VJDBC / News: Recent posts

After quite a long time a small update for VJDBC. Some nice features were added, e. g. support for configuration variables. As always, take a look at changelog.txt for a list of changes.

Just a new release with support for Jakarta-HttpClient, Request-Enhancement, improved RMI-Configuration ...

Have fun with it !

This is just a bugfix release. More important: VJDBC-Development has moved to SourceForge-SVN ! In the future you can download and test patches, bugfixes and new features before the actual release.

Happy Easter !!!

VJDBC-Xmas-Release: a small number of bugfixes and two important changes concerning VJDBC-Security. Please take a look at changelog.txt for details.

VJDBC 1.6.1 is out now containing a few bugfixes. No need to update when you haven't encountered problems with 1.6.

- timeout checking can now be configured
- reworked exception handling with VJDBC/HTTP
- some minor bugfixes

This release fixes a problem that was introduced with 1.4 concerning asynchronous ResultSet reading. Additionally SQLException contain now more information about the error that occured on server-side. And (as always) minor tweaks and bugfixes.

Regards,

Michael

Performance enhancements, more type conversions and minor bug fixes.

Important bugfix (plus a little bit performance) release. DBCP-Connection-Pooling can now be configured very fine-grained.

V1.2.1 fixes a bug which could show up when using VJDBC with JDK 1.5. When you don't use JDK 1.5, an upgrade is not necessary.

After heavy performance tests the serialisation mechanism for ResultSets was completely reworked and optimized. The results are very good, please go to http://vjdbc.sourceforge.net for the first official performance comparisons against Duality and RmiJdbc.

Implemented PreparedStatement.execute() which makes VJDBC now compatible with DbVisualizer :-)

Finally, almost exactly one year after the initial release, VJDBC gets its 1.0 release ! Please read the Change-Log for more details. Thanks for your support !

After a quite long period of silence (moved to another city, changed my employer) I'm now working hard to get the next version of VJDBC out. I hope it will be 1.0, perhaps there will be pre-release (0.9.5) to hand out the already implemented features like

* Implemented support for DataSource API
* The calling context of orphaned objects like Statements or ResultSets can now be traced back to the origin. That way potential resource "leaks" caused by not closing JDBC objects can be traced easily.
* User/Password for the database connection can now be specified in the configuration.... read more

Major speed improvements; more tests with MySQL, Oracle 9i, JDBC-ODBC; new configuration scheme ... read the Change-Log for more information.

Some enhancements like connection-pooling, repackaging for smaller client jars, updated documentation ...

Small bugfix release, please read the change log.

The initial release (V0.8.1) of VJDBC is now available. VJDBC is a type-3 JDBC driver for client/server communication over different networking protocols (currently RMI and HTTP is supported).
