ENHANCEMENTS

• Support for the Kerberos authentication protocol has been added with the following
  connection properties: AuthenticationMethod and ServicePrincipalName.*
• The ExtendedColumnMetadata connection property has been added to the driver.
  This property determines how the driver returns column metadata when retrieving
  results with ResultSetMetaData methods.*
• 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

• 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

ENHANCEMENTS

• Added SupportsCatalogs connection property, which enables driver support for catalog calls
• Added four connection properties to handle VARCHAR, LONGVARCHAR, and NUMERIC data types: MaxVarcharSize, MaxLongVarcharSize, MaxNumericPrecision, and MaxNumericScale
