New versions of the Derby network client should work with > old versions of the server. Currently that means that the 10.1 client should > be tested on the trunk. The 10.2 client definitely needs to be tested > with the 10.1 server before release, but it would be good to start testing > snapshots of 10.2 client on the 10.1 branch earlier. > > Note: > Bug fixes may mean that the canons differ for different versions. > The test harness I think is set up to allow different masters for different > versions. It at least has that functionality for the DerbyNet framework > and it could be expanded to cover DerbyNetClient. The way it works is that > the harness checks for a masters in the following order: > functionTests/master/<framework>/ver<version> > functionTests/master/<framework>/ > functionTests/master/ -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
