eclipse and database management

I just stumbled over a usefull Database browser and query editor called Eclipse SQL Explorer.

Installation does not work from within eclipse. I couldn't add the provided channel and had to download the zip file then extracted it in the eclipse directory.





Drivers

Drivers don't ship withthe tool. these must first be fetched maually or every product.

Fortunately SUN has a list of available JDBC Drivers which helps to find (mostly commercial) drivers. Open Drivers I have used:

• sqlite
• mysql Conenctor/J 5.1 (apt-get install libmysql-java libpgjava)
