--------------------------------------
Thanks, Kim!
> Developer's Guide recommends use of a deprecated method
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DERBY-7032
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-7032
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Documentation, JDBC
> Affects Versions: 10.15.1.1, 10.16.0.0
> Reporter: Rick Hillegas
> Priority: Major
>
> The "Shutting down the system" topic in the Developer's Guide (and probably
> other places in the user documentation) recommends the following pattern for
> re-loading the engine driver after it was unloaded by a graceful system
> shutdown:
> {noformat}
> Class.forName("org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver").newInstance();
> {noformat}
> However, if you use Java 9 or later to compile an application which follows
> that pattern, then you will get a deprecation warning. That is because Java 9
> deprecated Class.newInstance(). Some future rev of the JDK may remove the
> method altogether.
> This issue was discovered while investigating DERBY-7031.
