Grails, an In-Memory HSQL Database and Squirrel

Starting the HQSL Database

java -cp c:grails-1.2.0libhsqldb-1.8.0.10.jar org.hsqldb.Server -database.0 mem:devDB -dbname.0 devDB

Accessing the DB

java -cp c:grails-1.2.0libhsqldb-1.8.0.10.jar org.hsqldb.util.DatabaseManager

Grails database connection information, in DataSource.groovy

dbCreate = "create-drop"
url = "jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://localhost:9001/devDB"
username = "sa"
password = ""

Squirrel wouldn’t start until I correctly quote the CLASSPATH environment variable.
