What's new

The following has been changed or fixed since Jaybird 5.0.3:

  • Firebird 5.0 is now formally supported
  • Fixed: Potential NPE when warningMessageCallback is null while reading operations or consuming packets (#778)
  • Fixed: FBRowUpdater incorrectly considers result set with only partial PK updatable -- backported from Jaybird 6 (#780)
  • Fixed: Use of offset timezone names (e.g. +05:00) for sessionTimeZone would result in a warning being logged, and an incorrect conversion applied (in UTC instead of the offset) when using the legacy time types -- backported from Jaybird 6 (#787)

Bug reports about undocumented changes in behavior are appreciated. Feedback can be sent to the Firebird-java Google Group or reported on the issue tracker https://github.com/FirebirdSQL/jaybird/issues.

What's new

The following has been changed or fixed since Jaybird 5.0.2:

  • Improvement: Do not reject attempts to read blob id 0 — backported from Jaybird 6 (#765)
    Previously, Jaybird rejected attempts to read blobs with blob id 0 (not on all code paths, for some only when assertions are enabled). Formally, blob id 0 is not a valid blob id, but in practice they can occur (e.g. due to bugs, or access components/drivers explicitly setting a blob column to id 0). Other drivers and tools simply send the requests for blob id 0 to the server, which then treats it as an empty blob. For consistency, we decided to let Jaybird handle it the same.
  • Fixed: on CHAR fields, a too short value could be returned if the string contained one or more codepoints represented by surrogate pairs and the string length in char exceeded the maximum string length — backported from Jaybird 6 (#770)
    We now truncate the returned string if the codepoint count exceeds the maximum string length.
  • Fixed: CallableStatement.getXXX(String) could return value from wrong column — backported from Jaybird 6 (#772)
  • Updated: error messages updated from Firebird 5.0.0.1272

What's new

Jaybird 5 is - from a JDBC perspective - an incremental change from Jaybird 4. However, internally, Jaybird underwent some major changes, the biggest was the removal of JCA (Java Connector Architecture) support.

The major changes and new features in Jaybird 5 are:

Upgrading from Jaybird 4 to 5 should be simple, but please make sure to read Compatibility changes before using Jaybird 5. See also Upgrading from Jaybird 4 to Jaybird 5.

Bug reports about undocumented changes in behavior are appreciated. Feedback can be sent to the Firebird-java mailing list or reported on the issue tracker https://github.com/FirebirdSQL/jaybird/issues.

What's new

The following has been changed or fixed since Jaybird 4.0.7:

  • Improvement: Backported new generated keys parser from Jaybird 5 to remove dependency on ANTLR (jaybird#718)
    With this change, Jaybird no longer relies on antlr-runtime-4.7.2.jar, if you don't need it yourself, you can remove this library from the classpath. See New parser for generated keys handling for more information.

What's new

The following has been changed or fixed since Jaybird 4.0.6:

  • Improvement: (VAR)CHAR is now sent to the server with blr_varying2 or blr_text2 which includes the character set information (jaybird#692)
  • Changed: Usages of String.toUpperCase and String.toLowerCase now use Locale.ROOT to prevent locale-sensitivity issues (jaybird#697)
  • New feature: Support for NBackup "clean history" option (jaybird#706)
    The org.firebirdsql.management.NBackupManager interface has three new methods: setCleanHistory(boolean) to enable (or disable) cleaning of history during backup, and setKeepDays(int) and setKeepRows(int) to specify the number of days or rows to keep history. These options require Firebird 4.0.3 or higher.
    This feature was backported from Jaybird 5.
  • Fixed: Calling PreparedStatement.setClob or PreparedStatement.setBlob with a null Clob, Reader, Blob, or InputStream would result in a NullPointerException (jaybird#712)
    As part of this change the behaviour of setClob methods accepting a Reader was changed to be identical to setCharacterStream, and setBlob accepting an InputStream to setBinaryStream. The end result before and after this change is identical, but it can result in different memory and performance characteristics, as the stream is now consumed on execute, and not on set.
