> With 1.6 jvms, doing DriverManager.getConnection() should autoload all drivers in the classpath. If I understand this correctly, it's based on what's in the manifest.mf, so it makes sense that you'd need to have jars, not just classes in the classpath.
> But, with ibm 1.6 jvm, if I have only derbyrun.jar in the classpath, I get the message 'No suitable driver' with both the client, and the embedded driver. 
> However, if I add derby.jar to the classpath, the error goes away for the embedded driver, and if I add derbyclient.jar, it goes away for the client driver.
