How to connect to a password-protected ACCDB file using UcanAccess 5.1.2

[Takumi-Inoue-hulft]

I was connecting to a password-protected ACCDB file using UcanAccess 5.0.1 by implementing the JackcessOpenerInterface as follows:

import io.github.spannm.jackcess.CryptCodecProvider;
import io.github.spannm.jackcess.Database;
import io.github.spannm.jackcess.DatabaseBuilder;
import net.ucanaccess.jdbc.JackcessOpenerInterface;

import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;

public class CryptCodecOpener implements JackcessOpenerInterface {

    public Database open(File fl, String pwd) throws IOException {
        DatabaseBuilder dbd = new DatabaseBuilder(fl);
        dbd.setAutoSync(false);
        dbd.setCodecProvider(new CryptCodecProvider(pwd));
        dbd.setReadOnly(false);
        return dbd.open();
    }
}

I am attempting to upgrade to UcanAccess 5.1.2. However, since Jackcess has been forked and the package has moved from com.healthmarketscience.jackcess to io.github.spannm.jackcess, the argument expected by io.github.spannm.jackcess.DatabaseBuilder#withCodecProviderhas also changed to io.github.spannm.jackcess.impl.CodecProvider.

The interface for CryptCodecProvider in jackcess-encrypt 4.0.2 (the latest version as of now) is from com.healthmarketscience.jackcess.impl, so it cannot be set with withCodecProvider.

• Is there a way to connect to a password-protected ACCDB file using UcanAccess 5.1.2?
• Alternatively, do you plan to fork jackcess-encrypt in the same manner as Jackcess?

Hi Takumi,

I was wondering whether someone would ask that question :)
So here we are.
I am sure we can do something about that, ideally without forking jackcess-encrypt.
Let me think about it and get back here soon.

Update: I am working on a compatible version of jackcess-encrypt. The artifact has now been released and is available for usage.

Thank you for dealing with this matter.
