How to start the Glasfish Java DB together with Glassfish in Eclipse IDE ?
Hi,
With the previous versions of the eclipse glassfish plugin (Glassfish Tools) there was an option (Preferences / GlassFish Preferences ) in order to start the Java DB Server together with Glassfish inside Eclipse IDE.
There was also a datasource configured which allowed user to easily access to the default database inside Eclipse IDE.
These two features have disappeared in latest versions of the Glassfish Tools (GlassFish Tools 9.1.0.201606021811).
Have the options moved somewhere else, or is there an other way to start the Java DB inside eclipse ?
Regards
PS : yes I know I can start the database using the asadmin start-database command in a shell terminal.

You can connect to a Derby instance in the Data Source Explorer view, but a facility to start/stop database servers is not available from within Eclipse.
-
It was possible with GlassFish Tools 8.4.0 (OEPE 12.2.1 in October 2015) but the facility has been removed in GlassFish Tools 8.5.0 (OEPE 12.2.1.1 in December).
Is there any explication why ?
-
Integration of Derby start/stop with GF start/stop was removed as part of a broader cleanup of GF Tools. We would be open to reconsidering that decision if there is sufficient user demand for it.
-
When you begin and learn JEE with eclipse and GlassFish, the Derby integration is a nice feature:
You can start and stop everything inside eclipse and, since the derby database is the default database provided by GlassFish, you can start developing toy apps and verify the database inside eclipse, without having to configure any jpa datasource.
Is there a bugtracker somewhere where we could ask for the return of this feature and vote for it ?
-
A plugin for Java DB should be available in the plugin repository.
-
There is no public bug tracker. Voting for the return of this feature can happen on this thread.

This answer is incorrect.
