Rafael Soares commented on DERBY-4381:
--------------------------------------

Indeed, this will be a side effect of that fix. It will not work if the 
database name itself has a round bracket. However, as a programmer or database 
manager you have control over this, thus I still think this fix should be 
considered.

Of course, a better way to fix this is support for the jar path by system 
property, say:
derby.database.jarpath

And then use this property for the jar file path, when set.

> In 64 bit windows vista OS, if an executable is 32 bit than it is generally 
> installed under 
> "C:\Program Files (x86)" folder. The brackets in the path cause problems 
> while connecting
> to any database stored in that folder(in jar format) through derby JDBC.
> The effective connection string is :
> jdbc:derby:jar:(C:/Program Files(86)/ClassicModels.jar)ClassicModels 
> This fails because the closing brackets is not escaped. 
> I looked into the documentation and didn't find references to escaping the 
> brackets in the path. 
> I think this problem should be reproducible on all platforms.
> you cannot connect to it,
