D.8.2.5. Changes in MySQL Connector/CPP 1.0.1 (01 December 2008 alpha)

Functionality added or changed:

  • sql::mysql::MySQL_SQLException was removed. The distinction between server and client (connector) errors, based on the type of the exception, has been removed. However, the error code can still be checked to evaluate the error type.

  • Support for (n)make install was added. You can change the default installation path. Carefully read the messages displayed after executing cmake. The following are installed:

    • Static and the dynamic version of the library, libmysqlcppconn.

    • Generic interface, cppconn.

    • Two MySQL specific headers:

      mysql_driver.h, use this if you want to get your connections from the driver instead of instantiating a MySQL_Connection object. This makes your code portable when using the common interface.

      mysql_connection.h, use this if you intend to link directly to the MySQL_Connection class and use its specifics not found in sql::Connection.

      However, you can make your application fully abstract by using the generic interface rather than these two headers.

  • Driver Manager was removed.

  • Added ConnectionMetaData::getSchemas() and Connection::setSchema().

  • ConnectionMetaData::getCatalogTerm() returns not applicable, there is no counterpart to catalog in MySQL Connector/C++.

  • Added experimental GCov support, cmake -DMYSQLCPPCONN_GCOV_ENABLE:BOOL=1

  • All examples can be given optional connection parameters on the command line, for example:

    examples/connect tcp://host:port user pass database
    

    or

    examples/connect unix:///path/to/mysql.sock user pass database
    
  • Renamed ConnectionMetaData::getTables: TABLE_COMMENT to REMARKS.

  • Renamed ConnectionMetaData::getProcedures: PROCEDURE_SCHEMA to PROCEDURE_SCHEM.

  • Renamed ConnectionMetaData::getPrimaryKeys(): COLUMN to COLUMN_NAME, SEQUENCE to KEY_SEQ, and INDEX_NAME to PK_NAME.

  • Renamed ConnectionMetaData::getImportedKeys(): PKTABLE_CATALOG to PKTABLE_CAT, PKTABLE_SCHEMA to PKTABLE_SCHEM, FKTABLE_CATALOG to FKTABLE_CAT, FKTABLE_SCHEMA to FKTABLE_SCHEM.

  • Changed metadata column name TABLE_CATALOG to TABLE_CAT and TABLE_SCHEMA to TABLE_SCHEM to ensure JDBC compliance.

  • Introduced experimental CPack support, see make help.

  • All tests changed to create TAP compliant output.

  • Renamed sql::DbcMethodNotImplemented to sql::MethodNotImplementedException

  • Renamed sql::DbcInvalidArgument to sql::InvalidArgumentException

  • Changed sql::DbcException to implement the interface of JDBC's SQLException. Renamed to sql::SQLException.

  • Converted Connector/J tests added.

  • MySQL Workbench 5.1 changed to use MySQL Connector/C++ for its database connectivity.

  • New directory layout.
