The ij.dataSource property
specifies the datasource to be used to access the database. When specifying
a datasource, does
not use the DriverManager mechanism to establish connections.
SyntaxTo establish a connection using ij.dataSource,
you need to set the ij.dataSource.databaseName property. If you want to create
the database, specify the ij.dataSource.createDatabase property
as well.
ij.dataSource=dataSourcename
ij.dataSource.databaseName=databasename
[ij.dataSource.createDatabase=create]Example
In the following example, ij connects to a database named
sample using an EmbeddedDataSource. The
sample database is created if it does not already exist.
#
# If your application runs on JDK 1.6 or higher, then you should
# specify the JDBC4 variant of this DataSource:
# org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDataSource40.
#
java -Dij.dataSource=org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDataSource
-Dij.dataSource.databaseName=sample -Dij.dataSource.createDatabase=create
