jdbc 4.0 in Ubuntu 12.04

  • 772

I'm developing an application using Java and MySQL. I've installed libmysql-java package as a database connector, but the installed connector implements version 3.0 of the JDBC specification.

Does anybody know which packages or connectors are needed to install for using JDBC 4.0 in Ubuntu 12.04 using MySQL.

I'm using

  • Java (java version "1.7.0_04")
  • MySQL (mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.5.22)
java

    According to this page 5.1.x versions of Connector/J supports JDBC 4.0 and the version of Connector/J available in latest Ubuntu repository is libmysql-java 5.1.16-2. So the driver you are using probably supports JDBC 4.0.

  2. One can download the latest connector from the MySQL website

    Extract the tar and use mysql-connector-java-5.1.20-bin.jar as mysql-connector
