Hello

i have download JBuilder 9 Personal and try it out - very big this thing.
How can I make a connection to a database via JDataStore ?

I have played with JDataStore and have successul add new user, and a table.
But how can i access it in Java ?

Then I would like use the help and get "no such file" can't analyse file ...
ther is a file listet in the output with a directory that never exists.
i have look in /opt (linux) and only found ./doc in JBuilder9 dir with few
html and *.dat
files - same problem on windows.
what the problem ?

a programmer told me, i should have a look to DBVisualizer (www.dbvis.com)
for what is that thing good ?
Is it a database engine ?
And how can I install it (the driver for mysql) I have download the driver
for mysql 3.23
from the link from mysql.com refer from main site.

thanks in forward ...
Jens Kallup

To install the mySQL driver you need to place it on your JBuilder classpath
and add it as a library to JBuilder.

Go to Tools, Configure libraries. Click NEw and give the library a name,
like mySQL. Add the library paths( where you have the mySQL.jar files) and
click OK.

To use it in your project, you will need to go to Project, Project
Properties and add the mySQL library you created to the required library
list.

If you want the mySQL libraries to show up in your DBPilot, go to the
dbpilot.conf file located in your JBuilder/bin directory. Use the AddPath
../lib/ext/mysql[all needed jars].jar to the the Addpath directives. You
will need to do this for all of the required jars for mySQL or any other
jdbc drivers you add.
