-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
MySQL Connector/J 3.0.17, a new version of the Type-IV all-Java JDBC driver for MySQL has been released. Version 3.0.17is a bugfix release for the stable tree that is suitable for use with any MySQL version including MySQL-4.1 or MySQL-5.0 (although it provides minimal 'new' functionality with MySQL-4.1 or MySQL-5.0, users connecting to MySQL-4.1 or 5.0 should be using Connector/J 3.1.x). It is now available in source and binary form from the Connector/J download pages at http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/3.0.html and mirror sites (note that not all mirror sites may be up to date at this point of time - if you can't find this version on some mirror, please try again later or choose another download site.) -Mark - From the changelog: 06-22-05 - Version 3.0.17-ga - Fixed BUG#5874, Timestamp/Time conversion goes in the wrong 'direction' when useTimeZone='true' and server timezone differs from client timezone. - Fixed BUG#7081, DatabaseMetaData.getIndexInfo() ignoring 'unique' parameter. - Support new protocol type 'MYSQL_TYPE_VARCHAR'. - Added 'useOldUTF8Behavoior' configuration property, which causes JDBC driver to act like it did with MySQL-4.0.x and earlier when the character encoding is 'utf-8' when connected to MySQL-4.1 or newer. - Fixed BUG#7316 - Statements created from a pooled connection were returning physical connection instead of logical connection when getConnection() was called. - Fixed BUG#7033 - PreparedStatements don't encode Big5 (and other multibyte) character sets correctly in static SQL strings. - Fixed BUG#6966, connections starting up failed-over (due to down master) never retry master. - Fixed BUG#7061, PreparedStatement.fixDecimalExponent() adding extra '+', making number unparseable by MySQL server. - Fixed BUG#7686, Timestamp key column data needed "_binary'" stripped for UpdatableResultSet.refreshRow(). - Backported SQLState codes mapping from Connector/J 3.1, enable with 'useSqlStateCodes=true' as a connection property, it defaults to 'false' in this release, so that we don't break legacy applications (it defaults to 'true' starting with Connector/J 3.1). - Fixed BUG#7601, PreparedStatement.fixDecimalExponent() adding extra '+', making number unparseable by MySQL server. - Escape sequence {fn convert(..., type)} now supports ODBC-style types that are prepended by 'SQL_'. - Fixed duplicated code in configureClientCharset() that prevented useOldUTF8Behavior=true from working properly. - Handle streaming result sets with > 2 billion rows properly by fixing wraparound of row number counter. - Fixed BUG#7607 - MS932, SHIFT_JIS and Windows_31J not recog. as aliases for sjis. - Fixed BUG#6549 (while fixing #7607), adding 'CP943' to aliases for sjis. - Fixed BUG#8064, which requires hex escaping of binary data when using multibyte charsets with prepared statements. - Fixed BUG#8812, NON_UNIQUE column from DBMD.getIndexInfo() returned inverted value. - Workaround for server BUG#9098 - default values of CURRENT_* for DATE/TIME/TIMESTAMP/TIMESTAMP columns can't be distinguished from 'string' values, so UpdatableResultSet.moveToInsertRow() generates bad SQL for inserting default values. - Fixed BUG#8629 - 'EUCKR' charset is sent as 'SET NAMES euc_kr' which MySQL-4.1 and newer doesn't understand. - DatabaseMetaData.supportsSelectForUpdate() returns correct value based on server version. - Use hex escapes for PreparedStatement.setBytes() for double-byte charsets including 'aliases' Windows-31J, CP934, MS932. - Added support for the "EUC_JP_Solaris" character encoding, which maps to a MySQL encoding of "eucjpms" (backported from 3.1 branch). This only works on servers that support eucjpms, namely 5.0.3 or later. - -- Mark Matthews MySQL AB, Software Development Manager - Client Connectivity www.mysql.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFCuZe7tvXNTca6JD8RAjFpAJsE551UG0OGNftW78r0JZiPaIIQhwCeM4rA xEl/cfq+xSkgmKugLlthaG0= =L+Wi -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
