Notable changes

Changed

• renewed the SSL keys for testing ### Added

Fixed

• getColumnPrecision for Numeric when scale and precision not specified now returns 0 instead of 131089 fixes: Issue #2188
• Calling refreshRow on an updateable resultset made the row readOnly. Fixes Issue #2193
• results should be updateable if there is a unique index available PR#2199 Fixes Issue #2196
• Rework sql type gathering to use OID instead of typname. This does not have the issue of name shadowing / qual-names, and has the added benefit of fixing #1948.

42.2.22

Changed

Added

Fixed

• Regression caused by https://github.com/pgjdbc/pgjdbc/commit/4fa2d5bc1ed8c0086a3a197fc1c28f7173d53cac. Unfortunately due to the blocking nature of the driver and issues with seeing if there is a byte available on a blocking stream when it is encrypted this introduces unacceptable delays in returning from peek(). At this time there is no simple solution to this.

42.2.21

42.2.20

Changed

Added

Fixed

• Partitioned indexes were not found fixes #2078 PR #2087

• isValid() timeout should not be blocked #1943 Cherry-picked #2076 The usage of setQueryTimeout(); with the same value as the setNetworkTimeout(); is blocking the current transaction timeout. The timeouts are blocking each other with this approach.

• DatabaseMetaData.getTables returns columns in UPPER case as per the spec PR #2092 fixes Issue #830

42.2.19

Notable Changes - Now the driver uses SASLprep normalization for SCRAM authentication fixing some issues with spaces in passwords. - If closeOnCompletion is called on an existing statement and the statement is executed a second time it will fail.

Changed

• Perf: avoid duplicate PGStream#changeSocket calls
• Fix: Actually close unclosed results. Previously was not closing the first unclosed result fixes #1903 (#1905) There is a small behaviour change here as a result. If closeOnCompletion is called on an existing statement and the statement is executed a second time it will fail.

Added

• Verify code via forbidden-apis (jdk-internal and jdk-non-portable signatures) PR #2012

Fixed

• Fix Binary transfer for numeric fixes #1935

• Fix Resolve ParseError in PGtokenizer fixes #2050
• Fix return metadata privileges for views and foreign tables

[42.2.18]

Fixed

• Unfortunately changing the default of gssEncMode to ALLOW was not enough. The GSSEncMode Enum was not changed as well fixed in #1920

[42.2.17]

Changed

• Change default of gssEncMode to ALLOW. PostgreSQL can deal with PREFER but there are cloud providers that did not implement the protocol properly. Libpq gets around this by checking for a GSS credential cache before attempting the connection. This is possible in JDK 8 and up, but not JDK6, or JDK7 fixes Issue #1868 PR #1913

Added

• Add smallserial metadata [PR #899(https://github.com/pgjdbc/pgjdbc/pull/899)

Fixed

• Avoid NullPointerException when receiving PGbox, PGcircle, PGline, PGlseg, PGpath, PGpoint, PGpolygon, and PGmoney PR 1873.
• The driver returns enum and jsonb arrays elements as String objects (like in 42.2.14 and earlier versions) PR 1879.
• PgTokenizer was ignoring last empty token PR #1882
• Remove osgi from karaf fixes Issue #1891 PR #1902

42.2.16

Known issues

• The driver returns enum and jsonb arrays elements are returned as PGobject instances (fixed in 42.2.17)

Fixed

• Arrays sent in binary format are now sent as 1 based. This was a regression for multi-dimensional arrays as well as text/varchar, oid and bytea arrays. Since 42.2.0 single dimensional arrays were stored 0 based. They are now sent 1 based which is the SQL standard, and the default for Postgres when sent as strings such as '{1,2,3}'. Fixes issue 1860 in PR 1863.

42.2.15

Known issues

• The driver returns enum and jsonb arrays elements are returned as PGobject instances (fixed in 42.2.17)

Changed

• Rename source distribution archive to postgresql-$version-jdbc-src.tar.gz, and add top-level archive folder ba017507
• Add the ability to connect with a GSSAPI encrypted connection. As of PostgreSQL version 12 GSSAPI encrypted connections are possible. Now the driver will attempt to connect to the server with a GSSAPI encrypted connection. If that fails then attempt an SSL connection, finally falling back to a plain text connection. All of this is controlled using both the gssEncMode and sslMode parameters which, in concert with pg_hba.conf, determine if a particular mode is allowed and or required. PR 1821 ad921b9e
• Source release archive shades dependencies (scram) by default. It affects only postgresql-version-src.tar.gz release artifact f0301eb9
• Refactor decoding arrays PR 1194

Added

• Verify nullness with CheckerFramework 6e524ae5

Fixed

• Avoid preparedStatement leak when using updateable ResultSet via insert/update/refreshRow PR 1815 9a0d2b18

• Close certificate file stream. PR 1837
• Make sure socketTimeout is enforced PR 1831
• Assume PKCS-8 SSL key format by default PR 1819
• Preserve unquoted unicode whitespace in array literals PR 1266

42.2.14

Changed

• Reverted com.github.waffle:waffle-jna, org.osgi:org.osgi.core, org.osgi:org.osgi.enterprise dependencies to optional=true in Maven PR 1797.

42.2.13

Notable Changes

• Security: The primary reason to release this version and to continue the 42.2.x branch is for CVE-2020-13692. Reported by David Dworken, this is an XXE and more information can be found here. Sehrope Sarkuni reworked the XML parsing to provide a solution in commit 14b62aca4.
• The build system has been changed to Gradle thanks to Vladimir PR 1627.
• Regression: com.github.waffle:waffle-jna, org.osgi:org.osgi.core, org.osgi:org.osgi.enterprise dependencies are listed as non-optional issue 1975.

42.2.12

Notable changes

42.1.4

Changed

• Statements with non-zero fetchSize no longer require server-side named handle. This might cause issues when using old PostgreSQL versions (pre-8.4)+fetchSize+interleaved ResultSet processing combo. Issue 869

42.1.3

Fixed

• Fix NPE in PreparedStatement.executeBatch in case of empty batch (regression since 42.1.2). PR 867

42.1.2

Changed

• Better logic for returning keyword detection. Previously, pgjdbc could be defeated by column names that contain returning, so pgjdbc failed to "return generated keys" as it considered statement as already having returning keyword PR 824 201daf1d
• Use server-prepared statements for batch inserts when prepareThreshold>0. Note: this enables batch to use server-prepared from the first executeBatch() execution (previously it waited for prepareThreshold executeBatch() calls) abc3d9d7

Fixed

• Replication API: fix issue in #834 setting statusIntervalUpdate causes high CPU load. PR 835 59236b74

Changed

• Version bumped to 42.0.0 to avoid version clash with PostgreSQL version and follow a better sematic versioning. 46634923

• Error position is displayed when SQL has unterminated literals, comments, etc. Issue 688
• Strict handling of accepted values in getBoolean and setObject(BOOLEAN), now it follows PostgreSQL accepted values, only 1 and 0 for numeric types are accepted (previously !=0 was true). PR 732
• Return correct versions and name of the driver. PR 668

Removed

• Support for PostgreSQL versions below 8.2 was dropped. PR 661

Deprecated

• Deprecated PGPoolingDataSource, instead of this class you should use a fully featured connection pool like HikariCP, vibur-dbcp, commons-dbcp, c3p0, etc. PR 739

Regressions

• Data truncated in setCharacterStream. Fixed in 42.1.0
• No suitable driver found for jdbc:postgresql when using a DataSource implementation. Fixed in 42.1.0
