Daniel Le Berre updated DERBY-7097: ----------------------------------- Description: In earlier version of Derby, and as reported in the documentation, the EmbeddedDriver class was in derby.jar. As such, it was quite easy to deploy a webapp with an embedded derby database: it was sufficient to just add a derby.jar file to the project library. In current releases of derby (10.15.2.0), the EmbeddedDriver class is no longer in the derby.jar file but in the derbytools.jar file. ``` $ for i in `ls *.jar`; do echo $i ; jar tf $i | grep Driver ; done derby.jar org/apache/derby/iapi/jdbc/AutoloadedDriver$1.class org/apache/derby/iapi/jdbc/AutoloadedDriver.class org/apache/derby/iapi/jdbc/Driver42.class org/apache/derby/iapi/jdbc/InternalDriver$1.class org/apache/derby/iapi/jdbc/InternalDriver$2.class org/apache/derby/iapi/jdbc/InternalDriver$3.class org/apache/derby/iapi/jdbc/InternalDriver$4.class org/apache/derby/iapi/jdbc/InternalDriver$5.class org/apache/derby/iapi/jdbc/InternalDriver$DaemonThreadFactory.class org/apache/derby/iapi/jdbc/InternalDriver$LoginCallable.class org/apache/derby/iapi/jdbc/InternalDriver.class META-INF/services/java.sql.Driver derbyLocale_cs.jar derbyLocale_de_DE.jar derbyLocale_es.jar derbyLocale_fr.jar derbyLocale_hu.jar derbyLocale_it.jar derbyLocale_ja_JP.jar derbyLocale_ko_KR.jar derbyLocale_pl.jar derbyLocale_pt_BR.jar derbyLocale_ru.jar derbyLocale_zh_CN.jar derbyLocale_zh_TW.jar derbyclient.jar org/apache/derby/client/ClientAutoloadedDriver.class META-INF/services/java.sql.Driver derbynet.jar derbyoptionaltools.jar derbyrun.jar derbyshared.jar derbytools.jar org/apache/derby/jdbc/ClientDriver.class org/apache/derby/jdbc/ClientDriver40.class org/apache/derby/jdbc/EmbeddedDriver.class ``` As such, most of the tutorials found on the internet about "how to use derby in embedded mode" are just wrong because they simply mention derby.jar as a dependency. Worst, derby own documentation is not up to date: as such, I had no way to understand why new releases of this tool that I have been using for more than a decade in the classroom suddenly did not work anymore. The explanation is finally simple: I just wonder how such impacting decision could be done without proper documentation. I am also surprised to be the first one reporting this, since the problem exists since at least a year. was: In earlier version of Derby, and as reported in the documentation, the EmbeddedDriver class was in derby.jar.
