I have downloaded the complete install package of netbeans for mac os x. now, somehow the uninstaller is missing and so the only way i could get rid of the old version was to delete the directory. unfortunately netbeans remembers all the previous settings and so automatic configuration of derby didn't take place. now, i separately installed derby too on my mac.
now, i created a database and connected to it from the services tab and by default it uses the client driver. i wrote the following code (with the help of the java se tutorial) to connect my app to the database...
Code:
package javaapplication7;
import java.sql.*;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try
{
Class.forName("org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientDriver");
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:derby://localhost:1527/sample");
}
catch(SQLException s)
{
System.out.println(s);
}
catch(ClassNotFoundException c)
{
System.out.println(c);
}
}
}
i get a ClassNotFoundException. Derby.jar is already added to the classpath in the Ant section in preferences. Please tell me what should i do?
PS: I have made posts on similar topics and sun forums and at apple developer discussions and they are yet unanswered.
