Hi,
I was poking at the manual and I noticed that in the following:
http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.1/tools/ttoolsij30600.html
it is described that you can overwrite ij properties specified with
the -p <propertyfile> by using -Dij.<property>.
However, when I tried it, it looks as you need to specify
-D<property>, if you use the -Dij.<property> nothing happens.

I assume this is intended behavior, and a doc bug...
Can anyone confirm whether or not this is true for all ij properties
by looking at the code?
This sounds like a code bug, not a doc bug. I think that ij's
properties should all be prefixed with 'ij.' as described in the doc.
And the fact that a property with a different name, not prefixed with
'ij.', can override the behavior of the properly named property seems
really wrong to me.
Could you please file a code bug for this? I'll take a look at it shorty.
