MySQL datasource

[PJ]

Hello,

There is remark in HikariCP README.md:

"The MySQL DataSource is known to be broken with respect to network timeout support. Use jdbcUrl configuration instead."

As I understand it refers to com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlDataSource, but there is new mysql Connector/J version 8 with new datasource:
com.mysql.cj.jdbc.MysqlDataSource. Does anyone know if it's still "broken with respect to network timeout support"?

I need to set connectTimeout and socketTimeout properties.

Any help would be appreciate.

Regards

Piotr

If in doubt, use JDBC-URL based configuration, instead of DataSource configurations.
