Exploring a Database [message #117852] Tue, 15 November 2005 11:25 Go to next message

I would like to see if I can migrate my Java database application
development to Eclipse. I would like to be able to open an HSQLDB, view all
the tables and columns, and execute simple ad-hoc SQL queries from inside
the IDE.

I downloaded Eclipse 3.1.1 and got it started. I went to
New->Other->Connection Profile and walked through the wizard. My "ping" was
successful, but I could not view my connection profiles after that. What do
I do so I can view what is in the DB?

I downloaded the DTP M1 plug-in hoping it would give me a "Data Source
Explorer" view like the screenshots (http://www.eclipse.org/datatools/), but
I must not be installing and running it correctly.

I use HSQLDB a lot under Eclipse. I use a plugin called sqlexplorer. I
have had no problems with it. It's nice,small and meet all my needs. You
jut have to install into the plugin subdirectory and define your
connections. It has it's own perspective. Runs in place or server
connection to Eclipse.

Hi IchBin,

After a little more experimentation with the IDE, I was able to get the
"Database Explorer" view to expand to show my tables, indexes, etc.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll download sqlexplorer and try it out.
