>             Project: Derby
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: JDBC
>    Affects Versions: 10.6.0.0
>            Reporter: Rick Hillegas

> The original connection, using the classpath subprotocol, was supposed to open the DATABASE (not the connection) as read-only, according to the Developer's Guide section titled "Database connection examples". However, I am able to write to this database in another connection which opens the database using the default, file-based protocol.
> At a minimum, the documentation is wrong. But the documentation may be trying to impose a consistent, easily described model on the behavior of our subprotocols. It may be that the behavior of our subprotocols cannot be described by a simple set of rules that users can grasp easily.
> To show this problem, I created a database and then moved it into a directory on my classpath (in this case, trunk/classes). Here is a script which shows this behavior:
> connect 'jdbc:derby:classpath:derby10.6' as conn1;
> -- fails because a database which is opened on the classpath is supposed to be marked as read-only
> insert into t( a ) values 1;
> connect 'jdbc:derby:trunk/classes/derby10.6' as conn2;
> -- this succeeds even though the database is supposed to be read-only
> -- according to the Developer's Guide section "Database connection examples"
> insert into t( a ) values 2;
> select * from t;
> delete from t;
