
      
   But I did not see any examples on using the OCI to connect to a database   
   using the connect aliaes.   
      
   Could I have one and where is it documented at?   
      
   Thanks
