John H. Embretsen commented on DERBY-2361:
------------------------------------------

My 2 cents:

I would say document all possible security mechanisms (with examples), even the 
defaults - it won't hurt. Just mark the defaults as defaults in certain 
scenarios. The defaults may change in the future, and having all options 
documented will save us some work when that happens.

Also, I think the following page needs to be updated to also mention the 
STRONG_PASSWORD_SUBSTITUTE_SECURITY mechanism (but perhaps that is something 
for another Jira):

> Documentation should give examples for using the different security mechanisms

> The Derby Server and Administration guide talks about the different security 
> mechanisms, but does not give examples of how these can be used via 
> connection URLs, it only mentions the client DataSource field names. 
> http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.2/adminguide/cadminapps49914.html
> The documentation should give examples of how to use the different security 
> mechanisms via connection URLs, and perhaps an example of how the client 
> field names would be used programmatically.
