Bryan Pendleton updated DERBY-668:
----------------------------------

    Attachment: with_andrews_feedback.diff

Patch "with_andrews_feedback.diff" incorporates the suggestions from Andrew's review of March 8 (thanks Andrew):

- The message when java.class.path cannot be read is fetched from a translatable property
- The code now catches the security exception when getProtectionDomain is disallowed and displays a friendly message fetched from a translatable property.

> There is a section in the SysInfo tool's output titled "Derby Information", which prints location and version information for the major Derby jars. Here is an example of that output:
> --------- Derby Information --------
> JRE - JDBC: J2SE 1.4.2 - JDBC 3.0
> [/home/bpendleton/src/derby-subversion/trunk/jars/insane/derby.jar] 10.2.0.0 alpha - (315052M)
> [/home/bpendleton/src/derby-subversion/trunk/jars/insane/derbytools.jar] 10.2.0.0 alpha - (315052M)
> [/home/bpendleton/src/derby-subversion/trunk/jars/insane/derbynet.jar] 10.2.0.0 alpha - (315052M)
> [/home/bpendleton/src/derby-subversion/trunk/jars/insane/derbyclient.jar] 10.2.0.0 alpha - (315052M)
> [/home/bpendleton/downloads/derby/db2jcc/lib/db2jcc.jar] 2.4 - (17)
> [/home/bpendleton/downloads/derby/db2jcc/lib/db2jcc_license_c.jar] 2.4 - (17)
> Unfortunately, this tool can be fooled if you arrange for one of these jar files to be loaded from a magic location like $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext.
> For example, I had (accidentally) placed an old version of db2jcc.jar into $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext. When I ran SysInfo, it printed out: 
> --------- Derby Information --------
> JRE - JDBC: J2SE 1.4.2 - JDBC 3.0
> [/home/bpendleton/src/derby-subversion/trunk/jars/insane/derby.jar] 10.2.0.0 alpha - (315052M)
> [/home/bpendleton/src/derby-subversion/trunk/jars/insane/derbytools.jar] 10.2.0.0 alpha - (315052M)
> [/home/bpendleton/src/derby-subversion/trunk/jars/insane/derbynet.jar] 10.2.0.0 alpha - (315052M)
> [/home/bpendleton/src/derby-subversion/trunk/jars/insane/derbyclient.jar] 10.2.0.0 alpha - (315052M)
> [/home/bpendleton/downloads/derby/db2jcc/lib/db2jcc.jar] 1.0 - (581)
> [/home/bpendleton/downloads/derby/db2jcc/lib/db2jcc_license_c.jar] 1.0 - (581)
> However, the "1.0 (581)" information actually came from $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext/db2jcc.jar, NOT from
> /home/bpendleton/downloads/derby/db2jcc/lib/db2jcc.jar.
> It would be nice if SysInfo could detect the difference between a jar file being loaded via the application class loader using $CLASSPATH, and a jar file being loaded via the system class loader using JDK library extensions.
> To reproduce the problem, simply:
> 1) Place an older version of db2jcc.jar into $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext
> 2) Place a newer version of db2jcc.jar into your $CLASSPATH
> 3) Run SysInfo. You will see that it prints the name of the jarfile from $CLASSPATH, but the version info from the JDK copy.
