Question : mysql connection using java and eclipse

Hello experts,

I am new to java and eclipse though I have some experience with programming and a lot with the SQL language.

I'd like to connect to my mysql database and retrieve information using eclipse if possible.

The database is located at secureserver.net (GoDaddy Linux Hosting Plan) and I have the mysql-connector-java file added properly. I just need something to get me started so I can continue developing.

Can anyone help?

Here is some relevant info:

      xcountry2.db.4795470.hostedresource.com

    * Server version: 5.0.67.d7-ourdelta-log
    * Server: xcountry2.db.4795470.hostedresource.com (97.74.31.93 via TCP/IP)
    * User: [email protected]

Have you download the  mysql-connector-java-5.1.8-bin.jar from mysql.com?
