Thomas Mueller committed
21 22 23 24 25 26 27
<ul><li>To compile user defined functions, the javax.tools.JavaCompiler is now used if available,
    and no temporary files are created. 
    This should solve problems when multiple H2 database concurrently compile 
    the same user defined functions.
</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
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
28 29
    replacement string was invalid.
</li><li>A checkpoint is now done every MAX_LOG_SIZE / 2 instead of every
30
    MAX_LOG_SIZE, so that the transaction log doesn't grow as large.
31
</li><li>MVStore table engine: new setting "retention_time" to configure the
32 33
    time to retain old data. The default is 45 seconds.
</li><li>The method TableEngine.createTable() now returns a Table object.
34 35 36
</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.

Thomas Mueller committed
37
</li><li>In version 1.3.172, a performance regression was introduced when
38
    fixing the issue 389 (when there is a multi-column primary key,
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
39 40 41 42
    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.
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
43
</li><li>Issue 467: OSGi Class Loader (ability to create reference to class
44
    in other ClassLoader, for example in another OSGi bundle).
45 46
</li><li>Queries "group by" that contain a subquery with an aggregate function
    returned the wrong result in some cases.
47
</li><li>Fix bug in unique and non-unique hash indexes which manifested as incorrect results
48 49
    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
50
</li><li>Bug: Changes to the database structure did not result
51
    in the Session query cache being invalidated.
52 53
</li><li>New feature from Davide Cavestro - allow using custom Java object serialization
    engines on a per-DB basis.
54 55
</li><li>When running the Recover tool on very large (>6G) databases, some statistics were reported with
    negative numbers.
56
</li><li>Add a CONTAINS_UNCOMMITTED column to the SESSIONS metadata table, to allow detecting when rogue
57
    sessions are creating large transactions.
58
</li><li>Some small fixes to the GEOMETRY support, patches by Nicolas Fortin.
59
</li><li>The BNF tool and the autocomplete feature are exported in OSGi,
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
60
    which makes it possible for smart editors to do autocomplete. Patch from Nicolas Fortin.
61
</li><li>Fix DROP ALL OBJECTS and DROP SCHEMA in the presence of tables with computed column dependencies.
62 63
</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.

noelgrandin committed
64
</li><li>There was a bug where a hash index with more than one column would be silently converted to a regular index.
65 66 67
    It will now throw an exception.
</li><li>Query Statistics: new feature which stores the newest 100 SQL queries executed and their performance data.
    Useful for tracking down badly performing queries.
68
</li><li>Fix an LOB deadlock between reading and updating LOB columns.
69 70
</li><li>Support the JDBC DatabaseMetaData#getClientInfoProperties() method, in the sense of returning an empty result,
    in order to make Websphere happy.
71 72
</li><li>Make Server#openBrowser respect the $BROWSER environment variable. Add "chromium" to the list of browsers tried.
    Patch from Felix Kaiser.

114
    and reading from the LOB at the same time.
115
    Previously it would throw an exception, now it works.
116 117
</li><li>Issue 484: In the H2 Console tool, all schemas starting with "INFO" where hidden.

<h2>Version 1.3.172 (2013-05-25)</h2>
129 130 131
<ul><li>Referential integrity: when adding a referential integrity constraint failed,

<h2>Version 1.3.171 (2013-03-17)</h2>
<ul><li>Security: the TCP server did not correctly restrict access rights of clients in some cases.
    This was specially a problem when using the flag "tcpAllowOthers".

163
</li><li>Issue 249: Improved compatibility with MySQL in the MySQL mode:
164 165 166
    now the methods DatabaseMetaData methods stores*Case*Identifiers return the same as MySQL
    when using the MySQL mode.
</li><li>Issue 434: H2 Console didn't work in the Chrome browser
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
167 168
    due to a wrong viewport argument.
</li><li>There was a possibility that the .lock.db file was not deleted
169
    when the database was closed, which could slow down opening the database.

170
</li><li>The SQL script generated by the "script" command contained
171
    inconsistent newlines on Windows.
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
172
</li><li>When using trace level 4 (SLF4J) in the server mode, a directory "trace.db"
173
    and an empty file was created on the client side. This is no longer made.
174 175
</li><li>Optimize IN(...) queries: there was a bug in version 1.3.170
    if the type of the left hand side didn't match the type of the right hand side. Fixed.
176
</li><li>Optimize IN(...) queries: there was a bug in version 1.3.170 for comparison of the type
177 178
    "X IN(NULL, NULL)". Fixed.
</li><li>Timestamps with timezone that were passed as a string were not always
179 180 181 182
    converted correctly. For example "2012-11-06T23:00:00.000Z" was converted to
    "2012-11-06" instead of to "2012-11-07" in the timezone CET.
    Thanks a lot to Steve Hruda for reporting the problem!
</li><li>New table engine "org.h2.mvstore.db.MVTableEngine"
183 184 185 186 187 188
    that internally uses the MVStore to persist data.
    To try it out, append ";DEFAULT_TABLE_ENGINE=org.h2.mvstore.db.MVTableEngine"
    to the database URL.
    This is still very experimental, and many features are not supported yet.
    The data is stored in a file with the suffix ".mv.db".
</li><li>New connection setting "DEFAULT_TABLE_ENGINE" to use a specific
189
    table engine if none is set explicitly. This is to simplify testing
190
    the MVStore table engine.
191
</li><li>MVStore: encrypted stores are now supported.
192
    Only standardized algorithms are used: PBKDF2, SHA-256, XTS-AES, AES-128.
193
</li><li>MVStore: improved API thanks to Simo Tripodi.
194
</li><li>MVStore: maps can now be renamed.
195
</li><li>MVStore: store the file header also at the end of each chunk,
196 197
    which results in a further reduced number of write operations.
</li><li>MVStore: a map implementation that supports concurrent operations.
198
</li><li>MVStore: unified exception handling; the version is included in the messages.
199
</li><li>MVStore: old data is now retained for 45 seconds by default.
200 201 202 203 204
</li><li>MVStore: compress is now disabled by default, and can be enabled on request.
</li><li>Support ALTER TABLE ADD ... AFTER. Patch from Andrew Gaul (argaul at gmail.com). Fixes issue 401.
</li><li>Improved OSGi support. H2 now registers itself as a DataSourceFactory service. Fixes issue 365.
</li><li>Add a DISK_SPACE_USED system function. Fixes issue 270.
</li><li>Fix a compile-time ambiguity when compiling with JDK7, thanks to a patch from Lukas Eder.
205

209
    suggestion from Mark Addleman.

210 211 212 213
</li><li>Issue 438: JdbcDatabaseMetaData.getSchemas() is no longer supported as of 1.3.169.

218 219 220 221 222 223
<ul><li>Issue 407: The TriggerAdapter didn't work with CLOB and BLOB columns.
</li><li>PostgreSQL compatibility: support for data types BIGSERIAL and SERIAL
    as an alias for AUTO_INCREMENT.
</li><li>Issue 417: H2 Console: the web session timeout didn't work, resulting in a memory leak.
    This was only a problem if the H2 Console was run for a long time and many sessions were opened.
</li><li>Issue 412: Running the Server tool with just the option "-browser" will now log a warning.
224
</li><li>Issue 411: CloseWatcher registration was not concurrency-safe.

<h2>Version 1.3.169 (2012-09-09)</h2>

242
    in the next few weeks because Sonatype has disabled automatic synchronization
243
    from SourceForge (which they call 'legacy sync' now).

Thomas Mueller committed
244
    It will probably take some time until this is sorted out. The H2 jar files are deployed to
245 246 247 248
    http://h2database.com/m2-repo/com/h2database/h2/maven-metadata.xml
    and http://hsql.sourceforge.net/m2-repo/com/h2database/h2/maven-metadata.xml
    as usual.
</li><li>A part of the documentation and the H2 Console has been changed to support the Apple retina display.
249 250 251
</li><li>The CreateCluster tool could not be used if the source database contained a CLOB or BLOB.
    The root cause was that the TCP server did not synchronize on the session, which caused a problem
    when using the exclusive mode.
252
</li><li>Statement.getQueryTimeout(): only the first call to this method will query the database.
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
253
    If the query timeout was changed in another way than calling setQueryTimeout,
254 255 256
    this method will always return the last value. This was changed because Hibernate
    calls getQueryTimeout() a lot.
</li><li>Issue 416: PreparedStatement.setNString throws AbstractMethodError.

Thomas Mueller committed
257
    All implemented JDBC 4 methods that don't break compatibility with Java 5
258 259
    are now included in the default jar file.

260
    (for example "char(nextval(..))" ran "nextval(..)" twice).
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
261
</li><li>The ResultSetMetaData methods getSchemaName and getTableName
262
    could return null instead of "" (an empty string) as specified in the JDBC API.

<h2>Version 1.3.168 (2012-07-13)</h2>
267 268
<ul><li>The message "Transaction log could not be truncated" was sometimes written
    to the .trace.db file even if there was no problem truncating the transaction log.
269
</li><li>New system property "h2.serializeJavaObject" (default: true) that allows to disable
270 271
    serializing Java objects, so that the objects compareTo and toString methods can be used.

273 274 275 276 277
    no longer fails for a read only database.
</li><li>MVCC: concurrently updating a row could result in the row to appear deleted in the second connection,
    if there are multiple unique indexes (or a primary key and at least one unique index).
    Thanks a lot to Teruo for the patch!
</li><li>Fulltext search: in-memory Lucene indexes are now supported.
278
</li><li>Fulltext search: UUID primary keys are now supported.
279
</li><li>Apache Tomcat 7.x will now longer log a warning when unloading the web application, if using a connection pool.

</li><li>When opening a remote session, don't open a temporary file if the trace level is set to zero
282
</li><li>Use HMAC for authenticating remote LOB id's, removing the need for maintaining a cache, and removing the limit
Thomas Mueller's avatar
Thomas Mueller committed
283
    on the number of LOBs per result set.
284 285
</li><li>H2 Console: HTML and XML documents can now be edited in an updatable result set.
    There is (limited) support for editing multi-line documents.

</li><li>Some nested joins could not be executed, for example:
    select * from (select * from (select * from a) a right join b b) c;
</li><li>MS SQL Server compatibility: ISNULL is now an alias for IFNULL.

</li><li>In the trace file, the query execution time was incorrect in some cases, specially
    for the statement SET TRACE_LEVEL_FILE 2.
</li><li>The feature LOG_SIZE_LIMIT that was introduced in version 1.3.165 did not always work
    correctly (specially with regards to multithreading) and has been removed.
    The message "Transaction log could not be truncated" is still written to the .trace.db file
    if required.
</li><li>Then reading from a resource using the prefix "classpath:", the ContextClassLoader
    is now used if the resource can't be read otherwise.
</li><li>DatabaseEventListener now calls setProgress whenever a statement starts and ends.
307
</li><li>DatabaseEventListener now calls setProgress periodically while a statement is running.
308
</li><li>The table INFORMATION_SCHEMA.FUNCTION_ALIASES now includes a column TYPE_NAME.
309
</li><li>Issue 378: when using views, the wrong values were bound to a parameter in some cases.

<ul><li>Indexes on column that are larger than half the page size (wide indexes)

319 320 321
    could sometimes get corrupt, resulting in an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException in PageBtree.getRow
    or "Row not found" in PageBtreeLeaf. Also, such indexes used too much disk space.
</li><li>Server mode: when retrieving more than 64 rows each containing a CLOB or BLOB,
322 323
    the error message "The object is already closed" was thrown.
</li><li>ConvertTraceFile: the time in the trace file is now parsed as a long.

<h2>Version 1.3.165 (2012-03-18)</h2>
329 330
<ul><li>Better string representation for decimal values (for example 0.00000000 instead of 0E-26).
</li><li>Prepared statements could only be re-used if the same data types were used
331 332
    the second time they were executed.
</li><li>In error messages about referential constraint violation, the values are now included.
333
</li><li>SCRIPT and RUNSCRIPT: the password can now be set using a prepared statement.
334 335
    Previously, it was required to be a literal in the SQL statement.
</li><li>MySQL compatibility: SUBSTR with a negative start index now works like MySQL.
336
</li><li>When enabling autocommit, the transaction is now committed (as required by the JDBC API).
337
</li><li>The shell script <code>h2.sh</code> did not work with spaces in the path.
338 339 340
    It also works now with quoted spaces in the argument list.
    Thanks a lot to Shimizu Fumiyuki for the patch!
</li><li>If the transaction log could not be truncated because of an uncommitted transaction,
341 342 343 344 345 346
    now "Transaction log could not be truncated" is written to the .trace.db file.
    Before, the database file was growing and it was hard to find out what the root cause was.
    To avoid the database file from growing, a new feature to automatically rollback the oldest
    transaction is available now. To enable it, append ;LOG_SIZE_LIMIT=32 to the database URL
    (in that case, the oldest session is rolled back if the transaction log is 32 MB).
</li><li>ALTER TABLE ADD can now add more than one column at a time.
347
</li><li>Issue 380: ALTER TABLE ADD FOREIGN KEY with an explicit index didn't verify
348
    the index can be used, which would lead to a NullPointerException later on.

</li><li>Issue 384: the wrong kind of exception (NullPointerException) was thrown in a UNION query
350 351 352
    with an incorrect ORDER BY expression.
</li><li>Issue 362: support LIMIT in UPDATE statements.
</li><li>Browser: if no default browser is set, Google Chrome is now used if available.
353
    If not available, then Konqueror, Netscape, or Opera is used if available (as before).
354 355
</li><li>CSV tool: new feature to disable writing the column header
    (option writeColumnHeader).
356
</li><li>CSV tool: new feature to preserve the case sensitivity of column names
357 358
    (option caseSensitiveColumnNames).
</li><li>PostgreSQL compatibility: LOG(x) is base 10 in the PostgreSQL mode.
