Escaping reserved characters in database URL

[Silvio]

I am running into issues with database files that are created with file paths based on user input. One example has a path with a directory in it that has a ; in it's name. Connecting to the database fails for obvious reasons. Is there a way to encode such paths to prevent issues like this?

No, we have no encoding for stuff inside a "jdbc:h2:" URL. If you really really need this, you could create a custom filesystem extension using org.h2.store.fs.FilePath and then invent your own encoding.
