Oracle DB 19c and java 6

There is any chance to connect to an oracle DB 19c with java 6? I see that the connector is only compatible with jdk8 Whats happens if i use ojdbc6 for connect to a oracle DB 19c?

Thanks

Use Oracle 18 ojdc6.jar. Oracle Database JDBC is compatible with multiple previous and later versions of the database. In particular the 18 version of JDBC is compatible and fully supported with the 19 database.

Based on the Oracle JDBC FAQ the release 19c can be used with

ojdbc10.jar with JDK10, JDK11   

or

ojdbc8.jar with JDK8, JDK9, JDK11

What happens if you use a lower JDK version?

Simple try, I assume you will see an exception while trying to connect Exception: Connection refused ...

otherwise (source is same as above) If it is not listed in the above table then please check with your support channel to check if you are still on the support contract for the older versions.
