Installation - Eclipse link and derby for JPA

EclipseLink

Download the EclipseLink implementation from http://www.eclipse.org/eclipselink/downloads/ . The download contains several jars. We need the following jars:

• eclipselink.jar
  
• javax.persistence_2.0.X.jar
  

Derby Database

The example later will be using Apache Derby as a database. Download Derby from http://db.apache.org/derby/ From this tutorial we will need the "derby.jar". For details on Derby (which is not required for this tutorial) please see Apache Derby .
