Can't view system tables due to Unsupported ArrowType Utf8View

[tjlee]

Describe the bug, including details regarding any error messages, version, and platform.

I'm using the latest JDBC 18.3 and I can't open some tables and retrieve column names due to the exception:

java.sql.SQLException: Error while executing SQL "SELECT t.*

Utf8View is not supported by the driver. What database vendor is this?

[tjlee]

@lidavidm , it's InfluxDB 3. They say the JDBC is fully compatible => influxdata/influxdb-java#727 (comment)

[lidavidm]

Well, a PR would be welcome.

[ViggoC]

@lidavidm I'd like to do it. I think it's related to #110 and #111.

[lidavidm]

@ViggoC that would be much appreciated. If you comment just take on an issue, it should assign it to you.
