Connector/MXJ and Connector/J work together to enable you to
launch an instance of the mysqld server
through the use of a keyword in the JDBC connection string.
Deploying Connector/MXJ within a Java application can be
automated through this method, making the deployment of
Connector/MXJ a simple process:
Download and unzip Connector/MXJ, add
mysql-connector-mxj-gpl-[ver].jarto theCLASSPATH.If you are using Connector/MXJ v5.0.4 or later you will also need to add the
mysql-connector-mxj-gpl-[ver]-db-files.jarfile to yourCLASSPATH.To the JDBC connection string, embed the
mxjkeyword, for example:jdbc:mysql:mxj://localhost:.PORT/DBNAME
