java connectivity with mysql example

Create Database

To create a database you have to supply CREATE DATABASE command followed by the database name and then semicolon.

mysql> CREATE DATABASE EXPDB;
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.08 sec)

mysql>

 Use Database

Once you have created the database then you have to select it for use to perform operations on it. Command USE <DATABASE-NAME> begins a mysql (The MySQL Command-line Tool) session and lets you perform database operations. Note that, you need to create database only once but have to use it each time you start a mysql session.

mysql> USE EXPDB;
Database changed

mysql>

 Create a table

The EXPTABLE, example table to demonstrate JDBC (Java database connectivity) is created by issuing CREATE TABLE command as shown below:

mysql> CREATE TABLE EXPTABLE (
    -> ID INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
    -> NAME VARCHAR (50)
    -> );
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.20 sec)

mysql>

 Insert Records

Just for illustration, two records into EXPTABLE are being inserted, you can insert more if you like. Later we will perform select and edit operations on these records using JDBC (Java database connectivity).

   
mysql> INSERT INTO EXPTABLE (NAME) VALUES ("ANUSHKA K");
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.09 sec)

mysql> INSERT INTO EXPTABLE (NAME) VALUES ("GARVITA K");
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> SELECT * FROM EXPTABLE;
+----+-----------+
| ID | NAME      |
+----+-----------+
|  1 | ANUSHKA K |
|  2 | GARVITA K |
+----+-----------+
2 rows in set (0.03 sec)

Connect to MySQL with JDBC driver

Here’s an example to show you how to connect to MySQL database via a JDBC driver. First, get a MySQL JDBC driver from here -MySQL JDBC Driver Download Here.

MySQL JDBC Driver  should be in same folder where you save your project.

1. Java JDBC connection example

Code snippets to use a JDBC driver to connect a MySQL database.

Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
Connection conn = null;
conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://hostname:port/dbname","username", "password");
conn.close();
