<h2>Next Version (unreleased)</h2>
20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28
<ul><li>H2 Console: the built-in web server did not work properly
    if an unknown file was requested.
</li><li>MVStore: the jar file is renamed to "h2-mvstore-*.jar" and is
    deployed to Maven separately.
</li><li>MVStore: support for concurrent reads and writes is now enabled by default.
</li><li>Server mode: the transfer buffer size has been changed from 16 KB to 64 KB,
    after it was found that this improves performance on Linux quite a lot.
</li><li>H2 Console and server mode: SSL is now disabled and TLS is used
    to protect against the Poodle SSLv3 vulnerability.
29 30
    The system property to disable secure anonymous connections is now
    "h2.enableAnonymousTLS".
31
    The default certificate is still self-signed, so you need to manually install
32 33 34
    another one if you want to avoid man in the middle attacks.
</li><li>MVStore: the R-tree did not correctly measure the memory usage.
</li><li>MVStore: compacting a store with an R-tree did not always work.
35
</li><li>Issue 581: When running in LOCK_MODE=0,
36 37
        JdbcDatabaseMetaData#supportsTransactionIsolationLevel(TRANSACTION_READ_UNCOMMITTED)
    should return false
38
</li><li>Fix bug which could generate deadlocks when multiple connections accessed the same table.
39 40
</li><li>Some places in the code were not respecting the value set in the "SET MAX_MEMORY_ROWS x" command
</li><li>Fix bug which could generate a NegativeArraySizeException when performing large (>40M) row union operations

<h2>Version 1.4.182 Beta (2014-10-17)</h2>
44 45 46
<ul><li>MVStore: improved error messages and logging;
    improved behavior if there is an error when serializing objects.
</li><li>OSGi: the MVStore packages are now exported.

47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58
</li><li>With the MVStore option, when using multiple threads
    that concurrently create indexes or tables,
    it was relatively easy to get a lock timeout on the "SYS" table.
</li><li>When using the multi-threaded option, the exception
    "Unexpected code path" could be thrown, specially if the option
    "analyze_auto" was set to a low value.
</li><li>In the server mode, when reading from a CLOB or BLOB, if the connection
    was closed, a NullPointerException could be thrown instead of an exception saying
    the connection is closed.
</li><li>DatabaseMetaData.getProcedures and getProcedureColumns
    could throw an exception if a user defined class is not available.
</li><li>Issue 584: the error message for a wrong sequence definition was wrong.
59
</li><li>CSV tool: the rowSeparator option is no longer supported,
60 61
    as the same can be achieved with the lineSeparator.
</li><li>Descending indexes on MVStore tables did not work properly.
62
</li><li>Issue 579: Conditions on the "_rowid_" pseudo-column didn't use an index
63 64 65
    when using the MVStore.
</li><li>Fixed documentation that "offset" and "fetch" are also keywords since version 1.4.x.
</li><li>The Long.MIN_VALUE could not be parsed for auto-increment (identity) columns.
66
</li><li>Issue 573: Add implementation for Methods "isWrapperFor()" and "unwrap()" in
67
    other JDBC classes.
68
</li><li>Issue 572: MySQL compatibility for "order by" in update statements.
69 70 71 72
</li><li>The change in  JDBC escape processing in version 1.4.181 affects both the parser
    (which is running on the server) and the JDBC API (which is running on the client).
    If you (or a tool you use) use the syntax "{t 'time}", or "{ts 'timestamp'}", or "{d 'data'}",
    then both the client and the server need to be upgraded to version 1.4.181 or later.

<h2>Version 1.4.181 Beta (2014-08-06)</h2>
76 77 78
<ul><li>Improved MySQL compatibility by supporting "use schema".
    Thanks a lot to Karl Pietrzak for the patch!
</li><li>Writing to the trace file is now faster, specially with the debug level.
79
</li><li>The database option "defrag_always=true" did not work with the MVStore.
80
</li><li>The JDBC escape syntax {ts 'value'} did not interpret the value as a timestamp.
81 82
    The same for {d 'value'} (for date) and {t 'value'} (for time).
    Thanks to Lukas Eder for reporting the issue.
83 84 85 86 87
    The following problem was detected after version 1.4.181 was released:
    The change in  JDBC escape processing affects both the parser (which is running on the server)
    and the JDBC API (which is running on the client).
    If you (or a tool you use) use the syntax {t 'time'}, or {ts 'timestamp'}, or {d 'date'},
    then both the client and the server need to be upgraded to version 1.4.181 or later.
88 89
</li><li>File system abstraction: support replacing existing files using move
    (currently not for Windows).
90
</li><li>The statement "shutdown defrag" now compresses the database (with the MVStore).
91 92 93 94 95
    This command can greatly reduce the file size, and is relatively fast,
    but is not incremental.
</li><li>The MVStore now automatically compacts the store in the background if there is no read or write activity,
    which should (after some time; sometimes about one minute) reduce the file size.
    This is still work in progress, feedback is welcome!
96
</li><li>Change default value of PAGE_SIZE from 2048 to 4096 to more closely match most file systems block size
97
    (PageStore only; the MVStore already used 4096).
98
</li><li>Auto-scale MAX_MEMORY_ROWS and CACHE_SIZE settings by the amount of available RAM. Gives a better
99
    out of box experience for people with more powerful machines.
100
</li><li>Handle tabs like 4 spaces in web console, patch by Martin Grajcar.
101
</li><li>Issue 573: Add implementation for Methods "isWrapperFor()" and "unwrap()" in JdbcConnection.java,
102
    patch by BigMichi1.

<h2>Version 1.4.180 Beta (2014-07-13)</h2>
106 107
<ul><li>MVStore: the store is now auto-compacted automatically up to some point,
    to avoid very large file sizes. This area is still work in progress.

108
</li><li>Sequences of temporary tables (auto-increment or identity columns)

Thomas Mueller committed
109 110 111 112 113 114
    were persisted unnecessarily in the database file, and were not removed
    when re-opening the database.
</li><li>MVStore: an IndexOutOfBoundsException could sometimes
    occur MVMap.openVersion when concurrently accessing the store.
</li><li>The LIRS cache now re-sizes the internal hash map if needed.
</li><li>Optionally persist session history in the H2 console. (patch from Martin Grajcar)
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
115
</li><li>Add client-info property to get the number of servers currently in the cluster

    open when the wrong password was supplied. (test case from Jens Hohmuth).
</li><li>Issue 567: H2 hangs for a long time then (sometimes) recovers.
    Introduce a queue when doing table locking to prevent session starvation.

<h2>Version 1.4.179 Beta (2014-06-23)</h2>
124 125
<ul><li>The license was changed to MPL 2.0 (from 1.0) and EPL 1.0.
</li><li>Issue 565: MVStore: concurrently adding LOB objects
126 127 128
    (with MULTI_THREADED option) resulted in a NullPointerException.
</li><li>MVStore: reduced dependencies to other H2 classes.
</li><li>There was a way to prevent a database from being re-opened,
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
129 130
    by creating a column constraint that references a table with a higher id,
    for example with "check" constraints that contains queries.
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
131 132 133 134
    This is now detected, and creating the table is prohibited.
    In future versions of H2, most likely creating references to other
    tables will no longer be supported because of such problems.
</li><li>MVStore: descending indexes with "nulls first" did not work as expected
135 136
    (null was ordered last).
</li><li>Large result sets now always create temporary tables instead of temporary files.
137
</li><li>When using the PageStore, opening a database failed in some cases with a NullPointerException
138 139 140 141 142 143 144 145 146 147
    if temporary tables were used (explicitly, or implicitly when using large result sets).
</li><li>If a database file in the PageStore file format exists, this file and this mode
    is now used, even if the database URL does not contain "MV_STORE=FALSE".
    If a MVStore file exists, it is used.
</li><li>Databases created with version 1.3.175 and earlier
    that contained foreign keys in combination with multi-column indexes
    could not be opened in some cases.
    This was due to a bugfix in version 1.3.176:
    Referential integrity constraints sometimes used the wrong index.
</li><li>MVStore: the ObjectDataType comparison method was incorrect if one
148
    key was Serializable and the other was of a common class.
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
149
</li><li>Recursive queries with many result rows (more than the setting "max_memory_rows")
150 151 152 153
    did not work correctly.
</li><li>The license has changed to MPL 2.0 + EPL 1.0.
</li><li>MVStore: temporary tables from result sets could survive re-opening a database,
    which could result in a ClassCastException.
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
154
</li><li>Issue 566: MVStore: unique indexes that were created later on did not work correctly
155
    if there were over 5000 rows in the table.
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
156
    Existing databases need to be re-created (at least the broken index need to be re-built).

Thomas Mueller committed
157
</li><li>MVStore: creating secondary indexes on large tables
158 159
    results in missing rows in the index.
</li><li>Metadata: the password of linked tables is now only visible for admin users.
160
</li><li>For Windows, database URLs of the form "jdbc:h2:/test" where considered
161
    relative and did not work unless the system property "h2.implicitRelativePath" was used.
162
</li><li>Windows: using a base directory of "C:/" and similar did not work as expected.
163
</li><li>Follow JDBC specification on Procedures MetaData, use P0 as

    return type of procedure.
165
</li><li>Issue 531: IDENTITY ignored for added column.
166

    query does not contain an intersects operator.
</li><li>Fix multi-threaded deadlock when using a View that includes a TableFunction.

<h2>Version 1.4.178 Beta (2014-05-02)</h2>
174 175
<ul><li>Issue 559: Make dependency on org.osgi.service.jdbc optional.
</li><li>Improve error message when the user specifies an unsupported combination of database settings.
176
</li><li>MVStore: in the multi-threaded mode, NullPointerException and other exceptions could occur.
177
</li><li>MVStore: some database file could not be compacted due to a bug in
178 179
    the bookkeeping of the fill rate. Also, database file were compacted quite slowly.
    This has been improved; but more changes in this area are expected.
180
</li><li>MVStore: support for volatile maps (that don't store changes).
181
</li><li>MVStore mode: in-memory databases now also use the MVStore.
182
</li><li>In server mode, appending ";autocommit=false" to the database URL was working,
183
    but the return value of Connection.getAutoCommit() was wrong.
184
</li><li>Issue 561: OSGi: the import package declaration of org.h2 excluded version 1.4.
185 186
</li><li>Issue 558: with the MVStore, a NullPointerException could occur when using LOBs
    at session commit (LobStorageMap.removeLob).
187 188
</li><li>Remove the "h2.MAX_MEMORY_ROWS_DISTINCT" system property to reduce confusion.
    We already have the MAX_MEMORY_ROWS setting which does a very similar thing, and is better documented.
189
</li><li>Issue 554: Web Console in an IFrame was not fully supported.

Thomas Mueller committed
193
<ul><li>By default, the MV_STORE option is enabled, so it is using the new MVStore

194
    storage. The MVCC setting is by default set to the same values as the MV_STORE setting,
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
195
    so it is also enabled by default. For testing, both settings can be disabled by appending
196
    ";MV_STORE=FALSE" and/or ";MVCC=FALSE" to the database URL.
Thomas Mueller's avatar

197 198
</li><li>The file locking method 'serialized' is no longer supported.
    This mode might return in a future version,
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
199 200 201
    however this is not clear right now.
    A new implementation and new tests would be needed.
</li><li>Enable the new storage format for dates (system property "h2.storeLocalTime").
202 203 204 205 206
    For the MVStore mode, this is always enabled, but with version 1.4
    this is even enabled in the PageStore mode.
</li><li>Implicit relative paths are disabled (system property "h2.implicitRelativePath"),
    so that the database URL jdbc:h2:test now needs to be written as jdbc:h2:./test.
</li><li>"select ... fetch first 1 row only" is supported with the regular mode.
207
    This was disabled so far because "fetch" and "offset" are now keywords.
208 209 210
    See also Mode.supportOffsetFetch.
</li><li>Byte arrays are now sorted in unsigned mode
    (x'99' is larger than x'09').
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
211
    (System property "h2.sortBinaryUnsigned", Mode.binaryUnsigned, setting "binary_collation").
212 213 214 215 216
</li><li>Csv.getInstance will be removed in future versions of 1.4.
    Use the public constructor instead.
</li><li>Remove support for the limited old-style outer join syntax using "(+)".
    Use "outer join" instead.
    System property "h2.oldStyleOuterJoin".
217
</li><li>Support the data type "DATETIME2" as an alias for "DATETIME", for MS SQL Server compatibility.
218
</li><li>Add Oracle-compatible TRANSLATE function, patch by Eric Chatellier.

<ul><li>The file locking method 'serialized' is no longer documented,
    as it will not be available in version 1.4.
</li><li>The static method Csv.getInstance() was removed.
    Use the public constructor instead.
</li><li>The default user name for the Script, RunScript, Shell,
227 228
    and CreateCluster tools are no longer "sa" but an empty string.
</li><li>The stack trace of the exception "The object is already closed" is no longer logged by default.
229
</li><li>If a value of a result set was itself a result set, the result
230 231
    could only be read once.
</li><li>Column constraints are also visible in views (patch from Nicolas Fortin for H2GIS).
232
</li><li>Granting a additional right to a role that already had a right for that table was not working.
233
</li><li>Spatial index: a few bugs have been fixed (using spatial constraints in views,
234
    transferring geometry objects over TCP/IP, the returned geometry object is copied when needed).
235
</li><li>Issue 551: the datatype documentation was incorrect (found by Bernd Eckenfels).
236
</li><li>Issue 368: ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE did not work for multi-row inserts.
237 238
    Test case from Angus Macdonald.
</li><li>OSGi: the package javax.tools is now imported (as an optional).
239
</li><li>H2 Console: auto-complete is now disabled by default, but there is a hot-key (Ctrl+Space).

240 241
</li><li>H2 Console: auto-complete did not work with multi-line statements.
</li><li>CLOB and BLOB data was not immediately removed after a rollback.
242
</li><li>There is a new Aggregate API that supports the internal H2 data types
243 244
    (GEOMETRY for example). Thanks a lot to Nicolas Fortin for the patch!
</li><li>Referential integrity constraints sometimes used the wrong index,
245 246 247
    such that updating a row in the referenced table incorrectly failed with
    a constraint violation.
</li><li>The Polish translation was completed and corrected by Wojtek Jurczyk. Thanks a lot!
248
</li><li>Issue 545: Unnecessary duplicate code was removed.
249
</li><li>The profiler tool can now process files with full thread dumps.
250
</li><li>MVStore: the file format was changed slightly.
251
</li><li>MVStore mode: the CLOB and BLOB storage was re-implemented and is
252
    now much faster than with the PageStore (which is still the default storage).
253 254 255 256
</li><li>MVStore mode: creating indexes is now much faster
    (in many cases faster than with the default PageStore).
</li><li>Various bugs in the MVStore storage and have been fixed,
    including a bug in the R-tree implementation.
257
    The database could get corrupt if there were transient IO exceptions while storing.

<h2>Version 1.3.174 (2013-10-19)</h2>
321
<ul><li>LIRS cache: bugfix for caches that only contain non-resident entries.
322
</li><li>For in-memory databases, queries with a "group by" column that
323 324
    is also a hash index threw a RuntimeException.
</li><li>Improved error message for some syntax errors.
325
</li><li>File system abstraction: if used directly, some file systems did not work correctly
326 327
    with spliced byte buffers (the database engine doesn't use those).
</li><li>To use the MVStore storage engine (which is still work in progress), append

328 329 330
    ";mv_store=true" to the database URL. Using the MVTableEngine when creating the table
    is no longer recommended.
</li><li>To compile user defined functions, the javax.tools.JavaCompiler is now used if available,
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
331
    and no temporary files are created. This should solve problems when
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
332 333
    multiple H2 database concurrently compile the same user defined functions.
    To disable, system the system property "h2.javaSystemCompiler" to false.

334 335 336
</li><li>Concurrently creating function aliases in different databases
    could result in the exception "javac: file not found".
</li><li>The function "regexp_replace" threw the wrong kind of exception if the

337 338
    replacement string was invalid.
</li><li>A checkpoint is now done every MAX_LOG_SIZE / 2 instead of every
339
    MAX_LOG_SIZE, so that the transaction log doesn't grow as large.
340
</li><li>MVStore table engine: new setting "retention_time" to configure the
341 342
    time to retain old data. The default is 45 seconds.
</li><li>The method TableEngine.createTable() now returns a Table object.
343 344 345
</li><li>For read-only databases, for the trace level "debug",
    the trace info is written to the temp directory.
</li><li>Closing the file lock will now wait until the background thread is stopped.

346
</li><li>In version 1.3.172, a performance regression was introduced when
347
    fixing the issue 389 (when there is a multi-column primary key,
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
348 349 350 351
    H2 does not seem to always pick the right index). This was related to
    boosting an index that matches the "order by" column list
    (the wrong index was used in some cases).
</li><li>Improved spatial index and data type.

352
</li><li>Issue 467: OSGi Class Loader (ability to create reference to class
353
    in other ClassLoader, for example in another OSGi bundle).
354 355
</li><li>Queries "group by" that contain a subquery with an aggregate function
    returned the wrong result in some cases.
356
</li><li>Fix bug in unique and non-unique hash indexes which manifested as incorrect results
357 358
    when the search key was a different cardinal type from the table index key.
    e.g. where the one was INT and the other was LONG
359
</li><li>Bug: Changes to the database structure did not result
360
    in the Session query cache being invalidated.
361 362
</li><li>New feature from Davide Cavestro - allow using custom Java object serialization
    engines on a per-DB basis.
363
</li><li>When running the Recover tool on very large (&gt;6G) databases, some statistics were reported with
364
    negative numbers.
365
</li><li>Add a CONTAINS_UNCOMMITTED column to the SESSIONS metadata table, to allow detecting when rogue
366
    sessions are creating large transactions.
367
</li><li>Some small fixes to the GEOMETRY support, patches by Nicolas Fortin.
368
</li><li>The BNF tool and the autocomplete feature are exported in OSGi,

370
</li><li>Fix DROP ALL OBJECTS and DROP SCHEMA in the presence of tables with computed column dependencies.
371 372
</li><li>Session-temporary LOB's could sometimes accumulate, increasing the size of the DB file until shutdown.
    Now they are cleared out at every commit.
