| <h2>Adding the Derby nature to a Java project</h2> |
| <p> |
| Once a Java project is created the Derby nature can be added from within |
| the Java perspective. To add the Derby nature to your project: |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| From the <b>Java</b> perspective, select the project in the <b>Package Explorer</b> view. Right-click the project to bring up the context menu and select |
| the menu item, <b>Apache Derby, Add Apache Derby nature</b>. |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |

| </blockquote> |
| <p> |
| Adding the Derby nature to your Java project does the following: |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| Adds the <b>derby.jar, derbynet.jar, derbytools.jar, derbyclient.jar</b> jar files to the Java Build Path of the project.<br/><br/> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Enables the Derby features for the project. The <b>ij</b> and <b>sysinfo</b> |
| tools are now accessible from the Eclipse menu, and the Apache Derby Network Server can now be started and stopped from within Eclipse. <br/><br/> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| Allows Apache Derby properties to be set for the project. |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
