Will ojdbc6.jar work for JDK 1.7 and Oracle 12c? Should I use ojdbc7.jar?

Thank you in advance.

The included ojdbc6.jar is the latest 12c driver. The only difference between ojdbc6.jar and ojdbc7.jar is that the latter one is compiled with Java 7. Since DB Solo is at least for now using Java 6, it can only include ojdbc6.jar. In terms of functionality the versions are identical. Link
