Kim Haase commented on DERBY-5024:
----------------------------------
Thanks, Rick -- that helps, since DERBY-4741 is a large and daunting JIRA.
One question for starters:
"If a Thread is interrupted and the flag is not cleared" ...
What flag is that? Is this the "interrupted status" that is tested by
interrupted() and isInterrupted() but is otherwise not accessible
programmatically?
> Document the behavior of interrupt handling.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5024
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation
> Affects Versions: 10.8.0.0
> Reporter: Rick Hillegas
> Assignee: Kim Haase
>
> DERBY-4741 improves Derby's handling of interrupts. Now the engine does not
> fall over when an interrupt occurs. Instead, at worst, Derby only kills the
> Connection which is running when the interrupt happens. And sometimes that
> Connection will survive too so that the interrupt is silently swallowed. The
> exact behavior has been discussed on DERBY-4741 from 2011-02-10 onward.
