MySQL and J2ME

Hello.
I'm building an application for mobile phones that should get data from an mySQL database.
I would like to know what's the simplest way to do this. The database will be very small. Can I do this directly, doing a query to the database or I have to use PHP or some kind of servlet?
In case of servlets, do they need to be installed on the server or they're just those JSP files?
Thanks for the help.

You're not helping me. yes I am.
You are basically saying to me
to look for information on Google.
No I didn't! But I should have. Your question is very vague.
Let me try again. Your question is not specific to J2ME. Do you understand that?
So you can do it one of two ways.
1) Just a normal web page created with whatever. There is no need for a code sample for this. There are many, many examples and tutorials available.
2) Create a webservice and access it like that.
I posted the link to Wikipedia because I wanted YOU to read it and then come back and say if you want a webservice or not. If you don't know what a webservice is than that link explains it.
Can anyone give me specific directions, please?Please refrain from being rude and unpleasant.
And .jsp = J2EE?
JSP is part of J2EE yes.

  • Issue in bringing up CRS on ATG 10.1.1 with MySQL and Weblogic 10.3

    Hello,
    I am trying to bring up Commerce Reference Store as part of my evaluation using MySQL (bundled with ATG) and WebLogic 10.3.
    I followed the ATG Documentation on CRS with WebLogic and MySQL and I could not proceed because of the below error log. I keep getting error in OnlineCreateServerInstanceTask of CIM. I believe it should be some configuration problem, but could not think of any.
    As part of the installation, I use C:\jdk1.6.0_25. I verified my weblogic server is up through the admin console. I started MySQL before running the eval batch. Apart from starting MySQL server, I did not make any datasource/database configuration changes for ATG. I have not run any other scripts to configure MySQL too.
    Please guide me to resolve the problem.

    Thanks.

    This error is resolved after following the logs in C:\ATG\ATG10.1.1\CIM\log\cim.log. The root cause is I used http as protocol instead of t3 while specifying weblogic admin url.
    http://localhost:7001 instead of t3://localhost:7001

  • Performance with MySQL and Database connectivity toolbox

    Hi!
    I'm having quite some problems with the performance of MySQL and Database connectivity toolbox. However, I'm very happy with the ease of using database connectivity toolbox. The background is:
    I have 61 variables (ints and floats) which I would like to save in the MySQL-database. This is no problem, however, the loop time increases from 8ms to 50ms when using the database. I have concluded that it has to do with the DB Tools Insert Data.vi and I think that I have some kind of performance issue with this VI. The CPU never reach more the 15% of its maximum performance. I use a default setup and connect through ODBC.
    My questions are:
    1. I would like to save 61 variables each 8-10ms, is this impossible using this solution?
    2. Is there any way of increasing the performance of the DB Tools Insert Data.vi or use any other VI?
    3. Is there any way of adjusting the MySQL setup to achieve better performance?
    Thank you very much for your time.
    Regards,
    Mattias

    First of all, thank you very much for your time. All of you have been really good support to me.
    >> Is your database on a different computer?  Does your loop execute 61 times? 
    Database is on the same computer as the MySQL server.
    The loop saves 61 values at once to the database, in one SQL-statement.
    I have now added the front panel and block diagram for my test-VI. I have implemented the queue system and separate loops for producer and consumer. However, since the queue is building up faster then the consumer loop consumes values, the queue is building up quite fast and the disc starts working.
    The test database table that I add data to is created by a simple:
    create table test(aa int, bb char(15));
    ...I'm sure that this can be improved in some way.
    I always open and close the connection to the database "outside the loop". However, it still takes some 40-50 ms to save the data to the database table - so, unfortunatly no progress to far. I currently just want to save the data.
    Any more advise will be gratefully accepted.
    Regards,
    Mattias

  • MySQL and JDBC Classpath errors

    I am new to Java and installed MySql and also installed mysql-connectorJ driver. I can compile the code below, but when I go to run it, I get "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: JDBCDemo/class" error. I can't figure out what I am doing wrong.

    MySql and am running into problems. I am installing the relavent
    software and am then unable to find it on my Mac, the startup files
    are there but the actual MySql data appears to not be installed
    despite my computer telling me it is...... I am using a G3 running
    OSX 10.4 is this good enough? I noticed talk of needing a PowerPC
    or Intel mac. Is this the case?
    Also, would I need MySql installed on my actual computer if
    the my servers have it already? And does Dreamweaver 8 have both of
    these programs installed as standard?
    If you could help out I would be very appreciative as I would
    like to learn this stuff and I appear to be struggling at the
    outset....
    Cheers

    MySQL is a relational database management system that
    comprises a
    database server and several utility programs. Although you
    install it
    like any other program on a Mac, the similarity stops there.
    First, the point about PowerPC and Intel Macs is that there
    are
    different versions of the MySQL installer for each type of
    processor.
    I'm pretty sure that a G3 is OK, but you must choose the
    PowerPC version
    of MySQL, not the 64-bit or x86 (Intel Mac) version.
    Once you have installed MySQL, you need to drag the
    MySQL.PrefPane icon
    from the disk image onto your System Preferences. This
    installs a
    Preference Pane that enables you to start and stop MySQL. The
    Preference
    Pane has an option to start up MySQL automatically, but in my
    experience, it doesn't work on Tiger. You need to open the
    Preference
    Pane, and click Start MySQL Server each time you start your
    computer.
    The best way to work with MySQL is to use a graphical
    interface, such as
    phpMyAdmin. As Osgood has mentioned, I have written a book
    about PHP and
    Dreamweaver, which goes into all the necessary details. It's
    also very
    Mac-friendly with separate instructions where necessary for
    PC and Mac.

  • Database setup with MySQL and PHP question

    Hello all,
    I recently had a problem getting a report to work for a site I was updating.  This site is written in PHP with a MySQL database.  The application is to track customer calls to auto repair stores.  The database has a lot of foreign keys because they wanted to update information in only one spot and have multiple records be updated all at once.  So, I've got all the information from individual calls saved in the call_log table, and have foreign keys to reference information in other tables (for example this table lists what store received the call referencing the store table).  If a store changes locations, they want to have reports automatically update with the new address, connection to conversation number, etc.
    In one of the responses to my question on how to get this report to work, I was told that this could be done without using foreign keys (by Normalizing the database using mapping tables).  I am still a newbie to MySQL, and after looking though a lot of manuals, tutorials, and forum posts, I am more confused now than ever.
    I got the report to work using the foreign keys, but I would like to learn what I should have done with the database (and how to get the information displayed).
    So for example one report would be displaying the following:
               Store                                                      Reason for the Customer Call
                                               breaks             oil change            shocks              tune up         total calls
    5636 - Bloomington                  2                       4                        0                       2                   8
    8875 - Duluth                           1                       6                       4                        8                  19
    with links on the store name to pull up the information on that specific store.  How would I change the database (listed below) to do this without foreign keys?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    call_log             (table that contains the following:)
    call_id
    conv_number
    date
    camp_type         (foreign key to the campaign table so it displays the campaign_id)
    reason               (foreign key to the call_reason table so it displays the reason_id)
    location              (foreign key to the store table so it displays the store_id)
    associate
    call_summary
    trainig_issue      (foreign key to the training_points table so it displays the training_key_id)
    visit_closed
    example            (foreign key to the example_type table so it displays the example_id)
    campaign          (table that contains the following:)
    campaign_id
    campaign_name
    campaign_promotion
    campaign_coupon
    campaign_startdate
    campaign_enddate
    call_reason       (table that contains the following:)
    reason_id
    reason
    store               (table that contains the following:)
    store_id
    store_number
    store_address
    store_city
    store_state
    store_postalcode
    store_name
    store_phone
    store_email
    store_mgr
    training_points  (table that contains the following:)
    training_key_id
    key_issue
    policy
    example_type  (table that contains the following:)
    example_id
    example_name
    example_image
    Thank you very much.

    Frankly, that is way to much of a question to be answered in detail on a forum... There's a lot involved and a lot of general database understanding required. I would highly recommend:

  • How to bulk import data into CQ5 from MySQL and file system

    Is there an easy way to bulk import data into CQ5 from MySQL and file system?  Some of the files are ~50MB each (instrument files).  There are a total of ~1,500 records spread over about 5 tables.
    Thanks

    What problem are you having writing it to a file?
    You can't use FORALL to write the data out to a file, you can only loop through the entries in the collection 1 by 1 and write them out to the file like that.
    FORALL can only be used for SQL statements.

  • Secure mysql and ease of programming

    Hello,
    How/what do I set up so that I do not have to include in all my jsp files the connection information to my mysql database for my application? It is tedious to have to set up the try...catch..finally stuff everytime I want to have a query in my jsp files. I am using mysql and jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4.
    David

    Why don't you write a Database class, then when you want to access the database you can just create an instance of this class and call a method that does the connection, the trys & catches etc.
    eg you could have a method with signature
    public ResultSet exQuery(String query) etc etc.
    Much better practice to only have one class that accesses the database - esp if you want to change drivers, connection methods etc in the future.

  • Educational Use of JMF and J2ME WTS

    Dear all,

    Would any kind soul please enlighten me where I can get such information?
    Thank you.

  • Apache, MySQL, and PHP

    I am new PHP development and working on a test project. I've installed Apache, MySQL and PHP on my Windows XP box and now I'm a little confused. I created a database and some sample code to retrieve data. Now, on a server I'm using which supports this how do I upload this to the server for use?
    I hope this makes sense. Is there a built-in app for that or do I upload my created db to the server.
    UPDATE: I forgot to add that I am working locally and now would like to port this over to my domain and server. My host uses a linux box with apache.
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi,
    Download the mysql admin gui from here : http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/gui-tools/5.0.html
    If your host server allows connections from other hosts you can use the mysql gui to connect to the local database as well as the host database and export the tables to your new database on the host. This is the way I prefer to do it... but some hosts only allow SQL connections from the localhost itself which basically means you won't be able to connect to it using the mysql gui tools.
    However you can still generate the database scripts from the gui tools and login to your hosts mysql manager - possibly phpMyAdmin and then simply execute the SQL script.
    Hope this helps,
    Brendan
