Bryan Pendleton updated DERBY-668:
----------------------------------
Attachment: derby-668-2.diff
Hi Kathey,
I re-worked my patch based on your comments, and I think it is more useful now.
I abstracted the code out into a subroutine so that it could be shared, added
some comments, and, most importantly, used the code in the "sysinfo -cp" code
path, where it actually makes a lot more sense and is more useful.
The net effect of this patch is:
1) If you run "sysinfo -cp" (and any of its variants), sysinfo now reports the
actual location where the class was loaded from, in addition to telling you
whether or not it loaded the class successfully.
2) If you run just "sysinfo", when it is processing the db2jcc.jar file in your
classpath, it now reports the actual location where the DB2Driver class was
loaded from, which may not be the db2jcc.jar file in your classpath (if you've
placed db2jcc.jar somewhere else).
Please have a look at this new patch when you get a chance and tell me what you
think.

> There is a section in the SysInfo tool's output titled "Derby Information",
> which prints location and version information for the major Derby jars. Here
> is an example of that output:
> --------- Derby Information --------
> JRE - JDBC: J2SE 1.4.2 - JDBC 3.0
> [/home/bpendleton/src/derby-subversion/trunk/jars/insane/derby.jar] 10.2.0.0
> alpha - (315052M)
> [/home/bpendleton/src/derby-subversion/trunk/jars/insane/derbytools.jar]
> 10.2.0.0 alpha - (315052M)
> [/home/bpendleton/src/derby-subversion/trunk/jars/insane/derbynet.jar]
> 10.2.0.0 alpha - (315052M)
> [/home/bpendleton/src/derby-subversion/trunk/jars/insane/derbyclient.jar]
> 10.2.0.0 alpha - (315052M)
> [/home/bpendleton/downloads/derby/db2jcc/lib/db2jcc.jar] 2.4 - (17)
> [/home/bpendleton/downloads/derby/db2jcc/lib/db2jcc_license_c.jar] 2.4 - (17)
> Unfortunately, this tool can be fooled if you arrange for one of these jar
> files to be loaded from a magic location like $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext.
> For example, I had (accidentally) placed an old version of db2jcc.jar into
> $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext. When I ran SysInfo, it printed out:
> --------- Derby Information --------
> JRE - JDBC: J2SE 1.4.2 - JDBC 3.0
> [/home/bpendleton/src/derby-subversion/trunk/jars/insane/derby.jar] 10.2.0.0
> alpha - (315052M)
> [/home/bpendleton/src/derby-subversion/trunk/jars/insane/derbytools.jar]
> 10.2.0.0 alpha - (315052M)
> [/home/bpendleton/src/derby-subversion/trunk/jars/insane/derbynet.jar]
> 10.2.0.0 alpha - (315052M)
> [/home/bpendleton/src/derby-subversion/trunk/jars/insane/derbyclient.jar]
> 10.2.0.0 alpha - (315052M)
> [/home/bpendleton/downloads/derby/db2jcc/lib/db2jcc.jar] 1.0 - (581)
> [/home/bpendleton/downloads/derby/db2jcc/lib/db2jcc_license_c.jar] 1.0 - (581)
> However, the "1.0 (581)" information actually came from
> $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext/db2jcc.jar, NOT from
> /home/bpendleton/downloads/derby/db2jcc/lib/db2jcc.jar.
> It would be nice if SysInfo could detect the difference between a jar file
> being loaded via the application class loader using $CLASSPATH, and a jar
> file being loaded via the system class loader using JDK library extensions.
> To reproduce the problem, simply:
> 1) Place an older version of db2jcc.jar into $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext
> 2) Place a newer version of db2jcc.jar into your $CLASSPATH
> 3) Run SysInfo. You will see that it prints the name of the jarfile from
> $CLASSPATH, but the version info from the JDK copy.
