[RELEASE] DataStax Java driver 3.0.0-rc1

[Alexandre Dutra]

We've just released version 3.0.0-rc1 of the driver.

This is our first – and hopefully last – release candidate before the final 3.0.0 release. 

There are very little changes from beta1. In particular, the API remains the same and should be considered as the final API from now on. If you are upgrading from 2.1, make sure to read our upgrade guide. The online javadoc should be updated shortly, please be patient.

As usual, the driver is available from Maven Central and as a downloadable, self-contained binary distribution; see the "Getting the driver" section in our online documentation for further details.

Hi Alexandre,

I am trying to build prestodb against this version (Presto is currently using 2.1.5 of the driver). There are these breaking changes:

com.datastax.driver.core.ColumnMetadata - removed getIndex() method
com.datastax.driver.core.LocalDate - removed getTime()

was checking http://datastax.github.io/java-driver/upgrade_guide/ but I didn't find any mentions of these. Could you help me figuring out what to do instead of these calls - the LocalDate I can probably figure out on my own :) 

Cheers,

Reik

Hello, 

The indexes hierarchy have changed in Cassandra 3.0 and we do reflect this on the drivers. An IndexMetadata is now accessible from the TableMetadata class with the getIndex(String) or getIndexes() method. The ticket introducing these changes is JAVA-875, for more infos.

Also, I am looking at the code for the java driver version 2.1.5, and I do not seem to find the LocalDate class. So you are probably referring to the current 3.0 LocalDate class, right? If so, no this class does not implement a getTime(), however you may want to check the Custom codecs for the Joda Time of Java 8 Time libraries to get these features.

Cheers.

Hello,

I will add a note to the upgrade guide to mention that ColumnMetadata.getIndex() has been removed.

Thanks,
