Yes, the plan. The master plan. What is it? The grand vision will be laid out here. I'll work on the details later. So, what is this thing? Well, it involves a database. It involves a webpage. I click on things. Stuff gets pulled out of the database. I type some stuff in the webpage. Stuff gets written to the database. That's the big picture.
Obviously, that isn't very much detail. I already knew that from my previous post. Even though I was the father of some great ideas. So let me elaborate, but slightly.
Lets see, language to use: Java. I've used it before. It makes sense. Its popular. _Hopefully_ knowing it better will let me improve and move on. The opportunity cost here is that I am giving up the chance to learn something else... but I will live with that for today. I am guessing this will be the application tier.
Lets see, I need a database. Someone suggested MySQL. So I went for it. I originally thought of using Oracle or SQL Server. But I'll use Connector/J, use JDBC and learn something out of that.
The so called webpage? Well, I say we use tomcat 6. Should help to fiddle around with that. I want to create JSPs on there to manipulate the data I want to get out. So far so good?
What am I going to use to create this? I am going to use an IDE. I've used NetBeans before. Never used Eclipse. Have wanted to for a while. So I will.
I am sure I've forgotten things here, but I feel good right now. So I'll stop.
