Hello All,
I am learning Cocoa and would like to develop an application that can
connect to a database, such as MySQL. However, I cannot find any
tutorial, nor drivers in order to connect to a MySQL database, in such
a way JDBC works with Java. How can one do so?
I was also wondering if storing data to a database is a good design
pattern for Cocoa, since Apple provides something I haven't had time
to look at yet: Core Data. I am simply developing a small project
that will run locally on my machine, so I can get more exposure to
developing with Cocoa. I am used to Java, where I would connect to a
DB via JDBC, but if Core Data is providing a stable and fast way to
store data, I would definitely have a look at it. From a performance
point of view, is Core Data worth it? What should I consider in my
design to either use a standard database vs. Core Data?
Thanks for any help!
Mathieu
