Create tables in MySQL using JDev

Steps:

• Setup MySQL
• Setup JDev
• Create a new JDev Application
• Create a new Database Diagram with a sample Table
• Add columns to the table
• Create a database connection from JDev to MySQL
• and Publish the Table to MySQL

Note:  Put the mysql-connector-java-3.1.14-bin.jar in the lib path (JDEV or JDK) to avoid Driver Not Found type errors. Google mysql connector and you should find the installer or zip file – once you extract it you can copy the jar into your lib path (if there is a “proper” way – i.e. extract and set the classpath on windows so that JDEV knows where to look for this driver jar then do it that way).
