You can use Oracle without ODBC, just use the class 4 JDBC driver which has far better performance and is platform independent.
You're not going to create DSNs from Java without using native code (thus JNI and a DLL), though maybe the Oracle ODBC bridge driver has some non-standard functionality to allow it (you'd have to check the documentation on the driver for that).
