--- Comment #29 from Julien Nabet <serval2...@yahoo.fr> ---
https://www.razorsql.com/articles/mysql_jdbc_connect.html summarizes well the
situation about JDBC with MariaDB/Mysql.
We got:
com.mysql.jdbc.Driver: the legacy class used for Mysql
com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver: for recent Mysql
org.mariadb.jdbc.Driver: for MariaDB
Only first one is used in LO:
https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/search?project=core&full=%22com.mysql.jdbc.Driver%22&defs=&refs=&path=&hist=&type=&xrd=&si=full&si=full
So :
1) We got "mysql_jdbc" and "jdbc" drivers (see
https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/connectivity/source/drivers/), why
not just keeping jdbc and dump mysql_jdbc to simplify?
Idem for ODBC part.
Selecting Mysql (or MariaDB if 1) is done), should just bring direct connection
If disagree, why don't we do the same for Postgresql for example?
(When a bug talks about Mysql with JDBC, how to know if Mysql_jdbc has been
used or just JDBC?)
2) We use Mariadb package 2.0.0 (see
https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/download.lst?r=d400009e), what about
renaming Mysql to MariaDB to prepare the
fact the 2 DBs will have more and more difference with the time?
Of course, we may also propose both.
