Kim Haase created DERBY-6459:
--------------------------------
Summary: Remove Class.forName calls that load JDBC driver from
Derby samples/demos
Key: DERBY-6459
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6459
Project: Derby
Issue Type: Sub-task
Components: Demos/Scripts
Affects Versions: 10.11.0.0
Reporter: Kim Haase
Several of the Derby samples and demos call Class.forName to load the JDBC
driver, although this is not necessary at Java SE 6 and later. Since at 10.11
we won't support versions of the platform earlier than JDK 6, these calls
should be removed from the samples (and any mention of them removed from the
accompanying documentation).
There are calls to Class.forName that load other objects besides the driver; I
assume these are still needed, but if not, they could be replaced with
something more current.
