Hello,
I'm trying to develop a local database using derby/JavaDB.
I've created a txt-file where I have the DDL-Statements to create the database and
a txt-file where i initialize the tables with INSERT statements.
I think I've found a solution how to load these txt files from
Java and execute them here on the board.
Execute file
My question is, what ist the best practise on to perform the file only once?
I've seen solutions were this is done in the built.xml but I'don't know exactly how to do it.
My naive solution would be to put a counter in the main method were my application is started and to change the
counter the first time the application is started and the database created.
I would check the counter with a if-clause to ensure the txt-files aren't executed twice.
Any others/betters ideas?
Cheers Walther
