The documentation for the JDBC driver at MySQL.com shows you any MySQL
_specific_ information. It is assumed that you either know JDBC or know
where to look for the information (I believe it even has some pointers
in the docs). There are plenty of documentation artifacts for JDBC
(books, tutorials, apidocs, etc), there's no reason for us to re-invent
the wheel there.
We implement the _standard_, there are very few 'extensions' to the JDBC
standard in the Connector/J docs...Where there are, they're documented.
