ENHANCEMENTS
The driver has been enhanced to support the void cancel() method for SELECT statements with OpenEdge V12.4 and higher. If a SELECT statement is cancelled during the first or a subsequent fetch operation, the driver returns a "query aborted" exception. This method can be used by a thread to cancel a statement that is being executed by another thread. One or more statements may be cancelled if the method is called on a statement object that is
executing multiple statements simultaneously and the driver may not return expected results.*
The driver has been enhanced to include timestamp in the Spy and JDBC packet logs by default. If required, you can disable the timestamp logging by specifying the following at connection: For Spy logs, set spyAttributes=(log=(file)Spy.log;timestamp=no)
and for JDBC packet logs, set ddtdbg.ProtocolTraceShowTime=false.*
Interactive SQL for JDBC (JDBCISQL) is now installed with the product. JDBCISQL is a command-line interface that supports connecting your driver to a data source, executing SQL statements and retrieving results in a terminal. This tool provides a
method to quickly test your drivers in an environment that does not support GUIs.*
The CryptoProtocolVersion connection property has been added to the driver. This property can be used to avoid vulnerabilities associated with SSLv3 and SSLv2, including the POODLE vulnerability.
Support for result set holdability has been added to the driver.
CHANGED BEHAVIOR
Java SE 7 has reached the end of its product life cycle and will no longer receive generally available security updates. As a result, the drivers will no longer support JVMs that are version Java SE 7 or earlier. Support for distributed versions of
Java SE 7 and earlier will also end, including IBM SDK (Java Edition).*
Added the RegisterStatementPoolMonitorMBean connection property. Note that the driver no longer registers the Statement Pool Monitor as a JMX MBean by default. You must set RegisterStatementPoolMonitorMBean to true to register the Statement
Pool Monitor and manage statement pooling with standard JMX API calls.*
Version 5.1.2
