Rick Hillegas commented on DERBY-6645:
--------------------------------------

To answer your question about policy files:

* Template policy files are all generated into the generated source tree 
(specifically into 
trunk/generated/java/org.apache.derby.engine/org/apache/derby/security) 
alongside corresponding webpages for the Derby Security Guide. That directory 
is in the generated source tree for the engine module.
* Production policy files are generated into the classes directory tree for the 
engine module.
* Test policy files are generated into the classes directory tree for the 
testing module.

> For a new user building Derby is very hard. It does not follow established 
> Java project structures and requires a lot of prior knowledge. Also the 
> documentation is rather short. Especially running the tests is non-intuitive 
> at the beginning. Thus, I propose that Derby switches to building using Maven 
> and restructures its components in a cleaner way. Testing should be revised 
> to produce reproducible results. This would make development and testing much 
> easier and more user-friendly.
