Dear all,
Next year I will be in the Final year of my Bachelor of Computer Applications degree. I am going to develop my Desktop Application Project in Java. I don't know how database can be added and which database is to be used. Can you guys please help me by suggesting the names of the databases that can be added in my Desktop Application. And from where can I get the basic tutorials of that Database..Thank you so much...


Regards

How about doing some research?
Do you have at least any clue what kind of database you need?

Manfred R. Bihy : Till now I have developed Applications in .Net which was using SQL Server as Database. Accordingly I don't have any idea about Java...So having no knowledge about topic what should I search... Please Help me... :(

See my solution for some Research hints. :)

The magic word for you is JDBC[^]. What level of JDBC is for you to decide as we haven't the slightest clue what your application is supposed to do. All the major RDBMs have support for JDBC all you have to do is look it up via google.

MS SQL Server
MySQL Server
Adabas
Oracle
DB2
Postgres
Btrieve


Regards,

Thank you Manfred...:) You were very much helpful...:)
This[^] should tell you everything that you need to know about getting started with databases in java.

How will googling "Java" help OP? Just curious, you know. :)

It probably would not but my original java + database would :-)

If you compare the original Version to the one I edited you'll see that yours only had "java+" in it.
Just click on the link above or here: v2 and you'll see. It could be this bug I've read about in the bugs and sugs forum, that links are sometimes truncated after they were posted. It's a good idea to check the links after you posted them as I too have already been bitten by this bug quite a few times.

Cheers!
