MySQL JDBC CRUD Examples

Getting Started

This project provides examples of how to perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, and Delete) operations on a MySQL database using JDBC in Java. The following operations are demonstrated:

• Creating a database
• Dropping a database
• Creating a table
• Dropping a table
• Inserting records into a table
• Selecting records from a table

Prerequisites

• MySQL server installed and running
• Java Development Kit (JDK) version 8 or later
• MySQL Server version 8.0 or later
• MySQL Connector/J, the official JDBC driver for MySQL
• An IDE of your choice (e.g. Eclipse, IntelliJ IDEA)

Usage

1. Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/xionse/MySQL-JDBC-CRUD-Examples.git
2. Import the project into your preferred Java IDE
3. Add the MySQL Connector/J library to the project's classpath
4. Update the JDBC connection settings in the source code to match your MySQL server's settings (username, password, and url)
5. Run the programe

Note

• Be careful when running the DropDatabase.java and DropTable.java examples as they will delete the specified database and table permanently.
• Be sure to close the statement and connection after using it in the finally block in each program.
• If the specified database or table does not exist, the program will throw an exception, you should consider handling it.

Built With

• Java version 8
• MySQL version 8.0
• MySQL Connector/J version 8.0
