Re: Does MYSQL 8.0.13 works with Eclipse IDE?

[Filipe Silva]

Hi Karen,

It works, as long as you are using Java 8 or above. Connector/J 8.0 doesn't work with older JVM versions.

Is this about configuring a Database Connection in Eclipse Database Development perspective? If so, how are you configuring it?

If pure Java code, then please make sure you have the right jar in the project libraries build path and then get a Connection from the DriverManager or a DataSource class as usual. The Console view should show you any errors from the connection unless you are catching and absorbing the exceptions.
