Thank you, Dag.

It looks like in order to get this to work, I had to make two calls to
DriverManager.getConnection.
Combining "/shutdown=true;drop=true/" didn't work.
So, is this the correct implementation (if in-line image doesn't work,
please see attachment):

Hello Pavel,

To simply drop an in-memory database, you only need the drop attribute. Shutdown of the specified database happens as part of the drop operation.

It is correct that you need two calls to DriverManager.getConnection if you want to drop a database and additionally shut down the Derby engine. For clarity, note that there is a difference between shutting down a specific database and the Derby engine/system.

Further, shutting down an in-memory database does not drop it, neither does shutting down the Derby engine. I don't know, maybe it would make sense to drop all in-memory databases when the Derby system is shut down - but that's not being done currently.


Hope this helps,

Ah, I misunderstood you Pavel. Have a look here:

http://wiki.apache.org/db-derby/InMemoryBackEndPrimer

As you can see, you need to provide the "drop=true" connection
attribute to wipe the data.

Thanks,
Dag
