Hi Rounak,

 worked. thank you very much.
 

Bear in mind that performance of LO using the JDBC connector degrades
rapidly (it was never stellar) once you reach a few thousand records, or
if you are using multiple joins and complex queries.

Also, the JDBC connector doesn't natively support NULL timestamps,
potentially causing crashes in LO on OSX, and it has various problems
with binary object support (e.g. video, audio, etc) other than images.
This is actually partly a limitation of LO, that does not fully
implement CLOB/BLOB binary streaming.

Found j connector instead. http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/
How to install it in Mac OS? Quite a few articles advice against setting
the Class variable like
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2509138/classpath-on-mac-and-how-does-mac-look-for-mysql-connector-java-bin-jar

and the rest of the things I have read are just too heavy to grasp. Please
guide me.

2013-05-11 Thread Dan Lewis
 The method of installing the j connector should be similar to 
installing it on any Operating System. from the MySQL website download 
the zip file to your desktop: mysql-connector-java-5.1.25.zip. Double 
click it to unzip it producing the mysql-connector-java-5.1.25 folder. 
Drag it to the Document folder. Open LibreOffice. Command + comma key 
combination opens a dialog. Look down the list the has LibreOffice at 
the top for Advanced. Click it. (This is the Java page of the dialog. 
Click the Class Path button to open the Class Path dialog. Now click 
the Add Archive button to browse to the location of 
mysql-connector-java-5.1.25-bin.jar. (It is in 
Document/mysql-connector-java-5.1.25/.) Highlight the file and click 
Open. The path to the file is now entered in the Class Path dialog. 
Click OK. Click OK in the Java page of the dialog. Now close 
LibreOffice. The connector has been installed in LibreOffice.
