Getting started guide: Incomplete instructions for compiling WwdEmbedded.java
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DERBY-3518
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3518
Project: Derby
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Documentation
Affects Versions: 10.3.2.1
Reporter: John H. Embretsen
Priority: Minor
In the Getting Started with Derby manual's Self-study tutorial for users new to
Derby, there is an Activity 3 which describes how to run a JDBC program using
the embedded driver:
http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/dev/getstart/twwdactivity3_Setup.html .
In step 2, the guide says:
<quote>
Compile the WwdEmbedded.java program.
javac WwdEmbedded.java
</quote>
Since WwdEmbedded.java (available from
<bin-installation>/demo/programs/workingwithderby/) references the WwdUtils
class, WwdUtils.java needs to be copied and compiled as well. Otherwise,
compiling will fail with:
WwdEmbedded.java:80: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : variable WwdUtils
location: class WwdEmbedded
if (! WwdUtils.wwdChk4Table(conn))
^
WwdEmbedded.java:92: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : variable WwdUtils
location: class WwdEmbedded
answer = WwdUtils.getWishItem();
^
2 errors
The manual should be updated to reflect this requirement.
