             Summary: Derby does not check invalid configuration option name in derby.properties
                 Key: DERBY-6706
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6706
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 10.10.2.0
         Environment: all
            Reporter: Sai Zhang


Dear Derby Developers,

This is a simple-to-fix but annoying problem in Derby.

Derby simply does not check an invalid configuration option name specified in derby.properties.

For example,

if I want to set:

derby.database.forceDatabaseLock=False

However, I *mis-spell* the configuration name, like:

ddddddddddddderby.database.forceDatabaseLock=False

Seems that derby simply ignores this mis-spelled configuration option rather than issuing a warning to inform me the potential problems in using Derby.  This happens to me a few times, and is *really* annoying.

I would suggest to check the validity of every configuration option name in the configuration file. Please let me know your thoughts.

-Sai
