Integrate Eclipse Myeclipse and Mysql

Integrate Eclipse Myeclipse and Mysql Configuration Log

One day, I am ambitious for becoming a developer due to low salary of system administrator.

I start to learn JSP and JavaScript. It seems the first lesson is always study environment.

After read many article I clear about how to Integrate Eclipse Myeclipse and Mysql base on JSDK.

 

Simple steps record below for future reference.

1.  Install JDK, ECLIPSE, TOMCAT same as common MS software intallation.

2.  Install Myeclipse, one of its scene asking you for the Eclipse path, specified Eclipse directory where you installed Eclipse on step1..

3.  Launch eclipse, from Menu, window--preference--myeclipse enable tomcat and specified the JDK home Not Jre for tomcat.

4.  On the preference page, under Java, make sure JRE home was correctly defined.

5.  Launch Myeclipse, from menu, File --new project--web project to create test webproject.

 

6.  Download sqlexplorer and link to eclipse plugin directory, take attention to the directory structure of plugin directory.

If you define link path is path=D:/eclipse/myplugins/sqlexplorer.

Then you should have directory D:\eclipse\myplugins\sqlexplorer\eclipse\features and

D:\eclipse\myplugins\sqlexplorer\eclipse\plugins

In other word, create directory D:\eclipse\myplugins\sqlexplorer\eclipse first, exact out the sqlexplorer.rar copy directory features, and plugins to it.

7. In Myeclipse, from the menu windows-->preference will find sqlexplorer

8. Install mysql, donwload mysql jdbc connector driver and put it on the %tomcat%\common\lib\

9.  Set the JDBC driver path in sqlexploer, make sure URL in sqlexplorer is correct setting. Then eclipse can connect to mysql on sqlexploerer view.

 

Even the environment was configured properly, I am still hesitate to learn JSP because of various reasons.
