[jira] Commented: (DERBY-4381) Connection to Derby doesn't work if the path has round braket in it

["Stan Bradbury (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4381?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12765741#action_12765741 ] 

Stan Bradbury commented on DERBY-4381:
--------------------------------------

Is it standard to escape special characters?  Perhaps this should be changed to a documentation issue?  

Since this involves a Windows standard folder I will add a TIP to the WIKI so the information is searchable.

> In 64 bit windows vista OS, if an executable is 32 bit than it is generally installed under 
> "C:\Program Files (x86)" folder. The brackets in the path cause problems while connecting
> to any database stored in that folder(in jar format) through derby JDBC.
> The effective connection string is :
> jdbc:derby:jar:(C:/Program Files(86)/ClassicModels.jar)ClassicModels 
> This fails because the closing brackets is not escaped. 
> I looked into the documentation and didn't find references to escaping the brackets in the path. 
> I think this problem should be reproducible on all platforms.
> you cannot connect to it,
