Bryan Pendleton commented on DERBY-5920:
----------------------------------------
I'm +1 to supporting other network clients; I'd like to encourage open
interoperability if at all possible.
David, several questions:
1) Have you made a proposed patch to re-enable the support for your client?
2) Have you run the existing Derby regression tests with your client?
3) Is your client freely available? Or is it a licensed product? I guess I'm
wondering
how other Derby developers would go about verifying that some future
modification
or enhancement to the Derby client/server behaviors works correctly with your
client.
I think it would be great if you could attach a proposed patch which shows the
details
of re-enabling support for your client.
Regarding testing, the starting point for learning about the Derby regression
test
suite is: (a) java/testing/README.htm in the trunk source, and (b) the Derby
wiki
at http://wiki.apache.org/db-derby/DerbyJUnitTesting
> Network Server should accept DRDA connections from drivers with the StarQuest
> PRDID "SIG"

> Key: DERBY-5920
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5920
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Network Server
> Affects Versions: 10.9.1.0
> Environment: Any
> Reporter: David Brown
> Labels: DRDA, SIG, StarQuest, StarSQL, client, network
>
> Background - Refer to DERBY-5565
> "Derby Network Server has been changed to reject client connections from
> clients that are not Derby Network Client (Those that do not send PRDID
> starting with DNC).
> Rationale for Change: There are currently no known supported network clients
> for Derby Network Server other than Derby Network Client."
> This is incorrect - StarQuest Ventures has a shipping DRDA-compliant network
> client "StarSQL for Java" that has supported Derby since August 2008. It is
> listed at http://wiki.apache.org/db-derby/UsesOfDerby.
> This change means that we can now only use an older version of Derby until
> our PRDID is added.
> Our PRDID is SIG - see
> http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v7r1m0/index.jsp?topic=%2Fddp%2Frbal1exitpgms.htm
> for a list of DRDA PRDID's.
