I have recently written a small client/server program in java. I have the client connect to the server and send information back and forth. the server is on the same computer as the derby database, and handles all the communication between the java code and the derby database, ie: sql commands. Currently i am starting derby from inside the netbeans ide but would like to be able to have the java code start the database, so that I can just run the jar file w/out having to do things from inside netbeans all of the time. I have looked for a way to start the database from java code but have been unsuccessful in finding it. any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
