Install and configure a MySQL database

Is there any binary release of Java 7 (using the Mac/BSD-port project) anywhere? Some blogs (e.g. Building Java 7 on Mac OS X) have a detailed instructions to build the jdk from source, but I was hoping that someone have a binary of it available for download. The problem with the instructions is that it's quite annoying to get all the version numbers correct, and slight variations might lead. How to install Java JDK (Java Development kit 12) on Mac OS. Download and install Java on Mac OS X. We will also update the JAVAHOME environment variable ne.

To install the database, you don't need to install Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5. If you run into any issues installing and configuring the database, look at the README.txt file included in the DMG Archive for some useful tips.

  2. Double-click the DMG Archive, and then double-click the .pkg file that starts with mysql-5.5. Follow the instructions to install the MySQL server.
  3. Double-click the MySQLStartupItem.pkg file, and follow the instructions in the setup wizard. The wizard installs the MySQL server as an auto-startup item.
  4. Double-click the MySQL.prefPane file. The file installs the MySQL control panel into the System Preferences application so that you can control the MySQL server.
  5. Open the System Preferences application, and perform the following actions:

    3. At the bottom of the control panel, you can also configure the MySQL server to run automatically on startup.
  6. To make it easier to access the mysql and mysqladmin programs, you can modify the PATH environment variable by performing the following actions:
    1. From a terminal window in your home directory, type the following command:
    2. Add the following statement to your existing PATH environment variable, or create a new entry if a PATH variable isn't already defined:
    3. Close the current terminal window, and open a new one for the changes to the PATH variable to take effect.
  7. From the terminal window, type the following command to set the root password:

    2. Open the configuration file by typing the following command:
    3. Add the following statements to the [mysqld] section of my.cnf file:

      The first statement configures the database so that it behaves like a traditional SQL database management system. The remaining statements configure the database so that it uses a UTF-8 character encoding.

      If you want to use a case-insensitive collation instead of a case-sensitive one, change collation_server to utf8_unicode_ci.

    4. Copy the modified my.cnf to /etc by typing the following command:
    5. Open the System Preferences application, and in the Other section, click the MySQL icon.
    6. Stop the MySQL server, and then start it again for the changes to take effect.

Hopefully, by now, everyone knows that Apple joined the OpenJDK project last year. What does that mean?

  • Apple will contribute the code that they used for their private Mac Java builds as GPL code to OpenJDK
  • Oracle will take over the stewardship of the Mac port of Java
  • Over time, the Mac platform will become a completely first-class citizen in the Java world

This is good news for Java developers who want to develop on Mac. It’s also good news for Mac users – as it means that, for example, the native Aqua look-and-feel will continue to be supported – so Java desktop apps on Mac will look lovely. I, for one, can’t wait to see what Nimbus look-and-feel will look like under native Aqua.

Over the last few days, there have been some developments – for example this wiki page, detailing the progress of the Mac port, has appeared. Buried at the bottom of the page is a link to a page where the open bugs for the Mac port are being publicly tracked (as they’re ported across from Apple’s internal system). Program for writing on mac shortcut.

Development is focused around JDK 7 – the basic idea is to take a fork of the community-maintained BSD port, and add Apple’s code to it, to produce a Mac-specific port. Relevant bug fixes should be able to go both ways between the two related ports, where possible.

All of this is likely to take time, however. The official line from Oracle is that JDK 7 will GA with Windows, Linux and Solaris as first-class supported operating systems, and the Mac will release as soon as possible after, with the hope that at some point in the future updates for the Mac version will be released at the same time as other OSes.

This applies to the Oracle-supplied binary builds. Of course, the OpenJDK code (which Oracle regard as the reference implementation) will be available (and GPL) for anyone who wants to build their own binary.

Here at java7developer.com, we think that we could be looking at roughly a 3 month gap between Java 7 GA and a Mac release – so maybe October 2011 if all goes well. For now, we’re pretty happy running the community-provided OpenJDK builds. There are occasional problems with non-fatal X11-related exceptions clogging up standard out – due to some of the Mac’s uniqueness, but on the whole, it’s not bad at all for a pre-release product.
