Developer's Guide statement on shutting down Derby needs qualification
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DERBY-4377
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4377
Project: Derby
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Documentation
Affects Versions: 10.5.3.0
Reporter: Kim Haase
Priority: Minor
The topic "Shutting down Derby or an individual database"
(http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/dev/devguide/tdevdvlp40464.html) begins,
"Applications in an embedded environment shut down the Derby system by
specifying the shutdown=true attribute in the connection URL. To shut down the
system, you do not specify a database name, and you must not specify any other
attribute."
This statement actually needs some qualification, because (according to
Francois Orsini) "if you have defined Derby's BUILT-IN user authentication at
the System level (e.g. setting username / password in derby.properties file)"
you do need to specify a username and password when you shut down the database.
The topic needs to include this information. Further suggestions on the wording
are welcome.
