Re: Choosing Database Location Programatically with Embedded Driver

#1 07-22-2008, 09:23 AM

Hi Pierre,

The location of database files is determined by two variables: 1) the
database location in your connection URL and 2) the location of the
Derby system directory indicated by the "derby.system.home" system
property. For more detail, please see the section titled "Connecting to
databases" in the Derby Developer's Guide:
http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.4/devguide/ In particular, please
take a look at the subsection titled "Database connection examples".

Hope this helps,
-Rick
