For reasons that are mystifying me, in tests that prepare a statement which deal with stored procedures/functions (either to create or to drop), the client hangs waiting for a description of the input parameters.
This seems fairly unlikely, but the symptoms you describe match bug 492 http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-492 quite closely. When that bug occurs, one of its manifestations is for the server to truncate the internal buffer holding the messages that it's sending back to the client, and the result is a hang on the client side since the server doesn't send all the data that it's promised it would send. I don't know how your changes would have made this bug more likely to appear. Still, to rule it out, you could apply, in your client, the patches that I've posted for DERBY-492, and see if the symptoms change. thanks, bryan
