I see an example in the tests (in "encryptionKey_jar.sql") that combines
algorithm and key:
connect
'jdbc:derby:jar:(ina.jar)db1;encryptionAlgorithm=DES/CBC/NoPadding;encryptionKey=6162636465666768'
AS DB1;
I believe encryptionKey can be used instead of bootPassword always.

> Assignee: Kim Haase
> Priority: Minor
>
> The Developer's Guide and Reference Manual information on the bootPassword
> and encryptionKey attributes doesn't state (not prominently, anyway) that
> these properties are mutually exclusive, as Rick Hillegas points out in his
> 6/8/2012 comment on DERBY-5622. This information should be included in the
> documentation for these properties.
