I am learning Java and I'd like to use MySQL to create, delete and
update databases using Java. I have done this with C++ SQLite, but now,
as I said, I want to port my code to Java [not easy for a Java nubby].
However, the MySQL installer [mysql-installer-web-community-5.7.18.1]
has several choices of which I am not familiar. I don't use MS-Office at
all, I use OpenOffice, so, when at the "Choosing a Setup Type" window,
'Developer Default' requires some MS products I do not have. I tried the
other options, but I think they also require MS Office and/or VS.

What would you recommend me in this case?

TIA
