JDK Documentation Installation on Windows
This section describes how to install JDK Documentation on your own machine.
To learn JDBC more effectively, you definitely need to have a copy of the JDK Documentation installed on your own machine. JDK Documentation provides you detailed information of all classes and methods used in JDK. Here is what I did to download and install JDK 12 Documentation on my local machine.
- Open the Java SE Download page with this URL: https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/.
- Click the "DOWNLOAD" button next to "Java SE 12 Documentation". You will see "Java SE Development Kit 12 Documentation" page showing up.
- Check the "Accept License Agreement" radio button.
- Click the hyper link of "jdk-12.0.1_doc-all.zip" in the "Java SE Development Kit 12 Documentation" section.
- Save the download file "jdk-12.0.1_doc-all.zip" to a temporary directory.
- Double-click on "jdk-12.0.1_doc-all.zip" to extract all files to "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-12.0.1 directory. The installation of JDK 12 Documentation is done.
To verify the installation, open the C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-12.0.1\docs\index.html with a Web browser. You should see the JDK 12 Documentation starting page similar to the picture below:
Click the JDBC link on the JDK Documentation page to see what documentations are available for JDBC.
