Connecting to database in Java

Question

Why doesn't these tutorials explain how to connect to databases?

Answer 1

Java is a language that is not directly related to network and the internet. To connect a project in Java to a database you'll need to import a library which is no longer a part of the official guide to Java since there are many libraries and none of them is Sun's (Oracle's).

Anyway, there are more than enough guides on the internet on how to connect your Java project to a database.

Answer 2

Thanks for the answer. I'm just thinking, not possible to make a game without db connection, right? But most games on Android use Java.

Answer 3

My expert knowledge is in php. That's easy in terms of db connection. Lol

Answer 4

Because it is an extension, and will ever be. No. Matter of the practicality

Answer 5

Thanks Eldar. My expertise is in web programming. As I learn computer programming (and app development) I find the database usage hard to grasp. Like how to create user accounts and store user into in database.

Answer 6

Is there another language I should be learning in conjunction with Java that will solve my db issues?

Answer 7

SQL
