John H. Embretsen commented on DERBY-3187:
------------------------------------------
I'm wondering how the DERBY-2216 J2ME change was tested in a J2ME environment
in the first place. Wouldn't the statement "import java.sql.DriverManager"
cause an error in a CDC environment? At least it fails (with
NoClassDefFoundError: java.sql.DriverManager) with the phoneME cvm (CDC/FP),
even if I make sure the check for J2ME (which in its current state is
inadequate) is true.
Anyway, I am planning to fix this for 10.3.2 as part of a major overhaul of the
simple demo (DERBY-3118). I'm currently considering two options:
1) Revert the J2ME changes introduced in DERBY-2216. Instead, we may create a
separate simple demo for the mobile platform.
2) Always keep the datasource's static type as javax.sql.DataSource, which is
available in all environments. When access to methods in
EmbeddedSimpleDataSource is required (only in Java ME environments), do a cast
from DataSource to EmbeddedSimpleDataSource, e.g. like this:
((org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedSimpleDataSource)ds).setCreateDatabase("create");
instead of this:
ds.setCreateDatabase("create");
Option 2 works (runtime errors in non-mobile environments are avoided), at
least in the JVM's I've tried so far, but:
a) I'm not sure it will work in all "supported" JVMs (need to refresh and
extend my Java spec knowledge a bit I guess).
b) The code looks less elegant, which partly defeats the purpose of a
*simple* demo.
So I'm inclined to go for option 1.
Any opinions? Or does anyone have any other options we could use to solve this?

> Since J2ME support was added to the simple demo (bin-releases:
> demo/programs/simple/SimpleApp.java) in DERBY-2216 (first available in
> 10.3.1.4), the demo has not worked in a pure client setting as described in
> the documentation (bin-releases: demo/programs/simple/example.html). This is
> a regression from 10.2.2.0.
> $ export CLASSPATH=.:$DERBY_INSTALL/lib/derbyclient.jar

> 10.2.2.0:
> $ java SimpleApp derbyclient
> SimpleApp starting in derbyclient mode.
> Loaded the appropriate driver.
> Connected to and created database derbyDB
> Created table derbyDB
> Inserted 1956 Webster
