-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
MySQL Connector/J 5.0.4 a new version of the Type-IV all-Java JDBC driver for MySQL has been released. This is a bugfix release for the current production branch of Connector/J. Version 5.0.4 is suitable for use with any MySQL version including MySQL-4.1, MySQL-5.0 or MySQL-5.1 beta. It is now available in source and binary form from the Connector/J download pages at http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/5.0.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.) As always, we recommend that you check the change log (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/cj-news.html) and "Upgrading" sections (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/cj-upgrading.html) in the manual before upgrading to be aware of changes in behavior that might affect your application. -Mark - From the change log (notice that this release includes changes and fixes from versions 3.1.14 and the yet-to-be-released 3.1.15 versions): 10-20-06 - Version 5.0.4 - Fixed BUG#21379 - column names don't match metadata in cases where server doesn't return original column names (column functions) thus reaking compatibility with applications that expect 1-1 mappings between findColumn() and rsmd.getColumnName(), usually manifests itself as "Can't find column ('')" exceptions. - Fixed BUG#21544 - When using information_schema for metadata, COLUMN_SIZE for getColumns() is not clamped to range of java.lang.Integer as is the case when not using information_schema, thus leading to a truncation exception that isn't present when not using information_schema. - Fixed configuration property "jdbcCompliantTruncation" was not being used for reads of result set values. - Fixed BUG#22024 - Newlines causing whitespace to span confuse procedure parser when getting parameter metadata for stored procedures. - Driver now supports {call sp} (without "()" if procedure has no arguments). - Fixed BUG#22359 - Driver was using milliseconds for Statement.setQueryTimeout() when specification says argument is to be in seconds. - Workaround for server crash when calling stored procedures via a server-side prepared statement (driver now detects prepare(stored procedure) and substitutes client-side prepared statement), addresses BUG#22297. - Added new _ci collations to CharsetMapping, fixing Bug#22456 - utf8_unicode_ci not working. - Fixed BUG#22290 - Driver issues truncation on write exception when it shouldn't (due to sending big decimal incorrectly to server with server-side prepared statement). - Fixed BUG#22613 - DBMD.getColumns() does not return expected COLUMN_SIZE for the SET type, now returns length of largest possible set disregarding whitespace or the "," delimitters to be consistent with the ODBC driver. - Driver now sends numeric 1 or 0 for client-prepared statement setBoolean() calls instead of '1' or '0'. - DatabaseMetaData correctly reports true for supportsCatalog*() methods. nn-nn-06 - Version 3.1.15 - Fixed BUG#23281 - Downed slave caused round-robin load balance to not cycle back to first host in list. 10-19-06 - Version 3.1.14 - Fixed BUG#20479 - Updatable result set throws ClassCastException when there is row data and moveToInsertRow() is called. - Fixed BUG#20485 - Updatable result set that contains a BIT column fails when server-side prepared statements are used. - Fixed BUG#16987 - Memory leak with profileSQL=true. - Fixed BUG#19726 - Connection fails to localhost when using timeout and IPv6 is configured. - Fixed BUG#16791 - NullPointerException in MysqlDataSourceFactory due to Reference containing RefAddrs with null content. - Fixed BUG#20306 - ResultSet.getShort() for UNSIGNED TINYINT returns incorrect values when using server-side prepared statements. - Fixed BUG#20687 - Can't pool server-side prepared statements, exception raised when re-using them. - Fixed BUG#21062 - ResultSet.getSomeInteger() doesn't work for BIT(>1). - Fixed BUG#18880 - ResultSet.getFloatFromString() can't retrieve values near Float.MIN/MAX_VALUE. - Fixed BUG#20888 - escape of quotes in client-side prepared statements parsing not respected. Patch covers more than bug report, including NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES being set, and stacked quote characters forms of escaping (i.e. '' or ""). - Fixed BUG#19993 - ReplicationDriver does not always round-robin load balance depending on URL used for slaves list. - Fixed calling toString() on ResultSetMetaData for driver-generated (i.e. from DatabaseMetaData method calls, or from getGeneratedKeys()) result sets would raise a NullPointerException. - Fixed Bug#21207 - Driver throws NPE when tracing prepared satements that have been closed (in asSQL()). - Removed logger autodectection altogether, must now specify logger explicitly if you want to use a logger other than one that logs to STDERR. - Fixed BUG#22290 - Driver issues truncation on write exception when it shouldn't (due to sending big decimal incorrectly to server with server-side prepared statement). - Driver now sends numeric 1 or 0 for client-prepared statement setBoolean() calls instead of '1' or '0'. - Fixed bug where driver would not advance to next host if roundRobinLoadBalance=true and the last host in the list is down. - Fixed BUG#18258 - DatabaseMetaData.getTables(), columns() with bad catalog parameter threw exception rather than return empty result set (as required by spec). - Check and store value for continueBatchOnError property in constructor of Statements, rather than when executing batches, so that Connections closed out from underneath statements don't cause NullPointerExceptions when it's required to check this property. - Fixed BUG#21814 - time values outside valid range silently wrap. - Fixed bug when calling stored functions, where parameters weren't numbered correctly (first parameter is now the return value, subsequent parameters if specified start at index "2"). - Fixed BUG#21814 - time values outside valid range silently wrap. - -- Mark Matthews MySQL AB, Software Development Manager - Client Connectivity www.mysql.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (MingW32) iD8DBQFFOS8OtvXNTca6JD8RAttIAKCZ+FHp4R3K5ZQyXSvOQB78IkGsaACeLoCc yT2opRUxa/uv1IqhDUkAs0Q= =F1H5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
