README for the HP Neoview JDBC Type 4 Driver (R2.5)
The client product version remains in sync with the major Neoview release,
such as Release 2.5, but only if the client product is changing (that is, has defect
repair or new features) for the release. If a client product is not changing, it
retains its current client product version.
Client products can be changed independently of a minor Neoview release,
such as R2.4 SP2 or R2.4.2. Each update of a client product increases the update
number of the client product version. Because the client update numbers increase
independently of minor Neoview releases, the client product versions are not
always in sync with the minor release versions. If the versions are in sync, it is
coincidental.

Alternatively, you can install the driver from the .tar file or the self-extracting .jar file:
• As a downloadable TAR file,
HP_Neoview_JDBC_Type_4_Driver_Vx.y.z_nnnnnn_nnn.tar
• As a self-extracting JAR file,
HP_Neoview_JDBC_Type_4_Driver_Vx.y.z_nnnnnn_nnn.jar
NOTE: You do not need WinZip installed on your workstation to install the driver from
the self-extracting JAR file.
