error? DatabaseMetaDataQuery on read-only database gives error

["Dag H. Wanvik" <Da...@Sun.COM>]

With released 10.3.1.4, I tried to connect to toursdb, which was
protected, so I had read-only access to it. Connecting with ij, a "show
tables" gave error:

> ERROR 40XD1: Container was opened in read-only mode.

Apparently because Derby attempt to store a SPS for the query.. Is to
be expected or is it an error? I thought Derby should handle this
by not storing any SPSes..

Using 10.3 trunk to access the same database, I even got an empty
pointer, see enclosed stack trace. This is surely a bug, When I made
the trunk version of toursdb read-only, I was back to 40XD1,
though. The latter may possibly be related to DERBY-1107?
