Abstract This manual describes MySQL Connector/J, the JDBC implementation for communicating with MySQL servers. Document generated on: 2008-10-21 (revision: 12106) ________________________________________________________ MySQL Connector/J MySQL provides connectivity for client applications developed in the Java programming language via a JDBC driver, which is called MySQL Connector/J. MySQL Connector/J is a JDBC Type 4 driver. Different versions are available that are compatible with the JDBC 3.0 and JDBC 4.0 specifications. The Type 4 designation means that the driver is pure-Java implementation of the MySQL protocol and does not rely on the MySQL client libraries. Although JDBC is useful by itself, we would hope that if you are not familiar with JDBC that after reading the first few sections of this manual, that you would avoid using naked JDBC for all but the most trivial problems and consider using one of the popular persistence frameworks such as Hibernate (http://www.hibernate.org/), Spring's JDBC templates (http://www.springframework.org/) or Ibatis SQL Maps (http://ibatis.apache.org/) to do the majority of repetitive work and heavier lifting that is sometimes required with JDBC. This section is not designed to be a complete JDBC tutorial. If you need more information about using JDBC you might be interested in the following online tutorials that are more in-depth than the information presented here: * JDBC Basics (http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/jdbc/basics/inde x.html) --- A tutorial from Sun covering beginner topics in JDBC * JDBC Short Course (http://java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/Database/JD BCShortCourse/index.html) --- A more in-depth tutorial from Sun and JGuru Key topics: * For help with connection strings, connection options setting up your connection through JDBC, see Section 4.1, "Driver/Datasource Class Names, URL Syntax and Configuration Properties for Connector/J." * For tips on using Connector/J and JDBC with generic J2EE toolkits, see Section 5.2, "Using Connector/J with J2EE and Other Java Frameworks." * Developers using the Tomcat server platform, see Section 5.2.2, "Using Connector/J with Tomcat." * Developers using JBoss, see Section 5.2.3, "Using Connector/J with JBoss." * Developers using Spring, see Section 5.2.4, "Using Connector/J with Spring."

Chapter 1. Connector/J Versions There are currently four versions of MySQL Connector/J available: * Connector/J 5.1 is the Type 4 pure Java JDBC driver, which conforms to the JDBC 3.0 and JDBC 4.0 specifications. It provides compatibility with all the functionality of MySQL, including 4.1, 5.0, 5.1 and the 6.0 alpha release featuring the new Falcon storage engine. Connector/J 5.1 provides ease of development features, including auto-registration with the Driver Manager, standardized validity checks, categorized SQLExceptions, support for the JDBC-4.0 XML processing, per connection client information, NCHAR, NVARCHAR and NCLOB types. This release also includes all bug fixes up to and including Connector/J 5.0.6. * Connector/J 5.0 provides support for all the functionality offered by Connector/J 3.1 and includes distributed transaction (XA) support. * Connector/J 3.1 was designed for connectivity to MySQL 4.1 and MySQL 5.0 servers and provides support for all the functionality in MySQL 5.0 except distributed transaction (XA) support. * Connector/J 3.0 provides core functionality and was designed with connectivity to MySQL 3.x or MySQL 4.1 servers, although it will provide basic compatibility with later versions of MySQL. Connector/J 3.0 does not support server-side prepared statements, and does not support any of the features in versions of MySQL later than 4.1. The following table summarizes the Connector/J versions available: Connector/J version Driver Type JDBC version MySQL Server version Status 5.1 4 3.0, 4.0 4.1, 5.0, 5.1, 6.0 Recommended version 5.0 4 3.0 4.1, 5.0 Released version 3.1 4 3.0 4.1, 5.0 Obsolete 3.0 4 3.0 3.x, 4.1 Obsolete The current recommended version for Connector/J is 5.1. This guide covers all four connector versions, with specific notes given where a setting applies to a specific option. 1.1. Java Versions Supported The following table summarizes Connector/J Java dependencies: Connector/J version Java RTE required JDK required (to build source code) 5.1 1.3.x, 1.4.x, 1.5.x, 1.6.x 1.6.x and 1.5.x (or older) 5.0 1.3.x, 1.4.x, 1.5.x, 1.6.x 1.4.2, 1.5.x, 1.6.x 3.1 1.2.x, 1.3.x, 1.4.x, 1.5.x, 1.6.x 1.4.2, 1.5.x, 1.6.x 3.0 1.2.x, 1.3.x, 1.4.x, 1.5.x, 1.6.x 1.4.2, 1.5.x, 1.6.x MySQL Connector/J does not support JDK-1.1.x or JDK-1.0.x. Because of the implementation of java.sql.Savepoint, Connector/J 3.1.0 and newer will not run on a Java runtime older than 1.4 unless the class verifier is turned off (by setting the -Xverify:none option to the Java runtime). This is because the class verifier will try to load the class definition for java.sql.Savepoint even though it is not accessed by the driver unless you actually use savepoint
