how to create database in java

I am beginner in this and want to create a simple database in java. Before starting should i install anything? I am using netbeans. Thanks for helping for my simple questions.

Regards.

Hi devadam4,

You can use apache derby, which is an inbuilt database in netbeans IDE.
To begin with derby will do better.

"database in java"?

maybe you want to create a database and make java connect to it?

Take a start from here.

and what about eclipse i am working about .I indeed wants to practice database application with eclipse indigo so what do i need to begin with ?

There are so many IDEs where you can use for that. However, what you need is to learn the basis about Java databases and related. Did you search the web for tutorials and so on?

Did you try to find and read the following at least?

Trail: JDBC(TM) Database Access (The Java™ Tutorials)

hey thanks i has been studying the same since last night and got some basics indeed .i am working over eclipse and no other s.w i am using so what other s/w do i need .?

There are a lot. Search the forum, there is a well explained thread still going on about almost all the IDEs available for Java.

Personally I am using NetBeans, Eclipse for different purposes.

thanks for the help i am searching here and there in this forum solution to my puzzle

You are welcome.
