Bryan Pendleton commented on DERBY-5565:
----------------------------------------
Good idea! Giving a better error message to people who try those old
client connections will be much nicer.
I haven't run JCC tests against the trunk in years.
> Network Server should reject client connections that are not Derby Network

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5565
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Kathey Marsden
>
> Since there have been no other network clients besides Derby Network Client
> tested or supported with Derby since 10.1 and since any protocol based client
> needs to understand Derby's DRDA extensions, deviations, and stored procedure
> usage. I think it would be a good idea in 10.9 for Network Server to
> outright reject any network clients that are not Derby Network Client.
> This would eliminate confusion up front for those that might not be aware
> that the DB2 Universal JDBC Driver and DB2 Runtime Client are not supported.
> They would get a clean reasonable error instead of hitting various protocol
> errors.
> Also it would mean if someone does want to add support for some network
> client in the future they would at least need to add the one or two lines of
> code in AppRequester to identify it, which I think would be a good thing.
> I think the code change would not be hard but the biggest impact might be
> anyone who still runs tests with JCC on trunk would need to disable those
> tests. There is a separate issue DERBY-4785 that Jayaram is working on to
> complete remove the JCC related code from the tests and test infrastructure.
