We are developing an application for commercial distribution using a Java client, JDBC, and an SQL database . It will come in 2 versions - a standalone single-user version that will run on a PC and multi-user version where the database will run on a separate server.
For the standalone version we started using an embedded Java database. A number of issues are now causing me to look at MySql for both versions. For MySql to work, we need to --- 1. Install MySql "silently" along with the Java application - basically a one-click install. 2. Be able to start and shutdown MySql server when the application is started and shut-down. 3. No database maintenance - or able to automate whatever maintenance there is - preferably using a Java interface. Can MySql do the job? And if so, can someone point me in the right direction? For example, embedded MySql appears to require a C interface - could it also be made to work with JDBC? What is required for a silent install? Thanks for your insights. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
