Today, Sun announce the release of new J2EE 1.4 SDK which includes App Server Platform Edition 8.2 (SJSAS PE 8.2)
You can download this from http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/download.html.
One the cool highlight of this release is the bundling of Java based, Derby database.
To support the Derby database, two new CLI commands are added and they are:
- start-database
- stop-database
These two commands are executed using the CLI utility "asadmin". This utility is located in the bin directory.
By default the database starts with the following values:
- port = 1527
- host = 0.0.0.0
- derby database system directory = ".", the current project directory
You can alter these values by using the following options in start-database command:
- --dbport
- --dbhost
- --dbhome
