How do I determine the driver class for JDBC driver? It appears that it keeps changing between com.vertica.Driver to com.vertica.jdbc.Driver

unzip Vertica jdbc driver (jar file) and look in "META-INF/services/java.sql.Driver".

Example

$ mkdir -p /tmp/jar && unzip -d /tmp/jar /opt/vertica/java/lib/vertica-jdk5-6.1.3-0.jar
Archive:  /opt/vertica/java/lib/vertica-jdk5-6.1.3-0.jar
   creating: /tmp/jar/META-INF/
  inflating: /tmp/jar/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF  
   creating: /tmp/jar/META-INF/services/
   creating: /tmp/jar/com/
...


$ cat /tmp/jar/META-INF/services/java.sql.Driver
com.vertica.jdbc.Driver
