Rick Hillegas updated DERBY-866:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: derby-866-14-ac-badNativeSpec.diff

Attaching derby-866-14-ad-badNativeSpec.diff. This patch adds some logic to 
prevent the authentication service from booting if the user specifies NATIVE + 
LOCAL authentication at the system level. The patch also adds more tests for 
setting and changing the value of the authentication provider property. The 
patch also re-enables this test for all platforms except Windows (see the 
discussion on DERBY-5601).

The functional spec says that derby.authentication.provider=NATIVE::LOCAL is 
illegal if specified at the system level. That is because this setting does not 
identify a credentials DB for system-wide operations. This patch enforces that 
rule. If you attempt this setting at the system level, Derby will refuse to 
boot.


Touches the following files:

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

M       
java/engine/org/apache/derby/impl/jdbc/authentication/NativeAuthenticationServiceImpl.java

Check for illegal system-wide setting of 
derby.authentication.provider=NATIVE::LOCAL.

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

M       
java/testing/org/apache/derbyTesting/functionTests/tests/lang/NativeAuthenticationServiceTest.java

New tests for settings of derby.authentication.provider.

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

M       
java/testing/org/apache/derbyTesting/functionTests/tests/lang/_Suite.java

Re-enable NativeAuthenticationServiceTest on non-windows platforms.

> Proposal to enhance Derby's Built-In DDL User Management. (See proposal spec 
> attached to the JIRA).
> Abstract:
> This feature aims at improving the way BUILT-IN users are managed in Derby by 
> providing a more intuitive and familiar DDL interface. Currently (in 
> 10.1.2.1), Built-In users can be defined at the system and/or database level. 
> Users created at the system level can be defined via JVM or/and Derby system 
> properties in the derby.properties file. Built-in users created at the 
> database level are defined via a call to a Derby system procedure 
> (SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_SET_DATABASE_PROPERTY) which sets a database property.
> Defining a user at the system level is very convenient and practical during 
> the development phase (EOD) of an application - However, the user's password 
> is not encrypted and consequently appears in clear in the derby.properties 
> file. Hence, for an application going into production, whether it is embedded 
> or not, it is preferable to create users at the database level where the 
> password is encrypted.
> There is no real ANSI SQL standard for managing users in SQL but by providing 
> a more intuitive and known interface, it will ease Built-In User management 
> at the database level as well as Derby's adoption.
