I’m still a beginner in java. I dont have any idea on how to import the files that I have downloaded into my java class.
Its in this path:
E:\Users\user\Downloads\mysql-connector-java-5.1.12
I don’t know what to do with the files I extracted from the file that I have downloaded in the mysql site for me to connect my java application and mysql database.
I’m using Netbeans 6.8. And have also installed wampserver.
ive already check out
This: Java: Trouble connecting to MySQL
and this: Connecting to a MySQL database
But they don’t seem to have answers on how to make use of the mysql java connector file from mysql site.
Please help, thanks.
Right click on your project in your project explorer and click on properties.
From there go to libraries -> add jar file then go to whatever .jar file you want to import.
That should add the jar file to your project classpath.
