[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-528?page=comments#action_12422814 ] Kathey Marsden commented on DERBY-528: --------------------------------------
Running the testSecMec test I am getting symptoms that look like DERBY-1114 on all JVM's I have tried, where the test exits in the middle I think this is specific to my environment and have seen it in the past without the patch,.This will make me finally update my jdk and get it resolved. If you get Sunitha's review before you get the JCC masters from me, don't wait for the JCC masters I will update after. One other note. It might be good to open another Jira Issue to document this change.
