Changes in MySQL Connector/J 8.0.14 (2019-01-21, General
Availability)

 * Functionality Added or Changed

 * Bugs Fixed

Functionality Added or Changed


 * Important Change: For MySQL Server 8.0.14 and later,
   5.7.25 and later, 5.6.43 and later, and 5.5.63 and later,
   minimal permissions on named pipes are granted to clients
   that use them to connect to the server. Connector/J,
   however, can only use named pipes when granted full
   access on them. As a workaround, the MySQL Server that
   Connector/J wants to connect to must be started with the
   system variable named_pipe_full_access_group; see the
   description for the system variable for more details.
   (Bug #28971500)

 * X DevAPI: getDefaultSchema() now returns null when no
   default schema has been set for the Session.

 * Connector/J now has a new property for building from
   source, com.mysql.cj.build.verbose, which controls the
   verbosity of the build process' output. Its default value
   is false, which makes the output considerably shorter
   comparing with earlier versions of Connector/J.
   (Bug #28970166)

 * The method ResultSet.getBoolean() now returns FALSE when
   the designated column is of data type CHAR or VARCHAR and
   contains an "N" or "n". This makes Connector/J 8.0
   behaves like Connector/J 5.1 when it comes to converting
   strings to booleans. (Bug #28706219, Bug #92574)

 * Connector/J is now capable of reading and, if needed,
   ignoring any initial notice packets sent by X Plugin
   before an X Protocol connection is established.

Bugs Fixed


 * X DevAPI: Connector/J returned a NullPointerException
   when an application tried to establish an XProtocol
   connection using a Windows named pipe, which is not
   supported. With this fix, an XProtoclException is
   returned instead.
   This fix also makes sure that instead of a
   NullPointerException, a proper exception is thrown when
   an application tries to establish a Classic MySQL
   Protocol connection with a named pipe, but the named pipe
   is not specified at connection or it cannot be found on
   the specified path. (Bug #28606708)

 * X DevAPI: Adding an empty document with executeAsync()
   resulted in an ERROR 5013 (Missing row data for Insert).
   With this fix, no error or warning is returned in the
   case. (Bug #23045642)

 * Collection.count() returned a wrong error message when
   the collection did not exist. (Bug #28924137)

 * The source code of Connector/J contains non-ASCII
   characters, which might cause encoding issues during
   compilation if the system did not also use a UTF-8
   locale. With this fix, the build script now handles
   non-ASCII characters well regardless of the system
   locale. (Bug #28894344)

 * A memory leak occurred if Connector/J was loaded via the
   bootstrap class path instead of the main application
   classpath. It was because
   AbandonedConnectionCleanupThread failed to initialize its
   internal thread in that case, so that references for
   closed connections were not cleaned up, and their number
   kept growing. This fix repairs the clean up process for
   closed connections and also makes the process thread
   safe. (Bug #28747636, Bug #92508)

 * clearInputStream() returned a NullPointerException when
   the mysqlSocket, mysqlInput, or mysqlOutput object it
   tried to retrieve was null. With this fix, an IOExcpetion
   is thrown instead in the situation. Thanks to Henning
   Schmiedehausen for contributing to the fix.
   (Bug #28731795, Bug #92625)

 * Updating a result set returned by a server-side prepared
   statement with SELECT ... FOR UPDATE
   (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/select.html)
   resulted in an SQLException. (Bug #28692243, Bug #92536)

 * When the connection property zeroDateTimeBehavior was set
   to CONVERT_TO_NULL, Connector/J converted a TIME
   (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/time.html) type
   

MySQL Connector/J 5.1.47 GA has been released

2018-08-17 Thread Surabhi Bhat

Dear MySQL Users,

MySQL Connector/J 5.1.47, a maintenance release of the production 5.1
branch has been released. Connector/J is the Type-IV pure-Java JDBC
driver for MySQL.

MySQL Connector/J is available in source and binary form from the
Connector/J download pages at
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/5.1.html
and mirror sites as well as Maven-2 repositories.

MySQL Connector/J (Commercial) is already available for download on
the My Oracle Support (MOS) website. This release will shortly be
available on eDelivery (OSDC).

As always, we recommend that you check the "CHANGES" file in the
download archive to be aware of changes in behavior that might affect
your application.

MySQL Connector/J 5.1.47 includes the following general bug fixes and
improvements, also available in more detail on
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/connector-j/5.1/en/news-5-1-47.html


Changes in MySQL Connector/J 5.1.47 (2018-08-17, General Availability)

   Version 5.1.47 is a maintenance release of the production 5.1 branch.

8.0. It supports the Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) 4.2 API.

Functionality Added or Changed


 * The value UTF-8 for the connection property
   characterEncoding now maps to the utf8mb4 character set
   on the server and, for MySQL Server 5.5.2 and later,
   characterEncoding=UTF-8 can now be used to set the
   connection character set to utf8mb4 even if
   character_set_server has been set to something else on
   the server. (Before this change, the server must have
   character_set_server=utf8mb4 for Connector/J to use that
   character set.)
   Also, if the connection property connectionCollation is
   also set and is incompatible with the value of
   characterEncoding, characterEncoding will be overridden
   with the encoding corresponding to connectionCollation.
   See Using Character Sets and Unicode
   (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-j/5.1/en/connector-j- 
<http://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-j/5.1/en/connector-j-reference-charsets.html>reference-charsets.html 
<http://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-j/5.1/en/connector-j-reference-charsets.html>)

   for details, including how to use the utf8mb3 character
   set now for connection. (Bug#23227334, Bug #81196)

Bugs Fixed


 * Setting rewriteBatchedStatements=true and
   useLocalTransactionState=true caused transactions to be
   uncommitted for batched UPDATE and DELETE statements. It
   was due to the intermediate queries for enabling
   multiquery support on the server resetting the local
   transaction state as a side effect. With this fix, the
   local transaction state is preserved when the
   intermediate queries are executed. (Bug #27658489, Bug
   #89948)

 * Rewriting prepared INSERT statements in a multiquery
   batch failed with a BatchUpdateException when the
   statements did not contain place holders. This was due a
   faulty mechanism for query rewriting, which has been
   corrected by this fix. (Bug #25501750, Bug #84813)

 * When using batched prepared statements with multiple
   queries per statement, queries rewriting was incorrect,
   resulting in the wrong queries being sent to the server.
   (Bug #23098159, Bug #81063)

 * ResultSet.updateRow() failed when the character set used
   by a column in the ResultSet did not match that of the
   connection's encoding. With this fix, values for the
   affected columns are first converted to String before the
   update, so that the character set difference is properly
   handled. (Bug #22847443, Bug #80532)

 * Record updates failed for a scrollable and updatable
   PreparedStatement when the WHERE clause for the updater
   or refresher contained fractional timestamp values and
   the connection property sendFractionalSeconds was set to
   false. It was because in the situation, Connector/J did
   not perform the proper adjustments of the fractional
   parts in the WHERE clause values according to the length
   of the field's fractional part as defined in the
   database. This fix makes Connector/J perform the proper
   adjustment to the fractional part, so that the WHERE
   clause value can be properly compared to the value
   fetched from the database.
   Moreover, useJDBCCompliantTimezoneShift(),
   useGmtMillisForDatetimes(), and
   useSSPSCompatibleTimezoneShift() were applied to the
   WHERE clause values while they should not be, and this
   fix removes their applications. (Bug #22305979)

 * When a Java Date value was bound to a PreparedStatement
   parameter, attempts to format the value by a proleptic

 * Functionality Added or Changed

 * Bugs Fixed

Functionality Added or Changed


 * X DevAPI: The following changes have been made to the
   API:

  + Removed ModifyStatement.arrayDelete() and
    ModifyStatement.merge().

  + Renamed Colletion.find().limit().skip() to
    Colletion.find().limit().offset().

  + To simplify the class hierarchy and to have the
    class names reflect better the classes' functions,
    the following changes have been made:
   o The FindParams class has been renamed to
 FilterParams
   o The AbstractFindParams class has been renamed
 to AbstractFilterParams
   o The DocFindParams class has been renamed to
 DocFilterParams
   o The TableFindParams class has been renamed to
 TableFilterParams
    Notice that the methods in the original FilterParams
    class have been moved under the new
    AbstractFilterParams class.
   (Bug #28027459)

 * X DevAPI: Connector/J now uses synchronous client sockets
   (java.net.Socket) by default to communicate with MySQL
   servers for X Protocol connections. While asynchronous
   sockets can still be used by setting the connection
   property xdevapi.useAsyncProtocol=true, this is not
   recommended, as it might result in performance
   degradation for Connector/J. (Bug #27522054)

 * X DevAPI: Connector/J now gives provision for the use of
   a custom socket factory for X Protocol connections to
   MySQL Servers using Unix domain sockets. See Section 6.8,
   "Connecting Using Unix Domain Sockets" for details.

 * Connector/J now retrieves the MySQL keyword list from the
   INFORMATION_SCHEMA.KEYWORDS (
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/keywords-table.html
   ) table on the MySQL server when a connection session
   is established. The list can then be accessed by calling
   DatabaseMetaData.getSQLKeywords().

 * To simplify the code, the ReadableProperty and
   ModifiableProperty classes have been consolidated into
   the RuntimeProperty class.

Bugs Fixed


 * X DevAPI: When creating an X DevAPI session using a
   Properties map instead of a connection string, referring
   to property keys like host, port, and protocol in
   lowercase caused a NullPointerException. With the fix,
   both upper and lower cases can now be used.
   (Bug#27652379)

 * X DevAPI: When using the getConnection() method with the
   mysqlx: scheme in the connection URL, Connector/J
   returned an ordinary JDBC connection instead of an
   X-Protocol connection. (Bug #26089880)

 * If wait_timeout was set on the server and the Connector/J
   had the connection property interactiveClient=false, or
   if interactive_timeout was set on the server and
   Connector/J had the connection property
   interactiveClient=true, a connection is invalidated when
   it has idled for a longer time than the set timeout. When
   such a timeout occurred, Connector/J threw a
   CJCommunicationsException, without indicating it was a
   timeout. With this fix, the error message returned
   explains the issue and suggests how to avoid it.
   (Bug#27977617, Bug #90753)

 * When an application tried to connect to a non-MySQL
   database through some JDBC driver and Connector/J
   happened to be on the class path also, Connector/J threw
   a SQLNonTransientConnectionException, which prevented the
   application from connecting to its database. With this
   fix, Connector/J returns null whenever a connection
   string does not start with jdbc:mysql: or mysqlx:, so
   connections to non-MySQL databases are not blocked.

 * Update the time zone mappings using the latest IANA and
   CLDR time zone databases. (Bug #25946965)

 * A new option for the loadBalancingStrategy connection
   property called serverAffinity has been added. The
   servers listed in the new connection property
   serverAffinityOrder (which should be a subset of the
   servers in the host list of the connection URL) are
   contacted in the order they are listed until a server is
   available or until the list of servers is exhausted, at
   which point a random load-balancing strategy is used with

   serverAffinityOrder in Driver/Datasource Class Names, URL
   Syntax and Configuration Properties for Connector/J

(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-j/5.1/en/connector-j-reference-configuration-properties.html) 


   for details. (Bug #20182108)

   Bugs Fixed

 * Secure JDBC connections did not fall back to the default
   truststore when a custom one was not provided. (Bug
   #26243128)

 * Connector/J failed a number of regression tests in the
   testsuite related to geographic information system (GIS)
   functions because of changes to GIS support by the MySQL
   server. The fix corrects the tests. (Bug #26239946, Bug
   #26140577)

 * Attempts to connect to a server started with collation
   utf8mb4_de_pb_0900_ai_ci resulted in null pointer
   exceptions. (Bug #26090721)

 * In com/mysql/jdbc/ServerPreparedStatement.java, the
   arguments resultSetType and resultSetConcurrency for a
   call of Connection.preparedStatement() were swapped. (Bug
   #25874048, Bug #85885)

 * A NullPointerException was returned when getDate(),
   getTime(), or getTimestamp() was called with a null
   Calendar. This fix makes Connector/J throw an
   SQLException in the case. (Bug #25650305)

 * Some JDBC proxied objects were missing the proper
   handling of the equals() methods, thus even comparison of
   one of these proxied objects to its own self with
   equals() yielded false. This patch introduces proper
   handling for the equals() method in all the relevant
   proxies. (Bug #21931572, Bug #78313)

 * A server-side prepared statement was not closed when the
   same statement was being prepared again while the
   original statement was being cached. This was caused by
   the silent replacement of the cache entry of the old
   statement by the new. When this happened repeatedly, it
   caused eventually the complaint that
   max_prepared_stmt_count was exceeded. This fix makes sure
   that when a cache entry for a statement replaces an older
   one, the older statement is immediately closed. (Bug
   #20066806, Bug #74932)

   Functionality Added or Changed

 * A null value can now be extracted from a result set to a
   class belonging to the java.time package. Before, such an
   extraction resulted in a NullPointerException being
   thrown. Thanks to Martin Desharnais for contributing the
   code. (Bug #25250938, Bug #84189)

 * Connector/J now checks that a MySQL server's SSL
   certificate and the Certificate Authority (CA) that
   issued it are not expired before establishing an SSL
   connection with the server, even if the connection
   property verifyServerCertificate is set to false. (Bug
   #20515688)

 * Name-value pairs contained in the connection property
   sessionVariables can now be separated by either commas or
   a semicolons. (Bug #17757070)

   Bugs Fixed

 * An invalid timezone identifier was used in
   StatementRegressionTest.java of the Connector/J
   testsuite. (Bug #25687718, Bug #85351)

 * A mysql client failed to establish an SSL connection to
   the server using the SSL certificates provided in the
   Connector/J source package. It was because the
   certificates have been generated with the same Common
   Name. This fix corrects the Common Names and regenerates
   the SSL certificates. (Bug #25636947)

 * The unit test testsuite.simple.ResultSetTest.testPadding
   failed with the error Unknown character set: 'gb18030'
   after the collation map updates in release 5.1.40. (Bug
   #25556597)

 * In a multi-host connection, query timeouts did not occur
   as configured. It was because the CancelTask thread, when
   trying to access the top level, virtual connection
   object, ran into a race condition with the connection
   monitor and then hung. With this fix, the CancelTask
   thread is passed a direct reference to the underlying
   physical connection, with which it can execute the
   cancellation. (Bug #25490163, Bug #84783)

 * CallableStatement.extractProcedureName() did not return
   the correct result when the procedure name contained a
   dash. This was due to an error in the stripComments()
   method of the StringUtils class, which has now been
   corrected. (Bug #25321524, Bug #84324)

 * The ConnectionImpl.isReadOnly() method returned a
   confusing error message when it could not retrieve the
   read-only status of the server. The message has now been
   changed to "Could not retrieve transaction read-only
   status from server." (Bug #25101890, Bug #83834)

 * A NullPointerException was thrown when a null boolean
   value was being read from the database. (Bug #25048406,
   Bug #83662)

 * After a BIT value had been retrieved from a result set,
   the wasNull() method of the result set returned value for
   the last wasNull() query instead of the value for the
   last retrieved column. (Bug #24841670, Bug #83368)

 * Using a partially-quoted identifier (with only the
   database or the procedure name quoted) or a non-existent
   parameter to register an output parameter in a
   CallableStatement caused a NullPointerException. With
   this fix, a partially-quoted identifier is accepted, and
   a non-existent parameter causes a SQLError to be thrown.
   (Bug #22333996, Bug #79561)

 * DatabaseMetaData.getProcedureColumns() and
   DatabaseMetaData.getFunctionColumns() did not return
   expected results. This was due to the errors with the
   matching algorithm for the column names, which have now
   been fixed. Notice that, however, the effects of the

 * Connections failed with MySQLSyntaxErrorException:
   Unknown character set when
   connectionCollation=ISO-8859-13. This was due to a wrong
   logic in Connector/J's internal charset mapping, which
   has now been fixed. (Bug #25504578)

 * When loading classes through some external class loaders,
   com.mysql.jdbc.Util threw an NoClassDefFoundError. This
   was caused by Class.getPackage() returning null when some
   external class loaders were used. This fix replaces those
   calls of Class.getPackage() with calls of the new method
   Class.getName(), which return package names that are
   extracted from the fully-qualified class names. (Bug

 * In the manifest for the Connector/J JAR file, the
   Import-Package directive specified version numbers for
   the javax.net.ssl package. The specification was
   unnecessary, and it caused the configuration of an SSL
   connection to a MySQL server to fail in an OSGi
   environment. The version requirement has now been
   removed. (Bug #24942672, Bug #82826)

 * In a Fabric setup, when multiple threads required to have
   hashes computed, an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException might
   be thrown from inside HashShardMapping. This fix prevents
   the issue by having
   HashShardMapping.getShardIndexForKey() synchronized. (Bug
   #24289730, Bug #82203)

 * When the configuration property cacheResultSetMetadata
   was set to true, a ping query using a PreparedStatement
   failed with a NullPointerException. This fix moves the
   ping query to an earlier stage of the statement
   execution, which prevents the exception. (Bug #23535001,
   Bug #81706)

 * The setFabricShardTable() method failed to parse
   qualified table names (in the format of
   database_name.table_name), which causes SQLExceptions to
   be thrown. (Bug #23264511, Bug #81108)

 * A race condition occurred when a call of
   Connection.setNetworkTimeout() was followed closely by a
   call of Connection.close(), and a NullPointerException
   might result if the connection was closed before the
   executor supplied to setNetworkTimeout() was able to set
   the timeout, as the executor would run into a null
   mysqlConnection object. This fix removed the race
   condition. (Bug #21181249, Bug #75615)

 * With the connection properties
   cacheServerConfiguration=true and
   elideSetAutoCommits=true, any new connection to the
   server obtained after the first connection was
   established had the variable autoCommit equaled false,
   even if the value of the variable was true on the server.
   That was because the value of autoCommit was not properly
   initialized when a new connection was established, and
   this fix corrects that.
   Also, since release 5.1.41, the functionality of the
   property elideSetAutoCommits has been disabled due to
   Bug# 66884. Any value given for the property is now
   ignored by Connector/J. (Bug #17756825, Bug #70785)

 * When using Tomcat and a web application that utilized
   Connector/J was down, Tomcat was unable to stop the
   AbandonedConnectionCleanupThread started internally by
   Connector/J, leading to multiple instances of the thread
   when the web application was restarted; or, Tomcat was
   able to stop the thread but unable to restart it on
   reload of the web application. Different combinations of
   Tomcat's default settings, usage of Tomcat's
   ServletContextListener feature, and

MySQL Connector/J 6.0.3 m2 Development Release has been released

2016-06-24 Thread [Eventum] Hery Ramilison

Dear MySQL users,

MySQL Connector/J 6.0.3 m2 Development Release is a developer milestone
release for the 6.0.x series.

It is the second public release of the current Connector/J 6.0 development
branch, providing an insight to upcoming features. Although some of
these are still under development, this release includes the following
new features and changes, also described in more detail on
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/connector-j/en/news-6-0-3.html.

As always, we recommend that you check the "CHANGES" file in the download
archive to be aware of changes in behavior that might affect your 
application.


Enjoy!

Changes in MySQL Connector/J 6.0.3 m2 (2016-06-24)

 Functionality Added or Changed

   * For MySQL server 5.7.5 and later, the EOF packet in the
 MySQL server/client protocol has been deprecated and
 replaced by the OK packet. The change is now supported by
 Connector/J. (Bug #23212347)

   * SSL is now supported for connections to a MySQL server
 using the X Protocol. (Bug #21532788)

   * The following objects are no longer extensions of the
 Extension interface, but get their own implementations
 now, which reduces their dependencies on other objects:

+ BalanceStrategy

+ ProfilerEventHandler

+ AuthenticationPlugin

 Bugs Fixed

   * An excessive amount of memory was used when the
 connection properties enablePacketDebug and traceProtocol
 were both set to "true." (Bug #23535571)

   * Connector/J hung, returned a NullPointerException, or
 returned an incorrect exception when using result sets
 with the properties TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY and
 CONCUR_UPDATABLE. It was due to an inaccurate check for
 the cursor for the result set. This fix makes sure
 Connector/J checks accurately on whether a cursor has
 been requested, both when executing a statement and
 fetching its results. (Bug #23201930)

   * When using server-side prepared statements with
 profileSQL=true and useInformationSchema=true, an
 SQLException (" ResultSet is from UPDATE. No Data")
 occurred when the client tried to advance to the next row
 in the result set. This was due to a failure of an
 internal query for metadata, which is now prevented by
 this fix. (Bug #23188498)

   * The download package for Connector/J 6.0.2 Milestone 1
 contained the Developer Guide for the wrong version of
 Connector/J. (Bug #23111273, Bug #81089)

   * A NullPointerException occurred in
 com.mysql.cj.mysqlx.io.AsyncMessageReader due to a race
 condition when there were more than 2000 concurrent
 connections taking place. (Bug #23044312)

   * getTimestamp() returned wrong value for the fractional
 part of a TIME or DATETIME field. (Bug #22932078)

   * LoadBalanceConnectionGroupManager.removeHost() was not
 removing hosts as expected. This fix tries to ensure that
 host removals will be successful under different
 situations. (Bug #22848249)
 References: See also: Bug #22678872.

   * For a load-balanced connection, an
 ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException was thrown when
 ConnectionGroupManager.removeHost() was called. It was
 due to an error in
 LoadBalancedConnectionProxy.removeHost(), which has now
 been fixed. (Bug #22730682)

   * A Fabric connection threw a NullPointerException when all
 hosts have been removed from its host list, or when the
 internal load-balanced connection became null due to
 inconsistency of the replication connection. This fix
 adds to Connector/J the abilities to handle those
 situations. Also, a new connection property,
 loadBalanceHostRemovalGracePeriod, has been introduced,
 which sets the grace period for waiting to remove the
 currently active host from a load-balanced connection.
 See the entry for the new property in Driver/Datasource
 Class Names, URL Syntax and Configuration Properties for
 Connector/J
 (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-j/6.0/en/connector-j-
 reference-configuration-properties.html) for details.
 (Bug #22678872)
 References: See also: Bug #22848249.

   * With some Tomcat web applications, when Connector/J
 connects to the server with useLegacyDatetimeCode=false
 without setting serverTimeZone, a NullPointerException
 was returned. This was because the timezone property file
 for Connector/J was loaded by the bootstrap class loader,
 which did not know the location of the property file and
 thus failed to load it. This fix avoids the problem by
 making Connector/J use the same class loader for both the

MySQL Connector/J 5.1.39 has been released

2016-05-09 Thread Hery Ramilison

Hello all,

MySQL Connector Java 5.1.39, a maintenance release of the production 5.1
branch, has been released. Connector/J is a Type-IV pure-Java JDBC driver
for MySQL, supporting the JDBC 4.2 API.  It is suitable for use with MySQL
server versions 5.5, 5.6, and 5.7.

MySQL Connector Java is available in source and binary form from the
Connector/J download page at
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/5.1.html

MySQL Connector Java (Commercial) is available for download on the My
Oracle Support (MOS) website. This release will be available on
eDelivery (OSDC) in next month's upload cycle.

As always, we recommend that you check the "CHANGES" file in the

Changes in MySQL Connector/J 6.0.2 (2016-04-11, Milestone 1)

   Version 6.0.2 Milestone 1 is the first development release of the
   6.0 branch of MySQL Connector/J.

   The major features of Connector/J 6.0 include:

 * Supports MySQL 5.5, 5.6, and 5.7.

 * Supports the JDBC 4.2 specification.

 * Supports the Java 8 platform (use Connector/J 5.1 for
   Java 7 or earlier).

 * Supports the new X DevAPI. The X DevAPI enables
   application developers to write code that combines the
   strengths of the relational and document models using a
   modern, NoSQL-like syntax that does not assume previous
   experience writing traditional SQL. To learn more about
   how to write applications using the X DevAPI see the X
   DevAPI User's Guide
   (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/x-devapi-userguide/en/).
   For more information about how the X DevAPI is
   implemented in Connector/J, MySQL Connector/J X DevAPI
   Reference (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/dev/connector-j).
   Please note that the X DevAPI requires at least MySQL
   Server version 5.7.12 or higher with the X Plugin
   enabled. For general documentation about how to get started
   using MySQL as a Document Store, see
   (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/document-store.html).

   For other significant changes from Connector/J 5.1 to 6.0,
   see Changes in Connection Properties
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-j/6.0/en/connector-j-properties-changed.html) 


   and Changes in the Connector/J API
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-j/6.0/en/connector-j-api-changes.html).
   Connector/J 6.0.2 includes all the bug fixes that have been
   incorporated into Connector/J 5.1.38, plus the fixes
   described below.

   Bugs Fixed

 * FabricMySQLDataSource.getConnection() threw a null pointer
   exception when a master failover took place. (Bug
   #22598938)

 * The OSGi manifest file in the Connector/J JAR file did not
   expose the MySQL Fabric packages, so the Fabric-related
   classes could not be resolved even though they were
   present in the JAR file. (Bug #22385172)

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/connector-j/en/news-5-1-38.html :

Changes in MySQL Connector/J 5.1.38 (2015-12-07)

   Functionality Added or Changed

 * When connecting to a MySQL server 5.7 instance that
   supports TLS, Connector/J now prefers a TLS over a plain
   TCP connection. (Bug #21947042)

 * Two new connection properties, allowSlaveDownConnections
   and readFromMasterWhenNoSlaves, have been introduced for
   configuring replication-aware connections. See
   Configuring Master/Slave Replication with Connector/J
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-j/en/connector-j-master-slave-replication-connection.html)
   and the entries for the new properties in Driver/Datasource
   Class Names, URL Syntax and Configuration Properties for
   Connector/J 
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-j/en/connector-j-reference-configuration-properties.html)

   for details. (Bug #21286268)

   Bugs Fixed

 * In a Fabric environment, a ClassCastException resulted
   when a stored procedure was called with an INOUT
   parameter. This was because in this situation, what was
   being cast was a proxied version of the object. This fix
   extracts the underlying object from its proxy, allowing
   it to be cast to the implementing class. (Bug #22096981)

 * getTypeInfo() erroneously returned a PRECISION value of
   "255" instead of "65535" for the data type VARBINARY.
   (Bug #21978216)

 * A deadlock was observed when in the same server group,
   two concurrent threads were using different Fabric
   connections, and one executed a failover procedure while
   the other simultaneously called a method that acquired a
   lock on the underlying replication connection instance
   monitor. This fix revised the locking mechanism of
   replication connections, in order to prevent the observed
   deadlocks. (Bug #21966391, Bug #21934573, Bug #78710)

 * State information of a Fabric group was not updated by
   Connector/J after a local cache's Time to Live (TTL)
   expired, which resulted in the client not recognizing any
   topology changes happening to the group like a master
   failover, a server rejoining, and so on. (Bug #21296840,
   Bug #17910835)

 * Connector/J threw an AbstractMethodError when a JDBC 4
   functionality (for example, createBlob()) was used on a
   replication-aware connection. This has been fixed by
   putting replication connections under the multi-host
   connection proxy structure that Connector/J has been
   using for load-balanced and fail-over connections. (Bug
   #11763419)
   References: See also Bug #11763401.

 * After the initial call of Connection.setReadOnly()
   following the creation of a replication-aware connection,
   subsequent calls of Connection.setReadOnly() could not
   change the nature of the connection. This has been fixed
   by putting replication connections under the multi-host
   connection proxy structure that Connector/J has been
   using for load-balanced and fail-over connections. (Bug
   #11763401)

Changes in MySQL Connector/J 5.1.37 (2015-10-15)

Functionality Added or Changed

  * Connector/J now supports the JSON data type, which has
been supported by the MySQL server since release 5.7.8.

  * methodCompressedInputStream.getNextPacketFromServer() has
been refactored to reduce memory use and garbage
collection efforts caused by the use of the inflater.
(Bug #21648826, Bug #78106)

  * The code for executing a REPLACE statement when
rewriteBatchedStatements=true has been refactored by
putting multiple batched statements into a single query,
making it work more like an INSERT statement. This
increases the efficiency for running REPLACE statements.
Thanks to Jie Han for contributing the code. (Bug
#21429909, Bug #77681)

  * A new connection property,
truncateFractionalSeconds=true|false, has been
introduced. It controls whether fractional seconds in
timestamps are to be truncated on the client side or to
be sent to the server side for truncation there. See the
entry for the new property in Driver/Datasource Class
Names, URL Syntax and Configuration Properties for
Connector/J
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-j/en/connector-j-refe
rence-configuration-properties.html) for details. Thanks
to Kwon Nam Son for contributing the code. (Bug
#21304726, Bug #77449)

  * A new connection property, enableEscapeProcessing, has
been introduced for supporting JDBC 4.2. It sets the
default escape processing behavior for Statement objects.
See the entry for the new property in Driver/Datasource
Class Names, URL Syntax and Configuration Properties for
Connector/J
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-j/en/connector-j-refe
rence-configuration-properties.html) for details.

Bugs Fixed

  * A ClassCastException resulted for a Fabric connection
when rewriteBatchedStatements was "true" and a batch
update was rewritten. (Bug #21876798)

  * A number of regression tests in the testsuite failed when
they were run against MySQL 5.7, because the
NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER SQL mode had become the default
behavior of the server since MySQL 5.7.7, making some
GRANT statements in the test fail when a new user had to
be created. With this fix, CREATE USER statements have
been added to the regressions tests when needed, to
prevent the test failures. (Bug #21697684, Bug #78225)

  * Connecting to MySQL 5.0 and 5.1 using Connector/J 5.1.36
resulted in an SQLException, with a complaint for an
"Unknown system variable 'language'". (Bug #21415165, Bug
#77665)

  * The IS_GENERATEDCOLUMN field was empty in the result
returned by DatabaseMetaData.getColumns(). This fix
corrects the field so that it contains a YES or NO
according to whether the column is generated or not. (Bug
#20969312, Bug #76859)

  * getTypeInfo() returned an incorrect PRECISION value of
"255" for the data type of VARCHAR. The return value has
been corrected to "65535." (Bug #20675539, Bug #76187)

  * When a connection is forcefully closed with
abortInternal() in the ConnectionImpl class, a null point
exception sometimes resulted. This is now avoided by
putting the associated this.io.releaseResources() call
inside a try block, so that the exception, unavoidable
due to a race condition, can be properly caught and
ignored. (Bug #20536592, Bug #75849)

  * If the MySQL server's default authentication method was
SHA256 but neither one of the Connector/J connection
properties allowPublicKeyRetrieval and
serverRSAPublicKeyFile was set, the authentication failed
with a TransientConnectionException, complaining that the
public key could not be retrieved. With this fix,
authentication continues in the situation, allowing other
enabled authentication methods to be tried. (Bug

MySQL Connector/J 5.1.36 has been released

2015-07-03 Thread Hery Ramilison

Hello all,

MySQL Connector/J 5.1.36, a maintenance release of the production 5.1
branch has been released. Connector/J is a Type-IV pure-Java JDBC
driver for MySQL. It is suitable for use with MySQL server versions 5.5
and 5.6.

MySQL Connector Java is available in source and binary form from the
Connector/J download pages at
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/5.1.html

MySQL Connector Java (Commercial) is available for download on the My
Oracle Support (MOS) website. This release will be available on
eDelivery (OSDC) in next month's upload cycle.

As always, we recommend that you check the CHANGES file in the
download archive to be aware of changes in behavior that might affect
your application.

MySQL Connector/J 5.1.36 includes the following general bug fixes and
improvements, also available in more detail on
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/connector-j/en/news-5-1-36.html :

Changes in MySQL Connector/J 5.1.36 (2015-07-02)

Version 5.1.36 is a maintenance release of the production 5.1
branch. It is suitable for use with MySQL server versions
5.5, and 5.6.

Functionality Added or Changed

  * The files in the Maven Central Repository for each
Connector/J release have been reorganized and a source
artifact (*-sources.jar) has been added, for release
5.1.21 and after. (Bug #20283655, Bug #75335)

Bugs Fixed

  * Results returned by DatabaseMetaData.getCatalogs() were
not properly sorted by catalog name. (Bug #21215151)

  * A ClassCastException occurred when Connector/J was
executing a streaming prepared statement in a Fabric
environment. (Bug #21184949, Bug #77217)

  * Connector/J did not use the character set specified with
the connection property passwordCharacterEncoding for
authentication. With this fix, the property is now
honored. If it is not set, Connector/J uses the value of
characterEncoding instead; if even that is not set,
Conenctor/J defaults to UTF-8 for the password's
encoding. (Bug #20825727)

  * A failover did not occur for a MySQL Fabric connection
during the failure of a master server. It was because the
state change of the Fabric connection group was not
handled properly, which hs been corrected by this fix.
(Bug #20821888, Bug #75113)

  * When the getDate() and getTime() methods of ResultSet
were called to retrieve values with fractional seconds, a
bad format error occurred. With this fix, the
fractional seconds are dropped before the retrieved
values are converted into a Date or Time object. (Bug
#20804635)

  * A StringIndexOutOfBoundsException occurred when
getProcedureColumns() were trying to return ENUM or SET
type procedures or functions that involved reserved
words. That was caused by a problem in the parser for the
functions' or procedures' CREATE statements, which this
fix corrects. (Bug #20727196)

  * At every connection, Connector/J executed a SHOW
VARIABLES WHERE statement over a multitude of variables,
which consumed a lot of time and memory. To improve the
efficiency of the code, this fix replaces the statement
with the more efficient SELECT @@variable query and also
implements some other related changes. (Bug #20408891,
Bug #75592)

  * getProcedures(), getFunctions(), getProcedureColumns(),
and getFunctionColumns() returned duplicate results when
the connection parameter nullCatalogMeansCurrent was set
to false. (Bug #19803348)

  * An UnsupportedEncodingException during handshake gave
rise to a NullPointerException. With this fix, the
NullPointerException is no longer thrown, and a proper
error message is provided by Connector/J. (Bug #18758686,
Bug #72630)

  * When using Connector/J with MySQL Fabric, the
createGroup() method failed with a ClassCastException.
(Bug #18719760, Bug #72546)

  * Using Connector/J to connect with non-null user name and
password to a MySQL Fabric server that had authentication
disabled resulted in a NullPointerException. (Bug
#18425861, Bug #72077)

  * The change user functionality in Connector/J was
dependent on Bug# 70865 of the MySQL server (for releases
5.5 and later, the server unnecessarily sends a
plugin_request_packet for every COM_CHANGE_USER packet).
That dependence made the
com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlConnectionPoolDataSour
ce interface fail for server versions or forks that did
not have the same bug. This fix removes that dependence
and makes the interface function properly, whether the
server suffers Bug# 70865 or not. (Bug #17810800, Bug
#70927)

  * JDBC4MySQLPooledConnection keeps a list of
statementEventListener instances named
statementEventListeners, which is used as monitor lock
whenever the fireStatementEvent() method is called.
However, because the pooled connection's close() method
set statementEventListener to be null, if a prepared
statement was closed

Version 5.1.35 is a maintenance release of the production 5.1
branch. It is suitable for use with MySQL server versions
5.5, and 5.6.

Functionality Added or Changed

  * The failover support by Connector/J has been refactored
to be implemented independently of Connector/J's
load-balancing feature. This resolves a number of issues
including, for example, (1) a failover being triggered
inadvertently, (2) a failover process kept trying to
connect to an unavailable server (while there was an
available one), and (3) the number of active connections
kept growing until Connector/J threw an exception when
there were successive failovers within the same
connection. (The issues are regressions of Bug #75168.)
(Bug #20533907, Bug #75885)

  * Connector/J now exposes the PreparedStatment.ParseInfo
class for external usage, with no capture of the
connection, which allows global, highly-concurrent parse
caches to be implemented.

  * A number of new configuration properties have been
introduced:

   + enabledSSLCipherSuites: For setting the enabled
 cipher suites used by JSSE. This configuration
 property needs to be set when using Java 7 or lower
 or MySQL Server Community edition version 5.7.6 or
 higher.

   + readOnlyPropagatesToServer: For controlling the
 implicit propagation of the read-only transaction
 access mode to the server, which affects
 optimization for InnoDB read-only transactions.

   + noTimezoneConversionForDateType and
 cacheDefaultTimezone: For improving Connector/J's
 time zone support; see the changelog entry for Bug
 #18028319/Bug #71084 below for details.
See the descriptions for these properties in
Driver/Datasource Class Names, URL Syntax and
Configuration Properties for Connector/J
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-j/en/connector-j-refe
rence-configuration-properties.html) for more details.

Bugs Fixed

  * Issues with a number of the regression tests in the
Connector/J test suite caused them to fail when they were
run against MySQL 5.7.6. Those tests have now been fixed.
(Bug #20606107)

  * Calling the function Clob.setString() with valid input
resulted in a string index out of bounds exception. (Bug
#20453712)

  * Calling the function Clob.position() resulted in an
exception, because the function passed the wrong index
value to the getSubString() function. (Bug #20453712)

  * When in streaming mode, if Connector/J encountered an
exception while reading from the stream, a subsequent
call to the close() method of the result set would put
the thread into a blocking state, from which it would not
exit. With this fix, the result set can now be properly
closed when, due to an error, there is no more data to be
loaded from the stream. (Bug #20272931, Bug #75309)

  * The setTimestamp method failed in a Fabric connection
with a null pointer exception. It was because the
implementation for the getCalendarInstanceForSessionOrNew
method was missing, which has been added by this fix to
Connector/J. (Bug #20217686, Bug #75080)

  * When using JDBC 4 features of Connector/J 5.1 with JDK 6
and above, custom implementations of the interface
LoadBalanceExceptionChecker failed to work. This was
because most of the JDBC 4-specific classes of
Connector/J do not implement a JDBC interface directly,
but extend other JDBC 3 classes instead, so that the
LoadBalancingConnectionProxy.isInterfaceJdbc() check did
not work. This fix makes the checking work by extending
its search to include also the super classes. (Bug
#20204783, Bug #75168)

  * The readRemainingMultiPackets method in the MysqlIO class
returned incorrect results when a row was larger than
16MB in size. This fix corrects the wrong type conversion
occurred during the calculation, which caused the
problem. (Bug #20112694

MySQL Connector/J 5.1.31 has been released

2014-06-06 Thread Hery Ramilison

Hello all,

MySQL Connector/J 5.1.31, a maintenance release of the production 5.1
branch has been released. Connector/J is the Type-IV pure-Java JDBC
driver for MySQL.

Version 5.1.31 is suitable for use with many MySQL server versions,
including 4.1, 5.0, 5.1, 5.4, 5.5 and 5.6.

MySQL Connector Java (Commercial) is already available for download
on the My Oracle Support (MOS) website. This release will be available
on eDelivery (OSDC) in next month's upload cycle.

As always, we recommend that you check the CHANGES file in the
download archive to be aware of changes in behavior that might affect
your application.

MySQL Connector/J 5.1.31 includes the following general bug fixes and
improvements, also available in more detail on
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/connector-j/en/news-5-1-31.html :

Functionality Added or Changed (2014-06-07)

  * Added support for sha256_password authentication with RSA
encryption.

Bugs Fixed

  * The option name gatherPerfMetrics in the fullDebug.properties
file was misspelled as gatherPerMetrics. That resulted in the
performance metrics not being logged. The name has been
corrected in both the file and the Connector/J manual. (Bug
#18598665, Bug #72326)

  * The MySQL Fabric driver did not properly propagate exceptions
thrown during connection creation using JDBC 4. (Bug
#18549472, Bug #72301)

  * In the method MysqlIO.unpackBinaryResultSetRow, an array was
created unnecessarily to hold the null bit mask. With this
fix, Connector/J avoids the creation of the array by making
use of the data that is still variable in the original buffer
object. (Bug #18403456, Bug #72023)

  * When trying to get an integer from a column value that was not
a number, instead of a NumberFormatException , an
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException was thrown instead due to an
off-by-one error. This fix corrects the stop condition for
trimming spaces in the beginning of byte buffers in the
getShort(), getInt(), and getLong() methods in the StringUtils
class. (Bug #18402873, Bug #72000)

  * In the method PreparedStatement.ParseInfo, a character array
was created unnecessarily out of a string object. This fix
removed the unnecessary instantiation of the array. (Bug
#18403199, Bug #72006)

  * The StringUtils.getBytes methods have been refactored to avoid
unnecessary creations of string objects for encoding character
arrays into bytes. Also, unneeded StringBuffers are replaced
by StringBuiders. (Bug #18389973, Bug #72008)

  * When exception interceptors were used, the init() method was
called twice for each exception interceptor, once by
Util.loadExtensions() and again by
ConnectionImpl.ExceptionInterceptorChain.init(). This fix
eliminates the calls by ExceptionInterceptorChain.init(). (Bug
#18318197, Bug #71850)

  * After a non-SSL socket had been transformed into an SSL
socket, Connection was still keeping its reference to the
wrapped, non-SSL socket, failing to recognize that the type of
connection had been changed. This fix creates a new
StandardSSLSocketFactory class, which implements SocketFactory
and wraps the initial SocketFactory.afterHandshake() method.
MysqlIO.socketFactory was replaced after the socket
transformation, so that afterHandshake() is performed on the
old factory but returns the new socket. (Bug #18260918, Bug
#71753)

  * When rewriteBatchedStatements=true and useAffectedRows=true
were set, executeBatch() returned the number of affected rows
as given by the server, which was not a reliable value unless
it was a 0. That behavior was due to the fix for Bug#68562,
which was implemented in Connector/J 5.1.27 (see the changelog
for the release
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/connector-j/en/news-5-1-27.
html)), and has been breaking a number of applications that
use Connector/J. In this new fix, Connector/J returns
Statement.SUCCESS_NO_INFO as a result for each statement in
the batch as long as there are more than one batched statement
and the returned value for the affected rows from the server
is greater than 0. Connector/J returns a 0 otherwise,
which indicates that no rows have been affected. (Bug
#18009254, Bug #61213)

  * If profileSQL was enabled, a memory leak would occur after a
connection was lost and continuous attempts were made to
reconnect. It was because ProfilerEventHandlerFactory kept a
map in which dead connections kept on accumulating. This fix
refactors the ProfilerEventHandlerFactory and eliminates that
map. (Bug #16737192, Bug #55680)

  * When useCursorFetch was set to true, Connector/J would attempt
to send XA commands as server prepared statements, which were
unsupported, and the commands would have to be resent as plain
statements. This fix stops Connector/J from sending XA
commands as server prepared statements. (Bug

   Functionality Added or Changed

 * Connector/J now supports MySQL Fabric. See Using Connector/J
   with MySQL Fabric
(http://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-j/en/connector-j-usagenotes-fabric.html) 


for details.

   Bugs Fixed

 * Replaced a for loop with the System.arraycopy() method for
   copying array values in the
   MysqlIO.unpackNativeEncodedColumn() and
   LoadBalancingConnectionProxy.addHost() methods, in order to
   improve the two methods' performance. (Bug #18327245, Bug
   #71861)

 * Avoided the use of an iterator over the list of statement
   interceptors in the methods
   MysqlIO.invokeStatementInterceptorsPost() and
   MysqlIO.invokeStatementInterceptorsPre(), so that Connector/J
   does not increase the stack size unnecessarily. (Bug
   #18236388, Bug #71679)

 * Improved on the code for integer-to-hex conversion when
   building XA commands by avoiding the creation of temporary
   character arrays, thus enhancing performance. (Bug #18228302,
   Bug #71621)

 * The Field.getStringFromBytes() method created a useless byte
   array when using JVM's converter and the encoding defined by
   the connection. This fix makes the method call
   StringUtils.toString() using the original buffer instead of
   creating a temporary byte array for the call. (Bug #18228668,
   Bug #71623)

 * There were sporadic cases of the key store file being open
   hundreds of times and causing some Too many files open
   errors. This fix makes sure that in
   com.mysql.jdbc.ExportControlled and in
   MysqlIO.sendFileToServer(), the input stream for the key store
   file is explicitly closed after use. (Bug #18107621, Bug
   #71432)

 * It was intended that if a previous query on a connection had
   used the setMaxRows() method, in the next query, Connector/J
   would not cancel that by setting SQL_SELECT_LIMIT=DEFAULT if
   the query contained a LIMIT clause. However, in the actual
   implementation, the maximum row setting was reused in the
   subsequent query in various situations beyond expectation (for
   example, when a table name contains the string limit in it).
   This fix removes the LIMIT-clause parsing and replaces it by a
   better way of controlling the maximum rows per session. (Bug
   #18110320, Bug #71396)

 * When working with MySQL 5.6, calling
   PreparedStatement.setTimestamp() resulted in a
   java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException being thrown if the
   Timestamp contained a fractional second. This fix corrects the
   digit truncation performed in the formatNanos() method, which
   was the cause of the problem. (Bug #18091639)

 * Calling ResultSet.close() on an already closed ResultSet
   caused an SQLException. While the exception was silently
   discarded, it did result in performance issues. This fix makes
   Connector/J comply with the Java specification that when a
   ResultSet object is already closed, application of the close
   method on it should be a no-op. (Bug #16722637, Bug #67318)

 * Fixed the problem of the wrong source being provided when the
   build property com.mysql.jdbc.noCryptoBuild was set.

MySQL Connector/J 5.1.6 Has Been Released!

Hash: SHA1

Hi,

MySQL Connector/J 5.1.6, a maintenance release of the production 5.1
branch has been released. Connector/J is the Type-IV pure-Java JDBC
driver for MySQL.

Version 5.1.6 is suitable for use with any MySQL version including
MySQL-4.1, MySQL-5.0, MySQL-5.1 RC or the MySQL-6.0 development
release.

It is now available in source and binary form from the Connector/J
download pages at

   http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/5.1.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

and Upgrading sections

   http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/cj-upgrading.html

in the manual before upgrading as well as the CHANGES file in the
download archive to be aware of changes in behavior that might affect
your application.

We welcome and appreciate your feedback, bug reports, bug fixes, patches
etc.:

   http://forge.mysql.com/wiki/Contributing


MySQL Connector/J 5.1.6 includes the following changes:

- JDBC-4.0-ized XAConnections and datasources.

- Fixed BUG#31790 MysqlValidConnectionChecker doesn't properly
handle ReplicationConnection

- Fixed Bug#20491 - DatabaseMetadata.getColumns() doesn't return
correct column names if connection character set isn't UTF-8. (There was
a server-side component of this that was fixed late in the 5.0
development cycle, it seems, this is the last piece that fixes some
loose ends in the JDBC driver). This fix touches *all* metadata
information coming from the MySQL server itself.

- Fixed MysqlIO.nextRowFast() to only attempt to read server
warning counts and status if talking to a 4.1 or newer server (fixes a
hang when reading data from 4.0 servers).

- Made profiler event handling extensible via the
profilerEventHandler connection property.

- Fixed Bug#31823 - CallableStatement.setNull() on a stored function
would throw an ArrayIndexOutOfBounds when setting the last parameter to
null when calling setNull().

- Added SSL-related configuration property
verifyServerCertificate. If set to false, the driver won't verify
  the server's certificate when useSSL is set to true.

  When using this feature, the keystore parameters should be
secified by the clientCertificateKeyStore* properties, rather than
system properties, as the JSSE doesn't make it straightforward to have a
non-verifying trust store and the default key store.

- Fixed ResultSetMetadata.getColumnName() for result sets returned
from Statement.getGeneratedKeys() - it was returning null instead of
GENERATED_KEY as in 5.0.x.

- More applicable fix for the random load balance strategy in the
face of node non-responsive, it re-tries a *different* random node,
rather than waiting for the node to recover (for BUG#31053)

- Fixed BUG#32577 - no way to store two timestamp/datetime values
that happens over the DST switchover, as the hours end up being the same
when sent as the literal that MySQL requires.

  Note that to get this scenario to work with MySQL (since it
doesn't support per-value timezones), you need to configure your server
(or session) to be in UTC, and tell the driver not to use the legacy
date/time code by setting useLegacyDatetimeCode to false. This will
cause the driver to always convert to/from the server and client
timezone consistently.

  This bug fix also fixes BUG#15604, by adding entirely new
date/time handling code that can be switched on by
useLegacyDatetimeCode being set to false as a JDBC configuration
property. For Connector/J 5.1.x, the default is true, in trunk and
beyond it will be false (i.e. the old date/time handling code, warts
and all will be deprecated).

- Fixed BUG#32877 - Load balancing connection using best response
time would incorrectly stick to hosts that were down when the
connection was first created.

  We solve this problem with a black list that is used during the
picking of new hosts.

  If the black list ends up including all configured hosts, the
driver will retry for a configurable number of times (the
retriesAllDown configuration property, with a default of 120 times),
sleeping 250ms between attempts to pick a new connection.

  We've also went ahead and made the balancing strategy extensible.
To create a new strategy, implement the interface
com.mysql.jdbc.BalanceStrategy (which also includes our standard
extension interface), and tell the driver to use it by passing in the
class name via the loadBalanceStrategy configuration property.

- Fixed BUG#30508 - ResultSet returned by
Statement.getGeneratedKeys() is not closed automatically when statement
that created it is closed.

- Added two new connection properties,
selfDestructOnPingSecondsLifetime and
selfDestructOnPingMaxOperations

This is the first production release of our implementation of the new
JDBC-4.0 API, along with some new performance features.

Notice that there was an internal 5.1.4 release which we didn't publish
because we wanted to pull in a last-minute update from the 5.0 branch
before releasing 5.1 to production.

MySQL Connector/J 5.1.5 includes the following new features compared to
5.1.3:

- - Added autoSlowLog configuration property, overrides
slowQueryThreshold* properties, driver determines slow  queries by
those that are slower than 5 * stddev of the mean query time (outside
the 96% percentile).

- - Fixed BUG#28256 - When connection is in read-only mode, queries that
are wrapped in parentheses incorrectly identified as DML.

The following features are new, compared to the 5.0 series of Connector/J:

- - JDBC-4.0 ease-of-development features including auto-registration
with the DriverManager via the service provider mechanism, standardized
Connection validity checks and categorized SQLExceptions based on
recoverability/retry-ability and class of the underlying error.

- - JDBC-4.0 standardized unwrapping to interfaces that include vendor
extensions.

- - Support for JDBC-4.0 XML processing via JAXP interfaces to DOM, SAX
and StAX.

- - JDBC-4.0 support for setting per-connection client information
(which can be viewed in the comments section of a query via SHOW
PROCESSLIST on a MySQL server, or can be extended to support custom
persistence of the information via a public interface).

- - Support for JDBC-4.0 NCHAR, NVARCHAR and NCLOB types.

- - Added experimental support for statement interceptors via the
com.mysql.jdbc.StatementInterceptor interface, examples are in
com/mysql/jdbc/interceptors.  Implement this interface to be placed in
between query execution, so that it can be influenced (currently
experimental).

- - Improved connection establishment time by 25% through selective
retrieval of server variables.

- - Improved ResultSet.getString(). It's now twice as fast, compared to 5.0.

- - The driver now picks appropriate internal row representation (whole
row in one buffer, or individual byte[]s for each column value)
depending on heuristics, including whether or not the row has BLOB or
TEXT types and the overall row-size. The threshold for row size that
will cause the driver to use a buffer rather than individual byte[]s is
configured by the configuration property largeRowSizeThreshold, which
has a default value of 2KB. This change leads to substantial
improvements in memory usage by avoiding copying data or allocating
large blocks of memory when using streaming result sets or when
dealing with large rows.

- - Added experimental support for connection lifecycle interceptors,
which enable notifcation of lifecycle events such as connection
creation, destruction and transaction demarcation and allow code to be
plugged in to influence the behavior of these events, see the source
code of related interfaces at http://tinyurl.com/24g28y and
http://tinyurl.com/29l4xt for more details.

- - The driver will automatically adjust the server session variable
net_write_timeout when it determines its been asked for a streaming
result, and resets it to the previous value when the result set has been
consumed. (The configuration property is named
netTimeoutForStreamingResults, with a unit of seconds, the value '0'
means the driver will not try and adjust this value).

- - The data (and how it's stored) for ResultSet rows are now behind an
interface which allows us (in some cases) to allocate less memory per
row, in that for streaming result sets, we re-use the packet used to
read rows, since only one row at a time is ever active.

- - Setting rewriteBatchedStatements to true now causes
CallableStatements with batched arguments to be re-written in the form
CALL

MySQL Connector/J 5.0.8 Has Been Released

Hi,

MySQL Connector/J 5.0.8 a new version of the Type-IV all-Java JDBC
driver for MySQL has been released.

This is a bug fix release for the current production branch of
Connector/J.

We're releasing version 5.1.5 as a GA today as well, so this is the last
planned release of the 5.0 branch unless security or data corruption
bugs are reported against 5.0.

Version 5.0.8 is suitable for use with any MySQL version including
MySQL-4.1, MySQL-5.0, MySQL-5.1 RC or the MySQL-6.0 Falcon development
releases.

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

might affect your application.

We welcome and appreciate your feedback, bug reports, bug fixes, patches
etc.:

- --
Functionality added or changed
- --

- - Added two configuration parameters (both default to false)

  * blobsAreStrings  - Should the driver always treat BLOBs as Strings
specifically to work around dubious
metadata returned  by the server for
GROUP BY clauses?

  * functionsNeverReturnBlobs - Should the driver always treat data from
functions returning BLOBs as
Strings - specifically to work around dubious metadata returned by the
server for GROUP BY clauses?

- - Specifying a validation query in your connection pool that starts
with /* ping */ _exactly_ will cause the driver to instead send a ping
to the server and return a fake result set (much lighter weight), and
when using a ReplicationConnection or a LoadBalancedConnection,
will send the ping across all active connections.

- - XAConnections now start in auto-commit mode (as per JDBC-4.0
specification clarification).

- - Driver will now fall back to sane defaults for max_allowed_packet and
net_buffer_length if the server reports them incorrectly (and will log
this situation at WARN level, since it's actually an error condition).

- --
Bugs Fixed
- --

- - Fixed BUG#27182 - Connection.getServerCharacterEncoding() doesn't work
 for servers with version = 4.1.

- - Fixed Bug#27412 - cached metadata with PreparedStatement.execute()
  throws NullPointerException.

- - Fixed BUG#27867 - Schema objects with identifiers other than the
connection character aren't retrieved correctly in  ResultSetMetadata.

- - Fixed BUG#27915 - DatabaseMetaData.getColumns() doesn't contain
SCOPE_* or IS_AUTOINCREMENT columns.

- - Fixed BUG#27916 - UNSIGNED types not reported via DBMD.getTypeInfo(),
and capitalization of type names is not consistent between
DBMD.getColumns(), RSMD.getColumnTypeName() and DBMD.getTypeInfo().

This fix also ensures that the precision of UNSIGNED MEDIUMINT and
UNSIGNED BIGINT is reported correctly via DBMD.getColumns().

- - Fixed BUG#28689 - CallableStatement.executeBatch() doesn't work when
   connection property noAccessToProcedureBodies has been set to true.

The fix involves changing the behavior of noAccessToProcedureBodies,in
 that the driver will now report all paramters as IN paramters but
allow callers to call registerOutParameter() on them without throwing
   an exception.

- - Fixed BUG#28972 - DatabaseMetaData.getTypeInfo() for the types DECIMAL
 and NUMERIC will return a precision of 254 for server versions
older than 5.0.3, 64 for versions 5.0.3-5.0.5 and 65 for versions newer
than 5.0.5.

- - Fixed BUG#29106 - Connection checker for JBoss didn't use same method
parameters via reflection, causing connections to always seem bad.

- - Fixed BUG#29852 - Closing a load-balanced connection would cause a
  ClassCastException.

- - Fixed BUG#30550, executeBatch() would fail with an ArithmeticException
 and/or NullPointerException when the batch had zero members and
 rewriteBatchedStatements was set to true for the connection.

- - Fixed BUG#30664 - Note that this fix only works for MySQL server
 versions 5.0.25 and newer, since earlier versions didn't consistently
 return correct metadata for functions, and thus results from
subqueries and functions were indistinguishable from each other,
leading to type-related bugs.

- - Fixed BUG#30851, NPE with null column values when padCharsWithSpace
is set to true.

 - Fixed Bug#30892 setObject(int, Object, int, int) delegate in
PreparedStatmentWrapper delegates to wrong method

This is the release candidate of our implementation of the new JDBC-4.0 API, 
along with some new performance features.

This release candidate, as any other pre-production release, should not be 
installed on production level systems or systems with critical data. It is good 
practice to back up your data before installing any new version of software. 
Although MySQL has worked very hard to ensure a high level of quality, protect 
your data by making a backup as you would for any other software pre-production 
release.

MySQL Connector/J 5.1.3 includes the following new feature compared to 5.1.2:

* Setting useBlobToStoreUTF8OutsideBMP to true tells the driver to treat 
[MEDIUM/LONG]BLOB columns as [LONG]VARCHAR columns holding text encoded in 
UTF-8 that has characters outside the BMP (4-byte encodings), which MySQL 
server can't handle natively.

Set utf8OutsideBmpExcludedColumnNamePattern to a regex so that column names 
matching the given regex will still be treated as BLOBs The regex must follow 
the patterns used for the  java.util.regex package. The default is to exclude 
no columns, and include all columns.

Set utf8OutsideBmpIncludedColumnNamePattern to specify exclusion rules to 
utf8OutsideBmpExcludedColumnNamePattern. The regex must follow the patterns 
used for the java.util.regex package.

* New methods on com.mysql.jdbc.Statement: setLocalInfileInputStream() and 
getLocalInfileInputStream():

* setLocalInfileInputStream() sets an InputStream instance that will be 
used to send datato the MySQL server for a LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 
statement rather than a FileInputStream or URLInputStream that represents the 
path given as an argument to the statement.

  This stream will be read to completion upon execution of a LOAD DATA 
LOCAL INFILE statement, and will automatically be closed by the driver, so it 
needs to be reset before each call to execute*() that would cause the MySQL 
server to request data to fulfill the request for LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE.

  If this value is set to NULL, the driver will revert to using a 
FileInputStream or URLInputStream as required.

* getLocalInfileInputStream() returns the InputStream instance that will be 
used to send data in response to a LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE statement.

  This method returns NULL if no such stream has been set via 
setLocalInfileInputStream().

* The driver now connects with an initial character set of utf-8 solely for 
the purposes of authentication to allow usernames and database names in any 
character set to be used in the JDBC URL.

* Errors encountered during 
Statement/PreparedStatement/CallableStatement.executeBatch() when 
rewriteBatchStatements has been set to true now return 
BatchUpdateExceptions according to the setting of continueBatchOnError.

If continueBatchOnError is set to true, the update counts for the chunk 
that were sent as one unit will all be set to EXECUTE_FAILED, but the driver 
will attempt to process the remainder of the batch. You can determine which 
chunk failed by looking at the update counts returned in the 
BatchUpdateException.

If continueBatchOnError is set to false, the update counts returned will 
contain all updates up-to and including the failed chunk, with all counts for 
the failed chunk set to EXECUTE_FAILED.

Since MySQL doesn't return multiple error codes for multiple-statements, or for 
multi-value INSERT/REPLACE, it is the application's responsibility to handle 
determining which item(s) in the chunk actually failed.

* Statement.setQueryTimeout()s now affect the entire batch for batched 
statements, rather than the individual statements that make up the batch.

The following features are new, compared to the 5.0 series of Connector/J:

  * JDBC-4.0 ease-of-development features including auto-registration with the 
DriverManager via

Functionality added or changed
- --

Setting the configuration parameter useCursorFetch to true for MySQL-5.0+ 
enables the use of cursors that allow Connector/J to save memory by fetching 
result set rows in chunks (where the chunk size is set by calling 
setFetchSize() on a Statement or ResultSet) by using fully-materialized cursors 
on the server. The driver will will now automatically set useServerPrepStmts 
to true when useCursorFetch has been set to true, since the feature 
requires server-side prepared statements in order to function. 

Added configuration property useNanosForElapsedTime - for profiling/debugging 
functionality that measures elapsed time, should the driver try to use 
nanoseconds resolution if available (requires JDK = 1.5)?
 
Added configuration property slowQueryThresholdNanos - if 
useNanosForElapsedTime is set to true, and this property is set to a 
non-zero value the driver will use this threshold (in nanosecond units) to 
determine if a query was slow, instead of using millisecond units. 

Added configuration properties to allow tuning of TCP/IP socket parameters: 

  tcpNoDelay - Should the driver set SO_TCP_NODELAY (disabling the Nagle 
Algorithm, default true)? 

  tcpKeepAlive - Should the driver set SO_KEEPALIVE (default true)? 

  tcpRcvBuf - Should the driver set SO_RCV_BUF to the given value? The default 
value of '0', 
means use the platform default value for this property. 

  tcpSndBuf - Should the driver set SO_SND_BUF to the given value? The default 
value of '0', means use the platform default value for this property. 

  tcpTrafficClass - Should the driver set traffic class or type-of-service 
fields? See the documentation for java.net.Socket.setTrafficClass() for more 
information. 

Give more information in EOFExceptions thrown out of MysqlIO (how many bytes 
the driver expected to read, how many it actually read, say that communications 
with the server were unexpectedly lost). 

Setting useDynamicCharsetInfo to false now causes driver to use static 
lookups for collations as well (makes ResultSetMetadata.isCaseSensitive() much 
more efficient, which leads to performance increase for ColdFusion, which calls 
this method for every column on every table it sees, it appears). 

Driver detects when it is running in a ColdFusion MX server (tested with 
version 7), and uses the configuration bundle coldFusion, which sets 
useDynamicCharsetInfo to false (see previous entry), and sets 
useLocalSessionState and autoReconnect to true. 

Added new debugging functionality - Setting configuration property 
includeInnodbStatusInDeadlockExceptions to true will cause the driver to 
append the output of SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS to deadlock-related exceptions, 
which will enumerate the current locks held inside InnoDB.

PreparedStatement.getMetaData() for statements containing leading one-line 
comments is not returned correctly. As part of this fix, we also overhauled 
detection of DML for executeQuery() and SELECTs for executeUpdate() in plain 
and prepared statements to be aware of the same types of comments. (Bug#28469) 

Parser in client-side prepared statements eats character following '/' if it's 
not a multi-line comment. (Bug#28851)
 
Parser in client-side prepared statements runs to end of statement, rather than 
end-of-line for '#' comments. Also added support for '--' single-line comments. 
(Bug#28956) 

Don't send any file data in response to LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE if the feature 
is disabled at the client side. This is to prevent a malicious server or 
man-in-the-middle from asking the client for data that the client is not 
expecting. Thanks to Jan Kneschke for discovering the exploit and Andrey

- -
Performance Improvements
- - 

- - Fixed BUG#27655 - Connection.getTransactionIsolation() uses SHOW VARIABLES 
LIKE which is very inefficient on MySQL-5.0+
 
- - More intelligent initial packet sizes for the shared packets are used 
(512 bytes, rather than 16K), and initial packets used during handshake are now 
sized appropriately as to not require reallocation.

- - Added an experimental load-balanced connection designed for use with SQL 
nodes in a MySQL Cluster/NDB environment (This is not for master-slave 
replication. For that, we suggest you look at ReplicationConnection or 
lbpool).
  
If the JDBC URL starts with jdbc:mysql:loadbalance://host-1,host-2,...host-n, 
the driver will create an implementation of java.sql.Connection that load 
balances requests across a series of MySQL JDBC connections to the given hosts, 
where the balancing takes place after transaction commit.
 
Therefore, for this to work (at all), you must use transactions, even if only 
reading data.
 
Physical connections to the given hosts will not be created until needed.
  
The driver will invalidate connections that it detects have had communication 
errors when processing a request. A new connection to the problematic host will 
be attempted the next time it is selected by the load balancing algorithm.
  
There are two choices for load balancing algorithms, which may be specified by 
the loadBalanceStrategy JDBC URL configuration property:
  
  * random - the driver will pick a random host for each request. This 
tends to work better than round-robin, as the randomness will somewhat account 
for spreading loads where requests vary in response time, while round-robin can 
sometimes lead to overloaded nodes if there are variations in response times 
across the workload.

  * bestResponseTime - the driver will route the request to the host that 
had the best response time for the previous transaction.

- - When useLocalSessionState is set to true and connected to a MySQL-5.0 
or later server, the JDBC driver will now determine whether an actual commit 
or rollback statement needs to be sent to the database when 
Connection.commit() or Connection.rollback() is called.
  
This is especially helpful for high-load situations with connection pools that 
always call Connection.rollback() on connection check-in/check-out because it 
avoids a round-trip to the server.

- - Driver will now use INSERT INTO ... VALUES (DEFAULT) form of statement for 
updatable result sets for ResultSet.insertRow(), rather than pre-populating the 
insert row with values from DatabaseMetaData.getColumns() (which results in a 
SHOW FULL COLUMNS on the server for every result set). If an application 
requires access to the default values before insertRow() has been called, the 
JDBC URL should be configured with populateInsertRowWithDefaultValues set to 
true.
  
This fix specifically targets performance issues with ColdFusion and the fact 
that it seems to ask for updatable result sets and touch the insert row no 
matter what the application does with them.

- - Added configuration property useDynamicCharsetInfo. If set to false 
(the default), the driver will use a per-connection cache of character set 
information queried from the server when necessary, or when set to true, use 
a built-in static mapping that is more efficient, but isn't aware of  custom 
character sets or character sets implemented after the release of the JDBC 
driver.
  
  Note: this only affects the padCharsWithSpace configuration 
property and the  ResultSetMetaData.getColumnDisplayWidth() method.

JDBC-4.0 API. 

This alpha release, as any other pre-production release, should not be

good practice to back up your data before installing any new version of
software. Although MySQL has worked very hard to ensure a high level of
quality, protect your data by making a backup as you would for any other
software pre-production release.

MySQL Connector/J 5.1.0 includes the following new features:

  * JDBC-4.0 ease-of-development features including auto-registration with
the DriverManager via the service provider mechanism, standardized
Connection validity checks and categorized SQLExceptions based on
recoverability/retry-ability and class of the underlying error. 

  * JDBC-4.0 standardized unwrapping to interfaces that include vendor
extensions 

  * Support for JDBC-4.0 XML processing via JAXP interfaces to DOM, SAX and
StAX 

  * JDBC-4.0 support for setting per-connection client information (which
can be viewed in the comments section of a query via SHOW PROCESSLIST on a
MySQL server, or can be extended to support custom persistence of the
information via a public interface) 

  * Support for JDBC-4.0 NCHAR, NVARCHAR and NCLOB types 

  * The driver will automatically adjust the server session variable
net_write_timeout when it determines its been asked for a streaming
result, and resets it to the previous value when the result set has been
consumed. (The configuration property is named
netTimeoutForStreamingResults, with a unit of seconds, the value '0' means
the driver will not try and adjust this value).

This release also includes the following bug fixes that are also present in
Connector/J 5.0.6 (not yet released):

  * Fixed BUG#25545 - Client options not sent correctly when using SSL,
leading to stored procedures not being able to return results. Thanks to Don
Cohen for the bug report, testcase and patch.
  
  * Fixed BUG#26592 - PreparedStatement is not closed in
BlobFromLocator.getBytes().
  
  * Fixed BUG#25624 - Whitespace surrounding storage/size specifiers in
stored procedure parameters declaration causes NumberFormatException to be
thrown when calling stored procedure on JDK-1.5 or newer, as the Number
classes in JDK-1.5+ are whitespace intolerant.
  
  * Fixed BUG#26173 - When useCursorFetch=true, sometimes server would
return new, more exact metadata during the execution of the server-side
prepared statement that enables this functionality, which the driver ignored
(using the original metadata returned during prepare()), causing corrupt
reading of data due to type mismatch when the actual rows were returned.

  * Fixed BUG#26959 - comments in DDL of stored procedures/functions confuse
procedure parser, and thus metadata about them can not be created, leading
to inability to retrieve said metadata, or execute procedures that have
certain comments in them.
  
  * Give better error message when streaming result sets, and the
connection gets clobbered because of exceeding net_write_timeout on the
server. (which is basically what the error message says too).

  * Fixed BUG#26789 - fast date/time parsing doesn't take into account
00:00:00 as a legal value.
  
  * Fixed BUG#27317 - ResultSet.get*() with a column index  1 returns
misleading error message.

  * Fixed BUG#25517 - Statement.setMaxRows() is not effective on result sets
materialized from cursors.
  
  * New configuration property, enableQueryTimeouts (default true). When
enabled, query timeouts set via Statement.setQueryTimeout() use a shared
java.util.Timer instance for scheduling. Even if the timeout doesn't expire
before the query is processed, there will be memory used by the TimerTask
for the given timeout which won't be reclaimed until the time the timeout
would have expired

MySQL Connector/J 5.0.5 Has Been Released

Hash: SHA1

Hi,

MySQL Connector/J 5.0.5 a new version of the Type-IV pure-Java JDBC driver for 
MySQL has been released.

This is a bug fix release for the current production branch of Connector/J.

Version 5.0.5 is suitable for use with any MySQL version including MySQL-4.1, 
MySQL-5.0, MySQL-5.1 beta or the MySQL-5.2 Falcon Preview.

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.

Performance Improvements:

* Improved speed of datetime parsing for ResultSets that come from plain or 
non-server-side prepared statements. If any regressions are noticed, you can 
enable the old implementation with useFastDateParsing=false as a configuration 
parameter.

* Reverted back to internal character conversion routines for single-byte 
character sets, as the ones internal to the JVM are using much more CPU time 
than our internal implementation. 

* Changed cached result set metadata (when using cacheResultSetMetadata=true) 
to be cached per-connection rather than per-statement as previously 
implemented. 

* Use a java.util.TreeMap to map column names to ordinal indexes for 
ResultSet.findColumn() instead of a HashMap. This allows us to have 
case-insensitive lookups (required by the JDBC specification) without resorting 
to the many transient object instances needed to support this requirement with 
a normal HashMap with either case-adjusted keys, or case-insensitive keys. (In 
the worst case scenario for lookups of a 1000 column result set, TreeMaps are 
about half as fast wall-clock time as a HashMap, however in normal applications 
their use gives many orders of magnitude reduction in transient object instance 
creation which pays off later for CPU usage in garbage collection). 

* Avoid static synchronized code in JVM class libraries for dealing with 
default timezones. 

* Fixed cases where ServerPreparedStatements weren't using cached metadata when 
cacheResultSetMetadata=true was used. 

* When using cached metadata, skip field-level metadata packets coming from the 
server, rather than reading them and discarding them without creating 
com.mysql.jdbc.Field instances.

Functionality added or changed:

* Important change: Due to a number of issues with the server's implementation 
of server-side prepared statements, Connector/J 5.0.5 has disabled their use by 
default. 

The disabling of server-side prepared statements does not affect the operation 
of the connector in any way, except for the case where the connection was 
configured with useTimezone=true. If so, see the bugfix note for 
useSSPSCompatibleTimezoneShift.

To enable server-side prepared statements you must add the following 
configuration property to your connector string: 

useServerPrepStmts=true

The default value of this property is false (i.e. Connector/J does not use 
server-side prepared statements, and won't until they've matured). If you have 
an application that already works well with server-side prepared statements, it 
is reasonable to enable them. 

* The rewriteBatchedStatements feature can now be used with server-side 
prepared statements.

* Usage Advisor now detects empty results sets and does not report on columns 
not referenced in those empty sets. 

* Usage Advisor will now issue warnings for result sets with large numbers of 
rows. You can configure the trigger value by using the resultSetSizeThreshold 
parameter, which has a default value of 100.

* Added configuration property localSocketAddress,which is the hostname or IP 
address given to explicitly configure the interface that the driver will bind 
the client side of the TCP/IP connection to when connecting. 

* We've added a new configuration option treatUtilDateAsTimestamp, which is 
false by default, as (1) We already had specific behavior to treat 
java.util.Date as a java.sql.Timestamp because it's useful to many folks, and 
(2) that behavior will very likely be required for drivers JDBC-post-4.0. 

* Fixed logging of XA commands sent to server, it's now configurable via 
logXaCommands property (defaults to false). 

Bugs fixed:

* Fixed an issue where XADataSources couldn't be bound into JNDI, as the 
DataSourceFactory didn't know how to create instances of them. 

* Calling Statement.cancel() could result in a Null Pointer Exception (NPE). 
(Bug#24721) 

* Calendars and timezones are now lazily instantiated when required. 
(Bug#24351) 

* Client-side

-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.

MySQL Connector/J 5.0.3 Has Been Released

2006-07-27 Thread Mark Matthews
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

MySQL Connector/J 5.0.3 a new version of the Type-IV all-Java JDBC
driver for MySQL has been released.

This is the first generally-available, production release of Connector/J
5.0. Notice that Connector/J 3.1 has supported all MySQL-5.0 features
other than XA, but this is the first generally-available release that
synchronizes version numbers with the server (as well as adding
support for XA).

Version 5.0.3 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.)

Please notice that the download archives are larger than before as we're
now shipping the output of our JUnit release tests and resultant code
coverage in the docs/release-test-output subdirectory.

Features/changes of note in this release:

* Support for XA distributed transactions via
  com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlXADataSource which is an
  implementation of javax.sql.XADataSource.

  Notice that depending on whether or not your application server
  re-uses the same physical XAConnection for a given global transaction,
  you may have to set the datasource configuration parameter
  pinGlobalTxToPhysicalConnection to true so that the driver itself
  will maintain this mapping, which also allows the driver to emulate
  the JOIN clause to XA START, which the server currently does not
  support natively.

  Our current testing shows that this configuration parameter is
  necessary for BEA WebLogic and IBM WebSphere. JBoss has their own
  configuration parameter for this, track-connection-by-tx, see
http://docs.jboss.org/jbossas/jboss4guide/r5/html/ch7.chapt.html#ch7.xaconf.fig
  for more information).

  We also recommend that connection pools that will be backing
  XAConnections should be configured to test connections on
  reserve/checkout and not let connections stay idle for long periods of
  time (ideally not at all), due to the current limitations with XA
  support in the server as listed here:

  http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/xa-restrictions.html

* Loosened synchronization to solve a number of deadlock issues in
  BUG#18719, BUG#18367, BUG#17709 and BUG#15067. The new strategy
  basically makes Connection instances threadsafe and thus shareable
  across threads, and anything else threadsafe, but not necessarily
  shareable across threads due to JDBC API interactions that can cause
  non-obvious behavior and/or deadlock scenarios to occur since
  the JDBC API is not designed to be used from multiple threads at once.

  Therefore, unless external synchronization is provided, clients should
  not allow multiple threads to share a given statement or result set.

  Examples of issues with the API itself not being multi-thread suitable
  include, but are not limited to race conditions between modifiers and
  execution and retrieval methods on statements and result sets that are
  not synchronizable such as ResultSet.get*() and traversal methods, or
  Statement.execute*() closing result sets without effectively making
  the driver itself serialized across the board.

  These changes should not have any effect on normal J(2)EE use cases
  where only one thread ever uses a connection instance and the objects
  created by it.

* Implementation of Statement.cancel() and Statement.setQueryTimeout().
  Both methods require MySQL-5.0.0 or newer server, require a separate
  connection to issue the KILL QUERY command, and in the case of
  setQueryTimeout() the driver will create a separate thread should the
  timer to cancel the query fire to actually login to the server and
  cancel the statement.

* Added support for Connector/MXJ integration via url subprotocol
  jdbc:mysql:mxj://.

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

  if underlying connection has been closed due to server failure.

- Added configuration option noAccessToProcedureBodies which will

  CallableStatements when the user does not have access to procedure

driver for MySQL has been released. This is the last planned beta
release of this branch of the driver. Please notice that version 5.0.1
wasn't released due to a last-minute packaging error.

Version 5.0.2 is a release for the development branch that is

- From the changelog (this release includes changes and fixes from
versions 3.1.13 and 3.1.14):

07-11-06 - Version 5.0.2-beta

- Fixed BUG#17401 - Can't use XAConnection for local transactions
  when no global transaction is in progress.

- Fixed BUG#18086 - Driver fails on non-ASCII platforms. The driver
  was assuming that the platform character set would be a superset
  of MySQL's latin1 when doing the handshake for authentication,
  and when reading error messages. We now use Cp1252 for all strings
  sent to the server during the handshake phase, and a hard-coded
  mapping
  of the language server variable to the character set that
  is used for error messages.

- Fixed BUG#19169 - ConnectionProperties (and thus some
  subclasses) are not serializable, even though some J2EE containers
  expect them to be.

- Fixed BUG#20242 - MysqlValidConnectionChecker for JBoss doesn't
  work with MySQLXADataSources.

- Better caching of character set converters (per-connection)
  to remove a bottleneck for multibyte character sets.

- Added connection/datasource property
  pinGlobalTxToPhysicalConnection (defaults to false). When set
  to true, when using XAConnections, the driver ensures that
  operations on a given XID are always routed to the same physical
  connection. This allows the XAConnection to support
  XA START ... JOIN after XA END has been called, and is also a
  workaround for transaction managers that don't maintain thread
  affinity for a global transaction (most either always maintain
  thread affinity, or have it as a configuration option).

- MysqlXaConnection.recover(int flags) now allows combinations of
  XAResource.TMSTARTRSCAN and TMENDRSCAN. To simulate the scanning
  nature of the interface, we return all prepared XIDs for
  TMSTARTRSCAN, and no new XIDs for calls with TMNOFLAGS, or
  TMENDRSCAN when not in combination with TMSTARTRSCAN. This change
  was made for API compliance, as well as integration with IBM
  WebSphere's transaction manager.

- Fixed BUG#14938 - Unable to initialize character set mapping
  tables.

  Removed reliance on .properties files to hold this information, as
  it turns out to be too problematic to code around class loader
  hierarchies that change depending on how an application is
  deployed. Moved information back into the CharsetMapping class.

- Fixed BUG#16841 - updatable result set doesn't return
  AUTO_INCREMENT values for insertRow() when multiple column primary
  keys are used. (the driver was checking for the existence of
  single-column primary keys and an autoincrement value  0 instead
  of a straightforward isAutoIncrement() check).

- Fixed BUG#17099 - Statement.getGeneratedKeys() throws
  NullPointerException when no query has been processed.

- Fixed BUG#13469 - Driver tries to call methods that don't exist on
  older and newer versions of Log4j. The fix is not trying to
  auto-detect presense of log4j, too many different incompatible
  versions out there in the wild to do this reliably.

  If you relied on autodetection before, you will need to add
  logger=com.mysql.jdbc.log.Log4JLogger to your JDBC URL to enable
  Log4J usage, or alternatively use the new CommonsLogger class to
  take care of this.

- Added support for Apache Commons logging, use
  com.mysql.jdbc.log.CommonsLogger as the value for the logger
  configuration property.

- LogFactory now prepends com.mysql.jdbc.log to log class name if
  it can't be found as-specified. This allows you to use short
  names for the built-in log factories, for example
  logger=CommonsLogger instead of
  logger=com.mysql.jdbc.log.CommonsLogger.

- Fixed BUG#15570 - ReplicationConnection incorrectly copies state,
  doesn't transfer connection context correctly when transitioning
  between the same read-only states.

- Fixed BUG#18041 - Server-side prepared statements don't cause
  truncation exceptions to be thrown when truncation happens.

- Added performance feature, re-writing of batched executes for
  Statement.executeBatch() (for all DML statements) and
  PreparedStatement.executeBatch() (for INSERTs with VALUE clauses
  only). Enable by using rewriteBatchedStatements=true in your
  JDBC URL.

- Fixed BUG#17898 - registerOutParameter not working when some
  parameters pre-populated. Still waiting for feedback from JDBC
  experts group to determine what correct parameter count from
  getMetaData() should be, however.

- Fixed BUG#17587 - clearParameters() on a closed prepared statement
  causes NPE.

- Map latin1 on MySQL server to CP1252 for MySQL  4.1.0.

- Added additional accessor and mutator methods on
  ConnectionProperties so that DataSource users can use same naming
  as regular URL properties.

- Fixed BUG#18740 - Data truncation and getWarnings() only returns
  last warning in set.

- Improved performance of retrieving BigDecimal, Time, Timestamp and
  Date values from server-side prepared statements by creating fewer
  short-lived instances of Strings when the native type is not an
  exact match for the requested type. Fixes BUG#18496 for
  BigDecimals.

MySQL Connector/J 5.0.0 Beta Has Been Released

2006-01-03 Thread Mark Matthews
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

MySQL Connector/J 5.0.0 Beta, a new version of the Type-IV all-Java JDBC
driver for MySQL has been released. You will notice that there is a new
version numbering scheme for this release that more closely aligns with
the server version that the JDBC driver is intended to be used with. You
will soon see new base version numbers for all new connectivity
libraries released by MySQL, including Connector/Net, Connector/ODBC and
Connector/MXJ. Hopefully this will help alleviate the common question of
Which driver version should I use with my MySQL server?.

Version 5.0.0 is a development release based on code from the stable
tree. It is essentially Connector/J 3.1.13 with support for XA back
ported from the Connector/J 3.2 branch, as well as some internal
refactorings to support JDBC-4.0 features.

New features that are included:

* Support for Connector/MXJ integration via url subprotocol
jdbc:mysql:mxj://.

* XA Distributed Transactions via the
com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlXADataSource implementation of
javax.sql.XADataSource.

* Statement.cancel() and Statement.setQueryTimeout().

Connector/J 5.0.0 is suitable for use with any MySQL version including
MySQL-4.1, MySQL-5.0 or MySQL-5.1.

We expect that Connector/J 5.0 will soon stabilize, as the majority of
the codebase is from Connector/J 3.1 which is a generally available
release, with largely non-disruptive new functionality added (namely XA)
to the 5.0 codebase (which is also why this is a beta release out of
the gate).

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.)

-Mark


- From the changelog:

12-23-05 - Version 5.0.0-beta

- - XADataSource implemented (ported from 3.2 branch which won't be
released as a product). Use
com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlXADataSource as your datasource
class name in your application server to utilize XA transactions  in
MySQL-5.0.10 and newer.

- - PreparedStatement.setString() didn't work correctly when sql_mode on
server contained NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES, and no characters that needed
escaping were present in the string.

- - Attempt detection of the MySQL type BINARY (it's an alias, so this
isn't always reliable), and use the java.sql.Types.BINARY type mapping
for it.

- - Moved -bin-g.jar file into separate debug subdirectory to avoid
confusion.

- - Don't allow .setAutoCommit(true), or .commit() or .rollback() on an
XA-managed connection as-per the JDBC specification.

- - If the connection useTimezone is set to true, then also respect
timezone conversions in escape-processed string literals (e.g. {ts
...} and {t ...}).

- - Return original column name for RSMD.getColumnName() if the column was
aliased, alias name for .getColumnLabel() (if aliased), and original
table name for .getTableName(). Note this only works for MySQL-4.1 and
newer, as older servers don't make this information available to clients.

- - Setting useJDBCCompliantTimezoneShift=true (it's not the default)
causes the driver to use GMT for _all_ TIMESTAMP/DATETIME timezones, and
the current VM timezone for any other type that refers to timezones.
This feature can not be used when useTimezone=true to convert between
server and client timezones.

- - Add one level of indirection of internal representation of
CallableStatement parameter metadata to avoid class not found issues on
JDK-1.3 for ParameterMetadata interface (which doesn't exist prior to
JDBC-3.0).

- - Added unit tests for XADatasource, as well as friendlier exceptions
for XA failures compared to the stock XAException (which has no messages).

- - Fixed BUG#14279 - Idle timeouts cause XAConnections to whine about
rolling themselves back

- - Added support for Connector/MXJ integration via url subprotocol
jdbc:mysql:mxj://.

- - Removed Java5-specific calls to BigDecimal constructor (when result

- - Moved all SQLException creation to a factory method in SQLError,
groundwork for JDBC-4.0 SQLState class-based exceptions.

- - Added service-provider entry to META-INF/services/java.sql.Driver for
JDBC-4.0 support.

- - Return [VAR]BINARY for RSMD.getColumnTypeName() when that is
actually the type, and it can be distinguished (MySQL-4.1 and newer).

Hash: SHA1

Hi,

MySQL Connector/J 3.1.9, a new version of the Type-IV all-Java JDBC
driver for MySQL has been released.

Version 3.1.9 is the latest production release of the 3.1 series that is
suitable for use with all versions of MySQL, including MySQL-4.1 or
MySQL-5.0. Connector/J 3.1.9 is required if you want to use server-side
prepared statements with MySQL-4.1.2 or newer, or CallableStatements
with MySQL-5.0.

Sources and binaries are now available from the Connector/J
download pages at http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/3.1.html
as well as 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.)

If you are upgrading from Connector/J 3.0, or are upgrading from
MySQL-4.0 to MySQL-4.1 or 5.0, please make sure to check out the
'Upgrades' section in the documentation that comes with the driver, or
available on the web site at

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector/j/en/cj-upgrading-3-0-to-3-1.html

-Mark

- From the changelog:

06-22-05 - Version 3.1.9-stable

- Overhaul of character set configuration, everything now
  lives in a properties file.

- Driver now correctly uses CP932 if available on the server
  for Windows-31J, CP932 and MS932 java encoding names,
  otherwise it resorts to SJIS, which is only a close
  approximation. Currently only MySQL-5.0.3 and newer (and
  MySQL-4.1.12 or .13, depending on when the character set
  gets backported) can reliably support any variant of CP932.

- Fixed BUG#9064 - com.mysql.jdbc.PreparedStatement.ParseInfo
  does unnecessary call to toCharArray().

- Fixed Bug#10144 - Memory leak in ServerPreparedStatement if
  serverPrepare() fails.

- Actually write manifest file to correct place so it ends up
  in the binary jar file.

- Added createDatabaseIfNotExist property (default is false),
  which will cause the driver to ask the server to create the
  database specified in the URL if it doesn't exist. You must have
  the appropriate privileges for database creation for this to
  work.

- Fixed BUG#10156 - Unsigned SMALLINT treated as signed for
ResultSet.getInt(), fixed all cases for UNSIGNED integer values and
server-side prepared statements, as well as ResultSet.getObject() for
UNSIGNED TINYINT.

- Fixed BUG#10155, double quotes not recognized when parsing
  client-side prepared statements.

- Made enableStreamingResults() visible on
  com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.StatementWrapper.

- Made ServerPreparedStatement.asSql() work correctly so auto-explain
functionality would work with server-side prepared statements.

- Made JDBC2-compliant wrappers public in order to allow access to
vendor extensions.

- Cleaned up logging of profiler events, moved code to dump a profiler
event as a string to com.mysql.jdbc.log.LogUtils so that third
parties can use it.

- DatabaseMetaData.supportsMultipleOpenResults() now returns true. The
driver has supported this for some time, DBMD just missed that fact.

- Fixed BUG#10310 - Driver doesn't support {?=CALL(...)} for calling
stored functions. This involved adding support for function retrieval to
DatabaseMetaData.getProcedures() and getProcedureColumns() as well.

- Fixed BUG#10485, SQLException thrown when retrieving YEAR(2)
with ResultSet.getString(). The driver will now always treat YEAR types
as java.sql.Dates and return the correct values for getString().
Alternatively, the yearIsDateType connection property can be set to
false and the values will be treated as SHORTs.

- The datatype returned for TINYINT(1) columns when
tinyInt1isBit=true (the default) can be switched between Types.BOOLEAN
and Types.BIT using the new configuration property
transformedBitIsBoolean, which defaults to false. If set to false
(the default), DatabaseMetaData.getColumns() and
ResultSetMetaData.getColumnType() will return Types.BOOLEAN for
TINYINT(1) columns. If true, Types.BOOLEAN will be returned instead.
Irregardless of this configuration property, if tinyInt1isBit is
enabled, columns with the type TINYINT(1) will be returned as
java.lang.Boolean instances from  ResultSet.getObject(..), and
ResultSetMetaData.getColumnClassName() will return java.lang.Boolean.

- Fixed BUG#10496 - SQLException is thrown when using property
characterSetResults with cp932 or eucjpms.

- Reorganized directory layout, sources now in src folder,
don't pollute parent directory when building, now output goes to
./build, distribution goes to ./dist.

- Added

-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

- From the changelog:

02-18-05 - Version 3.1.7-stable

- Fixed BUG#7686, Timestamp key column data needed _binary'
  stripped for UpdatableResultSet.refreshRow().

- Fixed BUG#7715 - Timestamps converted incorrectly to strings
  with Server-side prepared statements and updatable result sets.

- Detect new sql_mode variable in string form (it used to be
  integer) and adjust quoting method for strings appropriately.

- Added 'holdResultsOpenOverStatementClose' property (default is
  false), that keeps result sets open over statement.close() or new
  execution on same statement (suggested by Kevin Burton).

- Fixed BUG#7952 -- Infinite recursion when 'falling back' to master
  in failover configuration.

- Disable multi-statements (if enabled) for MySQL-4.1 versions prior
  to version 4.1.10 if the query cache is enabled, as the server
  returns wrong results in this configuration.

- Fixed duplicated code in configureClientCharset() that prevented
  useOldUTF8Behavior=true from working properly.

- Removed 'dontUnpackBinaryResults' functionality, the driver now
  always stores results from server-side prepared statements as-is
  from the server and unpacks them on demand.

- Fixed BUG#8096 where emulated locators corrupt binary data
  when using server-side prepared statements.

- Fixed synchronization issue with
  ServerPreparedStatement.serverPrepare() that could cause
  deadlocks/crashes if connection was shared between threads.

- By default, the driver now scans SQL you are preparing via all
  variants of Connection.prepareStatement() to determine if it is a
  supported type of statement to prepare on the server side, and if
  it is not supported by the server, it instead prepares it as a
  client-side emulated prepared statement (BUG#4718). You can
  disable this by passing 'emulateUnsupportedPstmts=false' in your
  JDBC URL.

- Remove _binary introducer from parameters used as in/out
  parameters in CallableStatement.

- Always return byte[]s for output parameters registered as *BINARY.

- Send correct value for 'boolean' true to server for
  PreparedStatement.setObject(n, true, Types.BIT).

- Fixed bug with Connection not caching statements from
  prepareStatement() when the statement wasn't a server-side
  prepared statement.

- Choose correct 'direction' to apply time adjustments when both
  client and server are in GMT timezone when using
  ResultSet.get(..., cal) and PreparedStatement.set(, cal).

- Added 'dontTrackOpenResources' option (default is false, to be
  JDBC compliant), which helps with memory use for non-well-behaved
  apps (i.e applications which don't close Statements when they
  should).

- Fixed BUG#8428 - ResultSet.getString() doesn't maintain format
  stored on server, bug fix only enabled when 'noDatetimeStringSync'
  property is set to 'true' (the default is 'false').

- Fixed NPE in ResultSet.realClose() when using usage advisor and
  result set was already closed.

- Fixed BUG#8487 - PreparedStatements not creating streaming result
  sets.

- Don't pass NULL to String.valueOf() in
  ResultSet.getNativeConvertToString(), as it stringifies it (i.e.
  returns null), which is not correct for the method in question.

- Fixed BUG#8484 - ResultSet.getBigDecimal() throws exception
  when rounding would need to occur to set scale. The driver now
  chooses a rounding mode of 'half up' if non-rounding
  BigDecimal.setScale() fails.

- Added 'useLocalSessionState' configuration property, when set to
  'true' the JDBC driver trusts that the application is well-behaved
  and only sets autocommit and transaction isolation levels using
  the methods

-Mark

- From the changelog:

09-04-04 - Version 3.0.15-ga

- - Fixed BUG#4010 - StringUtils.escapeEasternUnicodeByteStream is still
broken for GBK

- - Fixed BUG#4334 - Failover for autoReconnect not using port #'s for any
hosts, and not retrying all hosts. (WARN: This required a change to
the SocketFactory connect() method signature, which is now

  public Socket connect(String host, int portNumber, Properties props)

therefore any third-party socket factories will have to be changed
to support this signature.

- - Logical connections created by MysqlConnectionPoolDataSource will
now issue a rollback() when they are closed and sent back to the pool.

If your application server/connection pool already does this for you,
you can set the 'rollbackOnPooledClose' property to false to avoid the
overhead of an extra rollback().

- - Removed redundant calls to checkRowPos() in ResultSet.

- - Fixed BUG#4742, 'DOUBLE' mapped twice in DBMD.getTypeInfo().

- - Added FLOSS license exemption.

- - Fixed BUG#4808, calling .close() twice on a PooledConnection causes NPE.

- - Fixed BUG#4138 and BUG#4860, DBMD.getColumns() returns incorrect JDBC
type for unsigned columns. This affects type mappings for all numeric
types in the RSMD.getColumnType() and RSMD.getColumnTypeNames() methods
as well, to ensure that 'like' types from DBMD.getColumns() match up
with what RSMD.getColumnType() and getColumnTypeNames() return.

- - 'Production' - 'GA' in naming scheme of distributions.

- - Fix for BUG#4880, RSMD.getPrecision() returning 0 for non-numeric
types (should return max length in chars for non-binary types, max
length in bytes for binary types). This fix also fixes mapping of
RSMD.getColumnType() and RSMD.getColumnTypeName() for the BLOB types
based on the length sent from the server (the server doesn't distinguish
between TINYBLOB, BLOB, MEDIUMBLOB or LONGBLOB at the network protocol
level).

- - Fixed BUG#5022 - ResultSet should release Field[] instance in .close().

- - Fixed BUG#5069 -- ResultSet.getMetaData() should not return
incorrectly-initialized metadata if the result set has been
closed, but should instead throw a SQLException. Also fixed for
getRow() and getWarnings() and traversal methods by calling
checkClosed() before operating on instance-level fields that are
nullified during .close().

- - Parse new timezone variables from 4.1.x servers.

- - Use _binary introducer for PreparedStatement.setBytes() and
set*Stream() when connected to MySQL-4.1.x or newer to avoid
misinterpretation during character conversion.

Hi,

MySQL Connector/J 3.1.4, a new version of the Type-IV all-Java JDBC
driver for MySQL has been released.

Version 3.1.4 is the second (and last planned before GAMMA) BETA release
of the 3.1 series that is suitable for use with either MySQL-4.1 or
MySQL-5.0 (and is required when using server-side prepared statements on
MySQL-4.1.2 or newer).

It is now available in source and binary form from the Connector/J

Please take the time to file any bugs you might encounter (hopefully
none!) at http://bugs.mysql.com/ ... We're particularly interested in
any issues you might have with this release and MySQL-4.1.4 with respect
to server-side prepared statements in 4.1, stored procedures in 5.0 and
access to VIEW-level metadata in 5.0.

09-04-04 - Version 3.1.4-beta

- - Fixed BUG#4510 - connector/j 3.1.3 beta does not handle integers
correctly (caused by changes to support unsigned reads in
Buffer.readInt() - Buffer.readShort()).

- - Added support in DatabaseMetaData.getTables() and getTableTypes()
for VIEWs which are now available in MySQL server version 5.0.x.

- - Fixed BUG#4642 -- ServerPreparedStatement.execute*() sometimes
threw ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException when unpacking field metadata.

- - Optimized integer number parsing, enable 'old' slower integer parsing
using JDK classes via 'useFastIntParsing=false' property.

- - Added 'useOnlyServerErrorMessages' property, which causes message text
in exceptions generated by the server to only contain the text sent by
the server (as opposed to the SQLState's 'standard' description,
followed by the server's error message). This property is set to 'true'
by default.

- - Fixed BUG#4689 - ResultSet.wasNull() does not work for primatives if a
previous null was returned.

- - Track packet sequence numbers if enablePacketDebug=true, and throw an
exception if packets received out-of-order.

- - Fixed BUG#4482, ResultSet.getObject() returns wrong type for strings
when using prepared statements.

- - Calling MysqlPooledConnection.close() twice (even though an
application error), caused NPE. Fixed.

- - Fixed BUG#5012 -- ServerPreparedStatements dealing with return of
DECIMAL type don't work.

- - Fixed BUG#5032 -- ResultSet.getObject() doesn't return type Boolean
for pseudo-bit types from prepared statements on 4.1.x (shortcut for
avoiding extra type conversion when using binary-encoded
result sets obscurred test in getObject() for 'pseudo' bit type)

- - You can now use URLs in 'LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE' statements, and the
driver will use Java's built-in handlers for retreiving the data and
sending it to the server. This feature is not enabled by default,
you must set the 'allowUrlInLocalInfile' connection property to 'true'.

- - The driver is more strict about truncation of numerics on
ResultSet.get*(), and will throw a SQLException when truncation is
detected. You can disable this by setting 'jdbcCompliantTruncation' to
false (it is enabled by default, as this functionality is required
for JDBC compliance).

- - Added three ways to deal with all-zero datetimes when reading them
from a ResultSet, 'exception' (the default), which throws a SQLException
with a SQLState of 'S1009', 'convertToNull', which returns NULL instead
of the date, and 'round', which rounds the date to the nearest closest
value which is '0001-01-01'.

- - Fixed ServerPreparedStatement to read prepared statement metadata off
the wire, even though it's currently a placeholder instead of using
MysqlIO.clearInputStream() which didn't work at various times because
data wasn't available to read from the server yet. This fixes sporadic
errors users were having with ServerPreparedStatements throwing
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundExceptions.

- - Use com.mysql.jdbc.Message's classloader when loading resource bundle,
should fix sporadic issues when the caller's classloader can't locate
the resource bundle.

Re: Default username and pw for MySQL Connector/J

2004-08-04 Thread Mark Matthews
 Hi everyone,

 Is there a standard way to specify a default user name and password for
 the java driver? For example, will it recognize .my.cnf like most mysql
 clinets do?

 Thanks,

 Sergei


Sergei,

No there is not. It must be passed in on the command line. Of course your
application(s) could always read a 'standard' configuration properties
file and add that.

Connector/J can't read my.cnf because in many (most) cases, security
restrictions prevent JDBC drivers from reading or creating files.

MySQL Connector/J 3.1.3 BETA Has Been Released

2004-07-08 Thread Mark Matthews
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
Hi,
MySQL Connector/J 3.1.3, a new version of the Type-IV all-Java JDBC
driver for MySQL has been released.
Version 3.1.3 is the first BETA release of the 3.1 series that is
suitable for use with either MySQL-4.1 or MySQL-5.0 (and is required
when using server-side prepared statements on MySQL-4.1.2 or newer).
It is now available in source and binary form from the Connector/J
download pages at http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/3.1.html
as well as 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.)
Please note that currently server-side prepared statements are
automatically disabled in this release when the driver is connecting to
MySQL-5.0.0 or MySQL-5.0.1, as the current prepared statement code from
the 4.1 branch (which contains network protocol-level changes) has yet
to be merged into the 5.0 source tree.
The focus of the next few releases of Connector/J 3.1 is on code cleanup
and performance improvements (although micro-performance benchmarks are
looking pretty good right now, approx 25-30% faster than the 3.0 series
due mostly to shortening call stack length and some optimizations in
re-using expensive to allocate objects).
Have fun with this release!
Please take the time to file any bugs you might encounter (hopefully
none!) at http://bugs.mysql.com/ ... We're particularly interested in
any issues you might have with this release and MySQL-4.1.3 with respect
to server-side prepared statements.
Regards,
-Mark
~From the changelog:
07-07-04 - Version 3.1.3-beta
- - Mangle output parameter names for CallableStatements so they
will not clash with user variable names.
- - Added support for INOUT parameters in CallableStatements.
- - Fix for BUG#4119, null bitmask sent for server-side prepared
statements was incorrect.
- - Use SQL Standard SQL states by default, unless 'useSqlStateCodes'
property is set to 'false'.
- - Added packet debuging code (see the 'enablePacketDebug' property
documentation).
- - Added constants for MySQL error numbers (publicly-accessible, see
com.mysql.jdbc.MysqlErrorNumbers), and the ability to generate the
mappings of vendor error codes to SQLStates that the driver uses (for
documentation purposes).
- - Externalized more messages (on-going effort).
- - Fix for BUG#4311 - Error in retrieval of mediumint column with
prepared statements and binary protocol.
- - Support new timezone variables in MySQL-4.1.3 when 'useTimezone=true'
- - Support for unsigned numerics as return types from prepared statements.
This also causes a change in ResultSet.getObject() for the 'bigint
unsigned' type, which used to return BigDecimal instances, it now
returns instances of java.lang.BigInteger.

- From the changelog:

06-09-04 - Version 3.1.2-alpha

- Fixed stored procedure parameter parsing info when size was
  specified for a parameter (i.e. char(), varchar()).

- Enabled callable statement caching via 'cacheCallableStmts'
  property.

- Fixed case when no output parameters specified for a
  stored procedure caused a bogus query to be issued
  to retrieve out parameters, leading to a syntax error
  from the server.

- Fixed case when no parameters could cause a NullPointerException
  in CallableStatement.setOutputParameters().

- Removed wrapping of exceptions in MysqlIO.changeUser().

- Fixed sending of split packets for large queries, enabled nio
  ability to send large packets as well.

- Added .toString() functionality to ServerPreparedStatement,
  which should help if you're trying to debug a query that is
  a prepared statement (it shows SQL as the server would process).

- Added 'gatherPerformanceMetrics' property, along with properties
  to control when/where this info gets logged (see docs for more
  info).

- ServerPreparedStatements weren't actually de-allocating
  server-side resources when .close() was called.

- Added 'logSlowQueries' property, along with property
  'slowQueriesThresholdMillis' to control when a query should
  be considered 'slow'.

- Correctly map output parameters to position given in
  prepareCall() vs. order implied during registerOutParameter() -
  fixes BUG#3146.

- Correctly detect initial character set for servers = 4.1.0

- Cleaned up detection of server properties.

- Support placeholder for parameter metadata for server = 4.1.2

- Fix for BUG#3539 getProcedures() does not return any procedures in
  result set

- Fix for BUG#3540 getProcedureColumns() doesn't work with wildcards
  for procedure name

- Fixed BUG#3520 -- DBMD.getSQLStateType() returns incorrect value.

- Added 'connectionCollation' property to cause driver to issue
  'set collation_connection=...' query on connection init if default
  collation for given charset is not appropriate.

- Fixed DatabaseMetaData.getProcedures() when run on MySQL-5.0.0
(output of
'show procedure status' changed between 5.0.1 and 5.0.0.

- Fixed BUG#3804 -- getWarnings() returns SQLWarning instead of
DataTruncation

- Don't enable server-side prepared statements for server version
5.0.0 or 5.0.1, as they aren't compatible with the '4.1.2+' style that
the driver uses (the driver expects information to come back that isn't
there, so it hangs).

  setBinary/CharacterStream() (BUG#2670).
- Dynamically configure character set mappings for field-level
  character sets on MySQL-4.1.0 and newer using 'SHOW COLLATION'
  when connecting.
- Map 'binary' character set to 'US-ASCII' to support DATETIME
  charset recognition for servers = 4.1.2
- Use 'SET character_set_results during initialization to allow any
  charset to be returned to the driver for result sets.
- Use charsetnr returned during connect to encode queries before

- Add helper methods to ResultSetMetaData (getColumnCharacterEncoding()
  and getColumnCharacterSet()) to allow end-users to see what
charset the driver thinks it should be using for the column.
- Only set character_set_results for MySQL = 4.1.0.
- Fixed BUG#3511, StringUtils.escapeSJISByteStream() not covering
all eastern double-byte charsets correctly.
- Renamed StringUtils.escapeSJISByteStream() to more appropriate
  escapeEasternUnicodeByteStream().
- Fixed BUG#3554 - Not specifying database in URL caused
MalformedURL exception.

be run from the command line outside of Ant or Eclipse).
- Fixed BUG#3557 - UpdatableResultSet not picking up default values
  for moveToInsertRow().
- Fixed BUG#3570 - inconsistent reporting of column type. The server
  still doesn't return all types for *BLOBs *TEXT correctly, so the
  driver won't return those correctly.
- Fixed BUG#3520 -- DBMD.getSQLStateType() returns incorrect value.
- Fixed regression in PreparedStatement.setString() and eastern
character encodings.

MySQL Connector/J 3.1.1 ALPHA Has Been Released

2004-02-13 Thread Mark Matthews
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

MySQL Connector/J 3.1.1, a new version of the Type-IV all-Java JDBC
driver for MySQL has been released.

Version 3.1.1 is a new feature release for the ALPHA tree that is
suitable for use with either MySQL-4.1 or MySQL-5.0.

It is now available in source and binary form from the Connector/J
download pages at http://www.mysql.com/downloads/api-jdbc-stable.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.)

The major new feature of this release aside from performance
optimizations and bug fixes from 3.1.0 is support for the stored
procedures in MySQL-5.0 via the java.sql.CallableStatement interface,
and the inclusion of the docbook-based documentation that has been
available on www.mysql.com for awhile.

The new documentation is located in the 'doc' subdirectory of the
distribution.

For those of you who want to try out the stored procedures support, I
suggest that you see the documentation
(http://www.mysql.com/documentation/connector-j/index.html#id2803184) as
well as the JDBC spec and APIDOCs for java.sql.CallableStatement.

You might also be interested in hearing me talk about the new features
in Connector/J 3.1 as well as other Java and MySQL-related topics in
person at the MySQL Users' Conference, which will be held in Orlando,
April 14th-16th, 2004 (see http://www.mysql.com/events/uc2004/ for more
information).

Have fun with this release, and looking forward to meeting you in
Orlando if you can make it!

-Mark

- From the changelog:

02-14-04 - Version 3.1.1-alpha

- Fixed bug with UpdatableResultSets not using client-side
  prepared statements.

- Fixed character encoding issues when converting bytes to
  ASCII when MySQL doesn't provide the character set, and
  the JVM is set to a multibyte encoding (usually affecting
  retrieval of numeric values).

- Unpack 'unknown' data types from server prepared statements
  as Strings.

- Implemented long data (Blobs, Clobs, InputStreams, Readers)
  for server prepared statements.

- Implemented Statement.getWarnings() for MySQL-4.1 and newer
  (using 'SHOW WARNINGS').

- Default result set type changed to TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY
  (JDBC compliance).
- Centralized setting of result set type and concurrency.

- Re-factored how connection properties are set and exposed
  as DriverPropertyInfo as well as Connection and DataSource
  properties.

- Support for NIO. Use 'useNIO=true' on platforms that support
  NIO.

- Support for SAVEPOINTs (MySQL = 4.0.14 or 4.1.1).

- Support for mysql_change_user()...See the changeUser() method
  in com.mysql.jdbc.Connection.

- Reduced number of methods called in average query to be more
  efficient.

- Prepared Statements will be re-prepared on auto-reconnect. Any
  errors encountered are postponed until first attempt to re-execute
  the re-prepared statement.

- Ensure that warnings are cleared before executing queries
  on prepared statements, as-per JDBC spec (now that we support
  warnings).

- Support 'old' profileSql capitalization in ConnectionProperties.
  This property is deprecated, you should use 'profileSQL' if
  possible.

- Optimized Buffer.readLenByteArray() to return shared empty byte
  array when length is 0.

- Allow contents of PreparedStatement.setBlob() to be retained
  between calls to .execute*().

- Deal with 0-length tokens in EscapeProcessor (caused by callable
  statement escape syntax).

- Check for closed connection on delete/update/insert row operations
  in UpdatableResultSet.

- Fix support for table aliases when checking for all primary keys
  in UpdatableResultSet.

- Removed useFastDates connection property.

- Correctly initialize datasource properties from JNDI Refs,
  including explicitly specified URLs.

- DatabaseMetaData now reports supportsStoredProcedures() for
  MySQL versions = 5.0.0

- Fixed stack overflow in Connection.prepareCall() (bad merge).

- Fixed IllegalAccessError to Calendar.getTimeInMillis() in
  DateTimeValue (for JDK  1.4).

- Fix for BUG#1673, where DatabaseMetaData.getColumns() is not
  returning correct column ordinal info for non '%' column name
  patterns.

- Merged fix of datatype mapping from MySQL type 'FLOAT' to
  java.sql.Types.REAL from 3.0 branch.

- Detect collation of column for RSMD.isCaseSensitive().

- Fixed sending of queries  16M.

- Added named and indexed input/output parameter support to

Hash: SHA1

Hi,

MySQL Connector/J 3.0.10, a new version of the Type-IV all-Java JDBC
driver for MySQL has been released.

Version 3.0.10 is a bugfix/performance release for the STABLE tree.

It is now available in source and binary form from the Connector/J
download pages at http://www.mysql.com/downloads/api-jdbc-stable.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.


- From the changelog:

01-13-04 - Version 3.0.10-stable
- Don't count quoted id's when inside a 'string' in
PreparedStatement parsing (fix for BUG#1511).
- 'Friendlier' exception message for PacketTooLargeException
   (BUG#1534).
- Backported fix for aliased tables and UpdatableResultSets in
  checkUpdatability() method from 3.1 branch.
- Fix for ArrayIndexOutOfBounds exception when using
Statement.setMaxRows() (BUG#1695).
- Fixed BUG#1576, dealing with large blobs and split packets not
being read correctly.
- Fixed regression of Statement.getGeneratedKeys() and REPLACE
statements.
- Fixed BUG#1630, subsequent call to ResultSet.updateFoo() causes
NPE if result set is not updatable.
- Fix for 4.1.1-style auth with no password.
- Fix for BUG#1731, Foreign Keys column sequence is not consistent
in DatabaseMetaData.getImported/Exported/CrossReference().
- Fix for BUG#1775 - DatabaseMetaData.getSystemFunction() returning
  bad function 'VResultsSion'.
- Fix for BUG#1592 -- cross-database updatable result sets
  are not checked for updatability correctly.
- DatabaseMetaData.getColumns() should return Types.LONGVARCHAR for
  MySQL LONGTEXT type.
- ResultSet.getObject() on TINYINT and SMALLINT columns should
return Java type 'Integer' (BUG#1913)
- Added 'alwaysClearStream' connection property, which causes the driver
  to always empty any remaining data on the input stream before
  each query.
- Added more descriptive error message 'Server Configuration Denies
  Access to DataSource', as well as retrieval of message from server.
- Autoreconnect code didn't set catalog upon reconnect if it had
been changed.
- Implement ResultSet.updateClob().
- ResultSetMetaData.isCaseSensitive() returned wrong value for
CHAR/VARCHAR
  columns.
- Fix for BUG#1933 -- Connection property maxRows not honored.
- Fix for BUG#1925 -- Statements being created too many times in
  DBMD.extractForeignKeyFromCreateTable().
- Fix for BUG#1914 -- Support escape sequence {fn convert ... }
- Fix for BUG#1958 -- ArrayIndexOutOfBounds when parameter number ==
  number of parameters + 1.
- Fix for BUG#2006 -- ResultSet.findColumn() should use first
matching column name when there are duplicate column names in SELECT
query (JDBC-compliance).
- Removed static synchronization bottleneck from
  PreparedStatement.setTimestamp().
- Removed static synchronization bottleneck from instance factory
  method of SingleByteCharsetConverter.
- Enable caching of the parsing stage of prepared statements via
  the 'cachePrepStmts', 'prepStmtCacheSize' and
'prepStmtCacheSqlLimit' properties (disabled by default).
- Speed up parsing of PreparedStatements, try to use one-pass
whenever possible.
- Fixed security exception when used in Applets (applets can't
  read the system property 'file.encoding' which is needed
  for LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE).
- Use constants for SQLStates.
- Map charset 'ko18_ru' to 'ko18r' when connected to MySQL-4.1.0 or
  newer.
- Ensure that Buffer.writeString() saves room for the \0.
- Fixed exception 'Unknown character set 'danish' on connect w/
JDK-1.4.0
- Fixed mappings in SQLError to report deadlocks with SQLStates of
'41000'.
- 'maxRows' property would affect internal statements, so check it
for all statement creation internal to the driver, and set to 0 when it
is not.


Have fun with it!

MySQL Connector/J 3.0.9 STABLE Has Been Released

2003-10-08 Thread Mark Matthews
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

MySQL Connector/J 3.0.9, a new version of the Type-IV all-Java JDBC
driver for MySQL has been released.

It is now available in source and binary form from the Connector/J
download pages at http://www.mysql.com/downloads/api-jdbc-stable.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. The new CHANGELOG for 3.0.9 should be
posted on the website later today as well (the one for 3.0.8 is still
listed there), but 3.0.9 is available for downloading from the URL above.


- From the changelog:

10-07-03 - Version 3.0.9-stable
- Faster date handling code in ResultSet and PreparedStatement
  (no longer uses Date methods that synchronize on static
  calendars).
- Fixed test for end of buffer in Buffer.readString().
- Fixed ResultSet.previous() behavior to move current
  position to before result set when on first row
  of result set (bugs.mysql.com BUG#496)
- Fixed Statement and PreparedStatement issuing bogus queries
  when setMaxRows() had been used and a LIMIT clause was present
  in the query.
- Fixed BUG#661 - refreshRow didn't work when primary key values
  contained values that needed to be escaped (they ended up
  being doubly-escaped).
- Support InnoDB contraint names when extracting foreign key
  info in DatabaseMetaData BUG#517 and BUG#664
  (impl. ideas from Parwinder Sekhon)
- Backported 4.1 protocol changes from 3.1 branch (server-side
  SQL states, new field info, larger client capability flags,
  connect-with-database, etc).
- Fix UpdatableResultSet to return values for getXXX() when on
  insert row (BUG#675).
- The insertRow in an UpdatableResultSet is now loaded with
  the default column values when moveToInsertRow() is called
  (BUG#688)
- DatabaseMetaData.getColumns() wasn't returning NULL for
  default values that are specified as NULL.
- Change default statement type/concurrency to TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY
  and CONCUR_READ_ONLY (spec compliance).
- Don't try and reset isolation level on reconnect if MySQL
  doesn't support them.
- Don't wrap SQLExceptions in RowDataDynamic.
- Don't change timestamp TZ twice if useTimezone==true (BUG#774)
- Fixed regression in large split-packet handling (BUG#848).
- Better diagnostic error messages in exceptions for 'streaming'
  result sets.
- Issue exception on ResultSet.getXXX() on empty result set
  (wasn't caught in some cases).
- Don't hide messages from exceptions thrown in I/O layers.
- Don't fire connection closed events when closing pooled
  connections, or on PooledConnection.getConnection() with
  already open connections (BUG#884).
- Clip +/- INF (to smallest and largest representative values
  for the type in MySQL) and NaN (to 0) for
  setDouble/setFloat(), and issue a warning on the
  statement when the server does not support +/- INF or NaN.
- Fix for BUG#879, double-escaping of '\' when charset is SJIS
  or GBK and '\' appears in non-escaped input.
- When emptying input stream of unused rows for 'streaming'
  result sets, have the current thread yield() every 100 rows in
  order to not monopolize
  CPU time.
- Fixed BUG#1099, DatabaseMetaData.getColumns() getting confused
  about the keyword 'set' in character columns.
- Fixed deadlock issue with Statement.setMaxRows().
- Fixed CLOB.truncate(), BUG#1130
- Optimized CLOB.setChracterStream(), BUG#1131
- Made databaseName, portNumber and serverName optional
  parameters for MysqlDataSourceFactory (BUG#1246)
- Fix for BUG#1247 -- ResultSet.get/setString mashing char 127
- Backported auth. changes for 4.1.1 and newer from 3.1 branch.
- Added com.mysql.jdbc.util.BaseBugReport to help creation of
  testcases for bug reports.
- Added property to 'clobber' streaming results, by setting the
  'clobberStreamingResults' property to 'true' (the default is
  'false').
  This will cause a 'streaming' ResultSet to be automatically
  closed, and any oustanding data still streaming from the
  server to be discarded if another query is executed before all
  the data has been read from the server.


Have fun with it!

Somehow you are still using the older org.gjt.mm.mysql drivers not
connector/J.  When I asked many moons ago I was told that they could not
both be used at the same time by Tomcat even in separate contexts, but
YMMV.

Where does Connector/J fit into the MySQL3.23.x versus MySQL4.x client libraries?
Someone mentioned to me today that mod_php is still compiled with the old 3.23

Connector/J does anything different depending on whether it's talking to a 3.23

Connector/J does things differently when talking to 3.23, 4.0 and 4.1,
but it's all transparent as far as an end-user is concerned. There are
no native libraries used in Connector/J ... It's 100% pure Java, and
speaks the MySQL network protocol directly, so it doesn't have the
issues with library incompatibility that native applications might have
on some operating systems.

I read in the release notes that there is an implementation of XADataSource
(MySQLXADataSource), which does exist in the 2.0.14 release.   I've looked in
the 3.x releases and do not see it.   Am I just not seeing it?  Is this also
planned for the 3.x releases?

Thanks,

MySQL Connector/J 3.0.6 STABLE Has Been Released

Hash: SHA1

Hi,

MySQL Connector/J 3.0.6 a new version of the Type-IV all-Java JDBC
driver for MySQL has been released.

It is now available in source and binary form from the Connector/J
download pages at http://www.mysql.com/downloads/api-jdbc-stable.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.

This is the first STABLE release for the feature set that has been 
frozen for version 3.0 of Connector/J. Version 3.0.6 has reached a level 
of stability that is appropriate for production use.

From the changelog:

*  Fixed ResultSetMetaData to return  when catalog not known. 
Fixes NullPointerExceptions with Sun's CachedRowSet.
* Fixed DBMD.getTypeInfo() and DBMD.getColumns() returning 
different value for precision in TEXT/BLOB types.
* Allow ignoring of warning for 'non transactional tables' during 
rollback (compliance/usability) by setting 'ignoreNonTxTables' property 
to 'true'.
* Fixed SQLExceptions getting swallowed on initial connect.
* Fixed Statement.setMaxRows() to stop sending 'LIMIT' type queries 
when not needed (performance).
* Clean up Statement query/method mismatch tests (i.e. INSERT not 
allowed with .executeQuery()).
* More checks added in ResultSet traversal method to catch when in 
closed state.
* Fixed ResultSetMetaData.isWritable() to return correct value.
* Add 'window' of different NULL sorting behavior to 
DBMD.nullsAreSortedAtStart (4.0.2 to 4.0.10, true, otherwise, no).
* Implemented Blob.setBytes(). You still need to pass the resultant 
Blob back into an updatable ResultSet or PreparedStatement to persist 
the changes, as MySQL does not support 'locators'.
* Backported 4.1 charset field info changes from Connector/J 3.1


Have fun with it!

MySQL Connector/J 3.1.0 ALPHA Has Been Released

2003-02-18 Thread Mark Matthews
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

MySQL Connector/J 3.1.0 a new version of the Type-IV all-Java JDBC
driver for MySQL has been released.

It is now available in source and binary form from the Connector/J
download pages at http://www.mysql.com/downloads/api-jdbc-dev.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.

This is an ALPHA release for the feature set that is in line with the 
features MySQL-4.1 is offering, including Unicode character sets and 
server-side prepared statements.

From the changelog:

* Added 'requireSSL' property.
* Added 'useServerPrepStmts' property (default 'false'). The driver 
will use server-side prepared statements when the server version 
supports them (4.1 and newer) when this property is set to 'true'. It is 
currently set to 'false' by default until all bind/fetch functionality 
has been implemented. Currently only DML prepared statements are 
implemented for 4.1 server-side prepared statements.
* Track open Statements, close all when Connection.close() is 
called (JDBC compliance).


Have fun with it!

MySQL Connector/J 3.0.5 a new version of the Type-IV all-Java JDBC 
driver for MySQL has been released.

It is now available in source and binary form from the Connector/J 
download pages at http://www.mysql.com/downloads/api-jdbc-dev.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.

This is a bugfix release for the feature set that has been frozen for 
version 3.0 of Connector/J. This will most likely be the last GAMMA 
version of the 3.0 series, and 3.0.6 is expected to be declared STABLE.

From the changelog:

* Fixed Buffer.fastSkipLenString() causing ArrayIndexOutOfBounds 
exceptions with some queries when unpacking fields.
* Implemented an empty TypeMap for Connection.getTypeMap() so that 
some third-party apps work with MySQL (IBM WebSphere 5.0 Connection pool).
* Added missing LONGTEXT type to DBMD.getColumns().
* Retrieve TX_ISOLATION from database for 
Connection.getTransactionIsolation() when the MySQL version supports it, 
instead of an instance variable.
* Quote table names in DatabaseMetaData.getColumns(), 
getPrimaryKeys(), getIndexInfo(), getBestRowIdentifier()
* Greatly reduce memory required for setBinaryStream() in 
PreparedStatements.
* Fixed ResultSet.isBeforeFirst() for empty result sets.
* Added update options for foreign key metadata.
* - Fixed Connection.getTransactionIsolation() not picking up 
isolation levels for servers older than 4.0.x.
* Backport 4.1 protocol and authentication changes from Connector/J 
3.1.x

How-To-Repeat: MySql Connector J 3.x Problem

How-To-Repeat: MySql Connector J 3.x Problem

Dear Sir,

I have download MySQL Connector/J 3.x (mysql-connector-java-3.0.3-beta  
mysql-connector-java-3.0.4-gamma) and well install them on my java (JSDK 1.4.1) system 
(Win XP).

When I try to get the result set from the database, the result value character have be 
change. For example, if the right result string is '01', it return 'pq'. 

But, when I just replace with the stable verion mysql-connector-java-2.0.14, the 
result character is correct. For example, if the right result string is '01', it 
return '01'.

Please explain what happen !!

Can you create a reproducible test case? What character set is your
database set to? What character set is your computer set to?

Cannot download MySQL Connector/J from www.mysql.com

2003-01-03 Thread Richard Mayebo
I am using IE5 and Windows 2000. I am trying to download the Type 4 JDBC
driver for MySQL for a MySQL/Java/Linux project from the
link http://www.mysql.com/downloads/api-jdbc-stable.html.

The download I get as a result is about 45KB. However, it is not
recognised by tar or gzip utilities as a valid archive. Examining the file
with a binary editor suggests that it is an html document, detailing links
to your mirror sites. 

Please advise how I can get the download I require. 

Thanks in advance!

Richard.

Error with MySql Connector/J 3.0

2002-09-26 Thread Steve Bromley

I get the following error using either the 3.0 or 3.01 jars of the
Connector/J:

com.mysql.jdbc.NotUpdatable: Result Set not updateable. The query that
generated this result s
et must select only one table, and must select all primary keys from
that table. See the JDBC 2.1 API Specification, section 5.6 for more

I under stand the error but I am not using join and by doing a select *,
I should be including the primary key...

This is the snipplet of code that is causing the problem:
 Connection con =
ConnectIO.getStaticConnection(Soccer.getDBString());

   ConnectIO.executePreparedStatement(con,
   update players set selected = \F\ );
   cat_.info(Players selected field has been cleared.);

   ResultSet rs = ConnectIO.getResultSet(con,
   select id, zipcode, state, city, address,
lastname, firstname, selected, status  from players where status = \A\
order by ZipCode, State, City, Address, LastName, FirstName );

   while (rs.next()) {
   Integer id = (Integer) rs.getObject(ID);
   String firstName = (String) rs.getObject(FirstName);
   String lastName = (String) rs.getObject(LastName);
   String address = (String) rs.getObject(Address);
   String city = (String) rs.getObject(City);
   String state = (String) rs.getObject(State);
   String zipCode = (String) rs.getObject(ZipCode);

   if (!address.equals(lastAddress) ||
!city.equals(lastCity) ||
   !state.equals(lastState) ||
   !zipCode.equals(lastZipCode)) {
   rs.updateObject(Selected, T);
   rs.updateRow();
   v1.clear();
   v1.add(lastName);
   v1.add(firstName);
   msg = pf.print(%s  %s has been selected.,v1);
   cat_.info(msg);
   count++;
   }

   lastAddress = address;
   lastCity = city;
   lastState = state;
   lastZipCode = zipCode;
   }
   v1.clear();
   pf.setPattern(%i players have been selected.);
   v1.add(new Integer(count));
   msg =  pf.print(v1);
   cat_.info(msg);


This is the table that is being updated:

--
-- Table structure for table 'players'

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS players;
CREATE TABLE players (
 ID int(9) NOT NULL auto_increment,

I do not understand why I am getting the error.  Please advise.
This does work with the 2.14 drivers.

RE: MySQL Connector/J 2.0.14 issue

2002-08-21 Thread Fred Tsang

I think you're missing a few things:

1) Does your user have a password set?  If it does, u need to use the
following line to pass your username and password:

Connection connection = java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(
  jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test, username, password);

2) You need to allow your user 'icecream' to connect.  I don't really
understand the fine grain details of the grant statement, but u need to
grant permissions in mysql similar to the following:


GRANT ALL ON test.* TO 'icecream'@'localhost.localdomain';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Have a look at the grant command.

I have a question about myCC.  I can't connect to a local linux machine for
the life of me from my win2k box.  I've done the following:

GRANT ALL ON test.* TO 'fred'@'192.168.0.230';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

but, in my mysql.log I still get:

020816 14:11:18   6 Connect Access denied for user:
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: YES)

My user table looks like:
mysql select user,host from user;
++---+
| user   | host  |
++---+
| root   | 192.168.0.230 |
| fred   | 192.168.0.230 |
|| lancelot  |
| root   | lancelot  |
|| localhost |
| fred   | localhost |
| root   | localhost |
++---+

If anyone has an idea, please let me know.

Cheers,
Fred
