Jaybird 5.0.1 and 4.0.9 released

[Mark Rotteveel]

We are happy to announce the release of Jaybird 5.0.1 and Jaybird 4.0.9.

Jaybird 5.0.1

The following has been fixed since Jaybird 5.0.0:

• Fixed: Executing DML with a RETURNING clause containing a blob column would return the blob-id instead of the blob value (jaybird#728)

• Fixed: CallableStatement.getString and CallableStatement.getObject would incorrectly trim string values (jaybird#729)

• Fixed: ResultSetMetaData.getPrecision(int) of a connectionless result set could throw a NullPointerException if the column was of type FLOAT or DOUBLE PRECISION (jaybird#730)

Jaybird 5 supports Firebird 2.5 and higher, on Java 8, 11, 17 and 19 (support for Java 11 and higher using the Java 11 version of the driver).

Jaybird 4.0.9

The following has been fixed since Jaybird 4.0.8:

• Fixed: Some methods of FBClob threw NullPointerException when attempting to use after implicit or explicit free() (jaybird#719)

• Improvement: If the default JVM time zone is a GMT offset, e.g. GMT-08:00, configure sessionTimeZone with offset only, e.g. -08:00 (jaybird#720)

• Fixed: Executing DML with a RETURNING clause containing a blob column would return the blob-id instead of the blob value (jaybird#728)

• Fixed: CallableStatement.getString would incorrectly trim string values (jaybird#729)

• Fixed: ResultSetMetaData.getPrecision(int) of a connectionless result set could throw a NullPointerException if the column was of type FLOAT or DOUBLE PRECISION (jaybird#730)

Jaybird 4 supports Firebird 2.5 and higher, on Java 7, 8, 11, 17 and 19 (support for Java 11 and higher using the Java 11 version of the driver).

Hi Mark!

For 4.0.7, the jaybird-4.0.7.java8-sources.jar was available in Maven.

For 5.0.1 Maven does not download the "-sources.jar". Could you publish that version also?

Thank you!

They do exist, see

https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/firebirdsql/jdbc/jaybird/5.0.1.java11/

and

https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/firebirdsql/jdbc/jaybird/5.0.1.java8/

And in my Maven projects in IntelliJ, the sources are downloaded just
fine (I even checked by explicitly deleting it from my local repository).
