Hi,

The SDK does not support this, there is no JDBC driver code distributed with
Android and there is no MySQL database server running in the system.
Android SDK ships with a inbuilt SQLite DB, which will be easier to use.
Else, you may want search for keyword "jdbc" on the groups, you will find a
couple of threads with discussions on the different alternatives for using
MySQL, Oracle, etc in your Android apps.

Thanks,
Megha
