Hi people, I have a class which does the usual : i.e.
...
String dbc="org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver";
String url="jdbc:derby:C:\\PersistenceStore;create=true";
...
<<store them into a properties file db_pr >>
...
private Connection openConnection() {
Connection c = null;
try {
Class.forName(db_pr.getProperty("dbc")).newInstance();
c = DriverManager.getConnection(db_pr.getProperty("url"),
db_pr.getProperty("uid"), db_pr.getProperty("pwd"));
} catch (IllegalAccessException iae) {
logException(iae, getClass().getName(), 6000);
} catch (ClassNotFoundException cnfe) {
logException(cnfe, getClass().getName(), 6005);
} catch (InstantiationException ie) {
logException(ie, getClass().getName(), 6010);
} catch (SQLException se) {
while (se != null) {
logException(se, getClass().getName(), 6015);
se = se.getNextException();
}
}
return c;
}
...
I have the derby jar files set in the classpath. This code has always
worked fine from any programs run from the command line but when I
package the code above into a jar file, it can't find the embedded
driver for Derby anymore, although the code works fine with Oracle DB
7.x, Sybase etc. I tried to set the jar files as run-time parameters as :
java -cp .;./derby.jar program.jar or
java -cp %classpath% program.jar
to no avail.
Can anyome tell me what I have to do to get this to work ?
Regards, Dan
