Connection.setReadOnly is a no-op in Network Server. It works fine in embedded Derby. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DERBY-911 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-911 Project: Derby Type: Bug Components: Network Client Versions: 10.2.0.0 Reporter: Mamta A. Satoor I have a simple test program which calls the Connection.setReadOnly(true) and then checks the readonly mode of that connection. In Network Server, the Connection.isReadOnly returns false even after Connection.setReadOnly(true). Same test program works fine when run in embedded mode, ie Connection.isReadOnly returns true after Connection.setReadOnly(true) is executed. Following is the test code snippet con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:derby://localhost:1527/db7173;create=true", "APP", "APP"); System.out.println("Check default connection.isReadOnly " + con.isReadOnly()); con.setReadOnly(true); System.out.println("After connection.setReadOnly(true), what is isReadOnly " + con.isReadOnly()); The output of this code in Network Server is as follows Check default connection.isReadOnly? false After connection.setReadOnly(true), what is isReadOnly? false I looked at org.apache.derby.client.am.Connection.setReadOnly method and noticed that the method simply doesn't do anything with the supplied value. In addition, it has following comment // This is a hint to the driver only, so this request is silently ignored. // PROTOCOL can only flow a set-read-only before the connection is established. In the same class, isReadOnly always returns false. This explains the current behavior of Network Server. But are we really limited by the DRDA protocol here as the comments in setReadOnly seem to imply? Anyone more familiar with DRDA specification and/or this code in Derby, can they share any information on DRDA spec and Derby behavior in this area? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
