Rod,
Hypersonic is no longer in development - the source lives on though in
the HSQL Database Engine (HSQLDB) Project.
This is from their web site
*----------------------------------------------------------------
What is HSQLDB?
* It is an Open Source Java Database
* It has standard SQL syntax and a JDBC interface
* HSQLDB is FREE to use and re-distribute
* It is compact
* It is very fast
* In-Memory, Standalone and Client/Server modes
* It can be used also in Applets
More Features:
* Indexes can be built and are used automatically
* Transactions are supported
* Joins between tables are possible
* Referential Integrity
* Java Stored Procedures and Functions are supported
* Database can create SQL scripts
* Security mechanism using users, passwords, access rights
* Can be compiled for Java 1.1 and Java 2
HSQLDB, based on HypersonicSQL, is a general purpose database. It is
very small and easy to install and use. It can be used in applets, for
testing, as a distributed application, and for production purposes.
*----------------------------------------------------------------
I have used it a little bit, and I think it has most of the features
that we would require. I think JBoss is still including some older
version of HSQLDB it in their install.
The more I think about it, I think that this should be the default
target db. Hopefully we can provide sample code for MySQL, Postgres and
Oracle as well.
