API docs for Mysql JDBC Driver?
Does anyone know where I can find a complete set of API docs for the JConnect Driver 3.x? The docs
on the site are lacking and only have simple examples on how to do SELECT's. I am looking for a
complete method list or something more detailed.
Thanks for any info,
rhugga

The documentation for the JDBC driver at MySQL.com shows you any MySQL
_specific_ information. It is assumed that you either know JDBC or know
where to look for the information (I believe it even has some pointers
in the docs). There are plenty of documentation artifacts for JDBC
(books, tutorials, apidocs, etc), there's no reason for us to re-invent
the wheel there.
We implement the _standard_, there are very few 'extensions' to the JDBC
standard in the Connector/J docs...Where there are, they're documented.

Ok, those docs are way out of date. If you're using connectorj 3, those
docs would only confuse the matter.
The current docos on the jconnector portion of the mysql.com website contain
all the latest info on "how much of the spec" the jconnector drivers
implement. The JavaDoc for the drivers themselves (and it's hard to see when
you'd want those, unless you intend to bypass java.sql) you can create from
the java source files that you get when you download the "binaries + source"
downloads from mysql.com (or don't bother generating them, and just read
them from the *.java files).
If you're asking yourself: "how do I do SQL with jconnector drivers", then I
think what you actually want to look into is "how do I use the java.sql
classes to do SQL", for which there is a healthy amount of JavaDoc included
with the JDK, and a JDBC tutorial on java.sun.com. You should not be
directly using the jconnector classes for doing SQL.

I tired looking this up also. The best I could come up with is to
compare the java.sql APIs and the mysql limitations. Here is a URL

RE: Installing the MySql jdbc driver on XP?
Posted by John Najarian <j-...@earthlink.net>.
Thanks Filip, I wanted to configure it to use a Driver Manager also.
What I've been having a ton of trouble with is configuring Eclipse.
I've downloaded some plugins but the 2nd one I ried to install should
have been the 3rd. After knocking that around for a while I found a
site which had the missing 2nd plugin and how to... But downloading
plugin is taking forever.

there is nothing to do when installing a JDBC driver, especially if it is a
type 4.
Just copy the JAR file to WEB-INF/lib if you want to use the driver within
your webapps,
or just add the JAR to your CLASSPATH if you want to run it standalone
look for JDBC tutorials

Subject: Installing the MySql jdbc driver on XP?
I am trying to install the JDBC driver on an XP box
to use it with a driver manager in Tomcat and to use
it as stand alone for simple tests.
I find the MySql installation documentation fragmented
and difficult to follow. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
