please i need help on packaging my java software with sql database in one
package as many softwares are online without installing them separately.
this has been my major challenge in developing a software as a young
programmer.
thanks.
If you want your Java application accessible online, you can use Java
Enterprise Edition (JEE). It's basically a web framework for Java. However, it's
quite advanced. For distributing your desktop application with an embedded
database, use SQLite instead of MySQL, it doesn't have to be installed.
please am done with the standalone application using sqlite database ,how can
I package it with the app for the user to use.
am using Advanced Installer as deploying tool.
thanks from Jones.
SQLite database is just about the .jar file with the SQLite JDBC driver and
the .sqlite3 file with your database. You can attach those files to your
application in the Advanced installer. There might be a problem with modifying
the database file if you install your application in the Program files folder,
you should keep the .sqlite3 file in the appdata folder where your users will
always have privileges to modify it.
