Sorry, silly mental mixup, you don't build jar files from the source tree. But I still think it's odd to have java classes under some other separate tree. But on the other hand it would convey very differently that these classes are "different" and not part of what you would actually want to change when you're fixing bugs/adding features.

If anyone else has thoughts, let me know. I could go either way on this one...

Hm, it seems a little odd to have Java classes somewhere other than under "java". Doesn't it make it significantly harder to build jar files? Can't the 'clobber' task take care of pruning the 'generated' directory?

-------------------------------------

A small refinement:

I'd like to see the generated files go under a subdirectory parallel to classes and java. The generated subtree can be wholesale whacked when you clobber your workspace.

Enable code sharing between Derby client and engine

         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-289
     Project: Derby
        Type: Improvement

  Components: Network Client
    Versions: 10.0.2.1, 10.0.2.0, 10.0.2.2, 10.1.1.0
 Environment: N/A
    Reporter: David Van Couvering

    Priority: Minor
     Fix For: 10.2.0.0
 Attachments: DERBY-289.diff

Right now, there is no way for the Derby network client to share code with the Derby engine. We should have a separate jar file, e.g. derby_common.jar, that contains shared code and is used by both the client and the engine.
