The following program, AuthExampleEmbedded.java, shows how to turn on, use, and turn off user authentication using Derby's built-in user authentication and user authorization.
See User authorizations for information on using SQL authorization, which allows you to use ANSI SQL Standard GRANT and REVOKE statements.
The program does the following:
Make sure that the javac command is in your path, then compile the program as follows:
javac AuthExampleEmbedded.java
Before you run AuthExampleEmbedded, make sure that %DERBY_HOME%\lib\derby.jar (or $DERBY_HOME/lib/derby.jar) is in your classpath. Then use the following command:
java AuthExampleEmbedded
