it throws SQLException when database has been shutdown successfully

Do I need to shutdown an embedded DerbyDB?<br />
<br />
When I try to shutdown the DB it always throws an exception. Here is what I'm doing:<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Properties props = new Properties();<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; // shut down database<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; props.put(&quot;shutdown&quot;,&quot;true<wbr />&quot;);<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; DriverManager.getConnectio<wbr />n(dbUri,pr<wbr />ops);<br />
<br />
Since it's embedded, the only thing this should do is to close any open files it may have. But, maybe that already happens when I close the connection?

Do I need to shutdown an embedded DerbyDB?

        props.put("shutdown","true");
        DriverManager.getConnection(dbUri,props);

shutting down an embedded Derby DB doesn't work

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
