Java Driver 1.0.1 released

[Michael Figuiere]

All,

We have released a new minor version 1.0.1 of our Java Driver. It's available on Maven Central. The changelog is:

  - [api] Function call handling in the query builder has been modified in a
    backward incompatible way. Function calls are not parsed from string values
    anymore as this wasn't safe. Instead the new 'fcall' method should be used
    (JAVA-100).
  - [api] Some typos in method names in PoolingOptions have been fixed in a
    backward incompatible way before the API get widespread.
  - [bug] Don't destroy composite partition key with BoundStatement and
    TokenAwarePolicy (JAVA-123).
  - [new] null values support in the query builder.
  - [new] SSL support (requires C* >= 1.2.1) (JAVA-5).
  - [new] Allow generating unlogged batch in the query builder (JAVA-113).
  - [improvement] Better error message when no host are available.
  - [improvement] Improves performance of the stress example application been.

The JIRAs resolved in this releases are:
