Bug #: 51338
Summary: : Make Base the front end for HSQLDB
Classification: Unclassified
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 3.5.4 release
Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Status Whiteboard: BSA
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Database
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Enhancement request
Urgency:
This is a problem that has existed since HSQLDB v. 1.8 was no longer the latest
stable version.
Problem description:
Base has not updated the HSQLDB database engine because the .odb file contains
an embedded database. Remove the embedded database files placing them in their
separate folder, and Base can connect to them using the latest version of
HSQLDB.
Steps to reproduce:
1. ....
2. ....
3. ....
Current behavior:
An .odb file contains files in the database folder for embedded databases. It
does not contain this folder when it is used to connect to an external
database.
Expected behavior:
When Base creates a new database, a folder should be selected in which to
place the database files and the files should be created in this folder. Create
the .odb file as you would when connecting to an external database. So, the
only new required is selecting a folder for the files and writing them to it.
When I use Tools > Options > Libreoffice > Java > Class Path to at HSQLDB
2.x, I can connect to a folder containing the database files. So, this can be
done with HSQLDB as well.
The Database Wizard would need to be modified to do two things: select a
folder in which to place the database files creating the folder if necessary,
write the necessary files in this folder.
