I am looking for some documentation about Connector/J Type 4 JDBC driver
to access mySQL database.
I want to know the driver name, jar file and URL format.
I found that www.sourceforge.net no longer provide org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver driver which was being used by to access mySQL
Thanks in advance

did you read any further?
there is a link to all the stuff on the source forge page. it has been renamed and there are some improvements but it is really the next version of the same driver.
anyway go here http://www.mysql.com/downloads/api-jdbc-stable.html
and download the ZIP or the compressed TAR.
this contains all the files including source.
the url is the same as the older driver starting with jdbc:mysql
also the driver is backwards compartible (including loading) so if you are loading the old driver like this...
Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver");
then this will now register the com.mysql.jdbc Driver which is the new one.
