RE: Question about Embedded Derby

[Ricardo Seromenho]

PerfectReign has posted the message above and I am with the same problem. The question is: What should be the Database URL ? like this: C:\\SOMEWHERE\\ or C\:\\SOMEWHERE\\ or C:/SOMEWHERE/ ? Thanks ---------------- Question about Embedded Derby by PerfectReign Jan 30, 2008; 09:33pm :: Rate this Message: - Use ratings to moderate (?) I have successfully completed the "Building a Java Desktop Datbase Application" tutorial at: http://www.netbeans.org/kb/60/java/gui-db.html Very nice work! I am now trying to do the same thing only using an Embedded Derby database. I am able to create the database (using ij) and then connect to it. However, when I go to run the app, I get an error in my CarsAppView.java file. It is at this line (in grey): entityManager = javax.persistence.Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("jdbc:derby:C:\projects\embeddedCar\CARSDBPU").createEntityManager(); The error message states: "illegal escape character" at each of the three backslashes. Since this is non-editable, what can be done? -- ======================================================== Ricardo José da Silva Seromenho Aluno 23842 Universidade do Algarve, Campus de Gambelas e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] web: http://www.deei.fct.ualg.pt/~a23842/
