Welcome to all my friends who want to Learn MySQL dB to JDBC Connectivity .

I have MySQL 5.0 installed on my Windows. In order to make a JDBC connection to MySQL database one needs to downlad the MySQL/J connector driver from here . I will also expect that you have Netbeans 6+ installed on your machine.

Extract the zip file to a folder, you’ll see file ‘mysql-connector-java-5.0.6-bin.jar’ which is the library file that we want. Just copy the file to the library folder, for example to “C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_02\lib” also to the “C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_02\jre\lib directory.

Next, create a new Java project on NetBeans named ‘TestMySQL’.

Now I’m going to write some code to connect to MySQL database. I have configured MySQL service on localhost.
I’m going to use Connection and DriverMapper Classes so I need to import libraries.
import java.sql.*;

Inorder to test my connections I build my project.

So everything seems to be fine till now.

To get some data, I need to execute query on the SQL Server and get the result back to me. First, I create stmt (Statement object) and execute query in SQL language. Then I store the result on ResultSet object and iterative show the result on the output window.

Insert some data to the created table using the code

 Statement stmt = null;

stmt = con.createStatement();

String SQL = “INSERT INTO ZanduBaam (Name,Roll) VALUES (‘Abhishek’,40)”;

int rowsEffected = stmt.executeUpdate(SQL);

System.out.println(rowsEffected + ” rows effected”);

Inorder to retrieve data from database , I need to execute query on the SQL Server and get the result back to me. First, I created stmt (Statement object) and execute query in SQL language. Then I store the result on ResultSet object and iterative show the result on the output window.

ResultSet rs = null; // SQL query command String SQL = “SELECT * FROM ZanduBaam”; stmt = con.createStatement(); rs = stmt.executeQuery(SQL); while (rs.next()) {
System.out.println(rs.getString(“Name”) + ” : ” + rs.getString(“Roll”));
}

Similarly you can do the required for updation and deletion .
