Issue exception on ResultSet.getXXX() on empty result set (wasn't caught in some cases). (Bug #848)

Made databaseName, portNumber, and serverName optional parameters for MysqlDataSourceFactory. (Bug #1246)

ResultSet.get/setString mashing char 127. (Bug #1247)

Double-escaping of '\' when charset is SJIS or GBK and '\' appears in nonescaped input. (Bug #879)

Don't hide messages from exceptions thrown in I/O layers. (Bug #848)

Support InnoDB constraint names when extracting foreign key information in DatabaseMetaData (implementing ideas from Parwinder Sekhon). (Bug #664, Bug #517)

Fixed CLOB.truncate(). (Bug #1130)

Fixed ResultSet.previous() behavior to move current position to before result set when on first row of result set. (Bug #496)

Backported 4.1 protocol changes from 3.1 branch (server-side SQL states, new field information, larger client capability flags, connect-with-database, and so forth). (Bug #664, Bug #517)

Fixed Statement and PreparedStatement issuing bogus queries when setMaxRows() had been used and a LIMIT clause was present in the query. (Bug #496)

Added property to “clobber” streaming results, by setting the clobberStreamingResults property to true (the default is false). This will cause a “streaming” ResultSet to be automatically closed, and any outstanding data still streaming from the server to be discarded if another query is executed before all the data has been read from the server. (Bug #1247)

When emptying input stream of unused rows for “streaming” result sets, have the current thread yield() every 100 rows to not monopolize CPU time. (Bug #879)

Fixed deadlock issue with Statement.setMaxRows(). (Bug #1099)

Don't wrap SQLExceptions in RowDataDynamic. (Bug #688)

Added com.mysql.jdbc.util.BaseBugReport to help creation of testcases for bug reports. (Bug #1247)

Clip +/- INF (to smallest and largest representative values for the type in MySQL) and NaN (to 0) for setDouble/setFloat(), and issue a warning on the statement when the server does not support +/- INF or NaN. (Bug #884)

Don't try and reset isolation level on reconnect if MySQL doesn't support them. (Bug #688)

DatabaseMetaData.getColumns() getting confused about the keyword “set” in character columns. (Bug #1099)

Fixed regression in large split-packet handling. (Bug #848)

Fixed test for end of buffer in Buffer.readString().

The insertRow in an UpdatableResultSet is now loaded with the default column values when moveToInsertRow() is called. (Bug #688)

Better diagnostic error messages in exceptions for “streaming” result sets. (Bug #848)

Backported authentication changes for 4.1.1 and newer from 3.1 branch. (Bug #1247)

DatabaseMetaData.getColumns() wasn't returning NULL for default values that are specified as NULL. (Bug #688)

Don't change timestamp TZ twice if useTimezone==true. (Bug #774)

refreshRow didn't work when primary key values contained values that needed to be escaped (they ended up being doubly escaped). (Bug #661)

Fix UpdatableResultSet to return values for getXXX() when on insert row. (Bug #675)

Don't fire connection closed events when closing pooled connections, or on PooledConnection.getConnection() with already open connections. (Bug #884)

Change default statement type/concurrency to TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY and CONCUR_READ_ONLY (spec compliance). (Bug #688)

Faster date handling code in ResultSet and PreparedStatement (no longer uses Date methods that synchronize on static calendars).

Optimized CLOB.setChracterStream(). (Bug #1131)
