vijay commented on SPARK-5481:
------------------------------
JDBC 4 is an API. Drivers implement the API, or parts thereof. You can use
JDBC 3 compliant drivers in Java 6; calls to the JDBC 4 functions against such
drivers cause java.lang.AbstractMethodError exceptions. Spark isn't doing
anything fancy that requires any of the JDBC 4 features; the only function
AFAICT is isClosed(), which as mentioned above is superfluous.
> JdbcRDD requires JDBC 4 APIs, limiting compatible JDBC Drivers

> Key: SPARK-5481
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5481
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 1.2.0
> Reporter: vijay
>
> JdbcRDD makes unnecessary use of JDBC 4 APIs. To maintain broad jdbc driver
> support, Spark should support JDBC 3.
> The issue is calling isClosed() prior to closing JDBC object. isClosed() is
> part of JDBC 4. It is perfectly safe to close something that is already
> closed - this may throw an exception (which is caught) but has no negative
> side affects.
