I want to connect a mysql database with eclipse, i have the "java developers" edition of eclipse indigo 3.7.1 and in a lot of tutorials says "open the database development perspective " for connect, but.......

The Java EE Eclipse edition comes with some plugins preinstalled.

Install the Database Tools Platform (DTP) Plugin. Here is a tutorial.
