So maybe we should recommend it then? > one library from that package that seems to be required is libdbahsqllo.so. Hmm, that sounds like a bug anyways... >From my memory and from git log this is I think that file is the hsqldb binary >importer? [...] commit 60ac7418747530a006894a7941c67c5006d6158c Author: Tamas Bunth <tamas.bu...@collabora.co.uk> Date: Wed Feb 28 21:40:06 2018 +0100 HSQLDB Binary import C++ implementation of reading HSQL's binary file format. This file contains the actual rows for the tables, represented in an AVL tree. Import starts from HsqlImporter, which calls to SchemaParser for some metadata (the positions of the trees in "data" file). After that it goes through the tree and read up the rows using HsqlRowInputStream. Finally, it uses sdbc's XPreparedStatement to insert the rows to the actual database.

Create new library "dbahsql" which is responsible for migrating the embedded hsql database to any database covered by sdbc. The hsqldb schema is stored in a file named "script" in form of SQL statements. The SQL statements used by DBMS's differ mostly by the defined types. Because of that, only the create statements need to be parsed, alter statements will work (with a little luck) without actually modifying it. User / security settings which can occur in the script file (e.g. GRANT statements) are dropped. Statements starting with SET are also dropped (they are hsql specific stuff) Change-Id: I6a22942e8a9a76765f80e50f0ad68f4d72e1ff9d Reviewed-on: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/48260 Tested-by: Jenkins <c...@libreoffice.org> Reviewed-by: Tamás Bunth <btom...@gmail.com> Yup. >From the name I'd put it into -sdbc-hsqldb but that is too opaque and more hidden and subject to go away anyway when hsqldb finally was removed, which I can't wait for :)) We already put libdbalo.so into a -base-core.
