Hello All,

I am learning Cocoa and would like to develop an application that can connect to a database, such as MySQL. However, I cannot find any tutorial, nor drivers in order to connect to a MySQL database, in such a way JDBC works with Java. How can one do so?

I was also wondering if storing data to a database is a good design pattern for Cocoa, since Apple provides something I haven't had time to look at yet: Core Data. I am simply developing a small project that will run locally on my machine, so I can get more exposure to developing with Cocoa. I am used to Java, where I would connect to a DB via JDBC, but if Core Data is providing a stable and fast way to store data, I would definitely have a look at it. From a performance point of view, is Core Data worth it? What should I consider in my design to either use a standard database vs. Core Data?

Thanks for any help!

Mathieu
