Hi All,

In order to run the tests I've created in XplainStatisticsTest.java class, I need read and write permissions to user's testing directory's extinout folder.

Currently in derby_tests.policy file, it doesn't provide IO permissions to extinout folder under user's testing directory.

So I like to request from the community to approve the above mentioned permission grant.

After adding that permission derby_tests.policy file's relevant portion looks like following:

// JUnit jar file tries to read junit.properties in the user's // home directory and seems to require permission to read the // property user.home as well. // junit.swingui.TestRunner writes to .junitsession on exit. grant codeBase "${derbyTesting.junit}" { permission java.util.PropertyPermission "user.home", "read"; permission java.io.FilePermission "${user.home}${/}junit.properties", "read"; permission java.io.FilePermission "${user.home}${/}.junitsession", "write";

// This permission is needed when running the tests using ant 1.7 permission java.io.FilePermission "${user.dir}${/}*", "write"; //DERBY-4587 PlanExporter tool needs this permission in order to run its tests permission java.io.FilePermission "${user.dir}${/}extinout${/}-", "read, write";

// These permissions are needed when testing code instrumented with EMMA. permission java.util.PropertyPermission "${emma.active}user.dir", "read"; permission java.io.FilePermission "${emma.active}${user.dir}${/}coverage.ec", "read, write"; permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "${emma.active}writeFileDescriptor"; };

Thanks.
