Java Mysql Connector

807607Sep 24 2006 — edited Oct 12 2006

Hi everyone,

I started to work on JDBC but i have a few questions about the mysql connector.

I downloaded the .zip file and unzipped it to my desktop. Now i have a .jar file , a few folders , a installation guide and a read me file. But i couldn't understand the exact installation.

First of all where do i have to place this files? In which directory? I have a mysql database installed. But only the guide say is "calling the class.forname() function!"

I have no idea , what to place inside the forname function and where to install the connector files!

If u could tell me step by step i'll be really appreciate. Thanks for your helps.

Waiting for your answers :)
