Once I've created a schema, how do I specify it for the connect ...;create=true command, or how do I set it for subsequent commands while using ij?

There is a SET SCHEMA statement you can use:
http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.2/ref/rrefsqlj32268.html

Also, be aware of default schemas and implicit schema creation, a common source of confusion. From FAQ 5.3 [1]:

"The current schema for any connection defaults to a schema corresponding to the user name. If no user name is supplied then the user name (and hence current schema) defaults to APP.

However even though the current schema is set to the user name, that schema may not exist. A schema is only created by CREATE SCHEMA or creating an object (table etc.) in that schema (this is implicit schema creation)."


This point is key as I know until i did a deep dive based on what i saw with the Netbeans explorer, i did not really think about the schema getting created until the object for that user name (when create schema was not used) occurs.

We should probably open a JIRA to clarify when the schema is created in more explict detail
