I'm bothered about the "fallback" to an inmemory database. I don't think
that makes sense as something to do automatically.
Surely its better for a user to explicitly try to start the JDBCReg and
if that fails catch the exception or null and then create an in-mem Reg?

+1 for 3 alternative constructors. Since the registry is unusable until
init'ed, IMO constructors make more sense.
Thanks,

We want to allow users to configure registry database in different
ways (e.g. using a data source, using a connection URL, specify
whether to start in-memory database if other database is not available).
So we provide few methods in the JDBCRegistry to configure them. We
only want the registry to initialize after those parameters are
configured.
And we don't know whether the user is specifying them or not at the
construction time. Therefore, user has to call init() after
configuring them.
Alternative would be to have 3 constructors.
1) JDBCRegistry() - Use default datasource name if available. If not
available, use in-memory DB
2) JDBCRegistry(String datasourceName, boolean allowInMemoryDB) - Use
given data source. If not available, use in-memory DB depending on the
allowInMemoryDB parameter value
3) JDBCRegistry(String driverClass, String URL, String userName,
String password, boolean allowInMemoryDB) - Use given connection URL
to connect to the DB
Thanks,

Love it! That's what I was looking for.
Last question - why do we need init()?
