How can I have my database files in my specific folder and if Derby is only client/server?

I have never used Derby but I've seen that it can be embeded in my java application. If I decide to make my application by derby is there a way to place my database files in my specified application directory so I expect it to be portable and when I copy the database files to another application which can use them they will be copied safely?(I think that it was impossible for mysql thus it has a global configuration)

By the way I'd like to know if Derby has a client/server access system or it can be used like SQLite. My database is so easy and I need no client/server structure. Do client/server structures reduce the performance when they are compared with SQLite structure?

Derby is an open source relational database implemented entirely in Java based on Java, Sql, JDBC standards.

when I copy the database files to another application which can use them they will be copied safely?

Yes it is portable and can be copied safely

I'd like to know if Derby has a client/server access system or it can be used like SQLite

Derby supports the more familiar client/server mode with the Derby Network Client JDBC driver and Derby Network Server. check this link

for a full tutorial on how to use Derby with eclipse I'd suggest you to read this tutorial written by IBM

Good Luck
