Kim Haase created DERBY-6647:
--------------------------------
Summary: The ij.driver property is obsolete and need not be
documented
Key: DERBY-6647
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6647
Project: Derby
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Documentation
Affects Versions: 10.11.0.0
Reporter: Kim Haase
Assignee: Kim Haase
Priority: Minor
The ij.driver property is not useful any more and can be removed from the
documentation. According to Rick Hillegas, "The purpose of the ij.driver
property is to tell ij to manually load a driver class via
Class.forName().newInstance(). That's the ancient way of loading drivers. The
modern way is to rely on driver autoloading."
The Driver command may still be useful for reloading the driver after the Derby
engine has been shut down and the driver deregistered, so that can be kept.
