True - it is no longer being developed however it's still a useful db. If
you're all hypersonic'd up and just want to get on then try running your
database as a server:
java -cp hsql.jar org.hsql.Server -database c:\path\to\database\name
Don't provide a file suffix. Running as a server gives much better
performance and allows multi user (and pooling) access.
If you're really after a cmd line tool then I can't help you but the
DatabaseManager that comes packaged in hsql.jar is more than adequate for
ad-hoc queries and viewing table structures etc. Launch with:
java -cp hsql.jar org.hsql.util.DatabaseManager
In the connect screen:
Type = HypersonicSQL Server
Url = jdbc:HypersonicSQLhsql://localhost (or wherever)
hope this helps,
Andy
