The Windows .bat files did not contain CR+LF.
MS SQL Server compatibility: support "N" in front of string literals ("National Language" strings). Issue 240.
@changelog_1005_li
The LOB storage (when the system property h2.lobInDatabase is set) is now only initialized when needed.
CAST: when converting a string to binary, it is hex encoded (every byte two characters); a hex string can be converted to a number by first converting it to binary. Examples: CAST(CAST('FFFF' AS BINARY) AS INT) = 65535, CAST(65535 AS BINARY) = '0000FFFF'.
@changelog_1006_li
The index condition columnName IS NULL was not efficient when using a clustered index.
When a domain (user defined data type) contained a user defined function, the database could not be opened.
@changelog_1007_li
CAST('011' AS INT) will no longer use decode the value as an octal number (using Integer.decode) but now use Integer.parseInt. The same logic applied to byte, short, and long. This also means that trying to convert hex numbers (0x...) with CAST now fails.

In memory database: outer joins with a condition "column is null" could return the wrong result.
@changelog_1009_li
@changelog_1014_li
Temporary files were not created in the temporary directory of the system, but in the current working directory. This affected temporary undo log files for read-only databases, temporary files for large result sets when using read-only databases, and temporary LOB files when storing LOBs in the database (system property h2.lobInDatabase). When the setting h2.lobInDatabase is not set, temporary LOB files are still stored in a sub-directory (.lobs.db/) of the current working directory.
@changelog_1010_li

In some cases (specially when using a small cache size or a large database over 1 GB) for some operations like ALTER TABLE the data was written before the transaction log entries, which could cause a corrupt database if the process was killed during the ALTER TABLE operation. Thanks a lot to Victor Pyankov for helping solve this problem!

The Recover tool could throw a ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException when trying to recover a corrupt database file.
@changelog_1039_li
@changelog_1044_li
The SCRIPT command and tool now uses the default file encoding for the system now instead of UTF-8 (as before). In most cases, this will not affect existing applications, as the encoding only affects how SQL identifiers (table names and so on) that contain special characters are stored. Table data is escaped, and therefore is no problem.
@changelog_1040_li
@changelog_1045_li
The SCRIPT command and tool now also support the CHARSET option (like RUNSCRIPT).

New experimental database file locking mechanism "FS" to use native file locking (no *.lock.db file is created in this case, and no background thread is started). This mechanism may not work on all systems (on some systems it's possible to lock the same file multiple times within the same virtual machine, and on some system native file locking is not working or unlocking is not working).

Lucene 3.x support was added in the source code, however it is not yet enabled by default and is not yet supported when using the default h2 jar file. To enable Lucene 3.x support, the source code of H2 needs to be switched using <code>./build.sh -Dlucene=3 switchSource</code>, and then re-compile. To switch the source code back use <code>./build.sh -Dlucene=2 switchSource</code> (replace ./build.sh with build.bat on Windows). The plan is to use Lucene 3 by default in H2 version 1.3.x. Issue 147.

MVCC: when trying to insert two rows with the same key from two connections, the second connection immediately threw the exception "Unique index or primary key violation".

Server mode: if the client ran with a different timezone setting than the server, date values got shifted by the difference between the timezones. This problem affected the data types DATE, TIME, and TIMESTAMP, when using PreparedStatement.setDate / setTime / setTimestamp and ResultSet.getDate / getTime / getTimestamp. To solve the problem, both the client and the server need to be updated (otherwise the old transfer protocol is used).

Memory mapped files: There was a bug in version 1.2.139 so that memory mapped files could only be used together with split, for example: split:nioMapped: - the problem is now solved. It is still a good idea to use split:nioMapped: to work around the 2 GB limitation of memory mapped files.

New experimental query cache. The cache is only used if the SQL statement and all parameters match. Each session has it's own cache with the given size. Only the last returned result per query is cached. Only SELECT statements are cached (excluding UNION and FOR UPDATE statements). This works for both statements and prepared statement. To enable, set the system property h2.commandCacheSize to a value larger than 0. There is currently no plan to enable this option by default in future versions.

@changelog_1150_li
Cluster: non-admin users couldn't connect to the cluster and couldn't disable the cluster. Issue 201.

@changelog_1160_li
When using ORDER BY and there are both ascending and descending indexes, the database used the first index even when the second one could be used for sorting.
@changelog_1156_li
@changelog_1161_li
Conditions of the form columnName IS NULL now use an index. To disable this feature, set the system property h2.optimizeIsNull to false.
@changelog_1157_li
@changelog_1162_li
H2 Console: when the settings were not stored yet (for example when running for the first time), the last recently used settings were not stored. A workaround was to create the file ".h2.server.properties" manually in the current user home directory, with the contents: webAllowOthers=false, webPort=8082, webSSL=false, 0=Generic H2 (Embedded)|org.h2.Driver|jdbc\:h2\:~/test|sa (where a comma is a newline).
@changelog_1158_li
@changelog_1163_li
The source code is now switched to Java 6 (JDK 1.6) by default. Java 5 (JDK 1.5) is still supported, and the jar file is still compiled for Java 5.
@changelog_1159_li
@changelog_1164_li
The BOM (the byte-order-mark) character 0xfeff at the beginning of the file is ignored. This is for compatibility with Microsoft Excel.
@changelog_1160_li
@changelog_1165_li
When opening an existing database, the cache size is set to at most half the amount of memory available for the virtual machine (Runtime.getRuntime().maxMemory()), even if the cache size setting stored in the database is larger. Setting the cache size in the database URL or explicitly using SET CACHE_SIZE overrides this value (even if larger than the physical memory).
@changelog_1161_li
@changelog_1166_li
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.SETTINGS: the cache size is now returned in KB.
@changelog_1162_li
@changelog_1167_li
New system property h2.selectForUpdateMvcc, the default is false (the feature is disabled). When enabled, SELECT ... FOR UPDATE only locks the selected rows in the MVCC mode. Aggregate or GROUP BY queries are not allowed in this case.

There was a possible Java level deadlock when opening an uninitialized database and using a file system that also opened a database.
@changelog_1177_li
@changelog_1182_li
When killing the process while the database was writing a checkpoint, while it was closing, or while running recovery (while removing temporary tables from a previous run), the database could become corrupt. A new test case has been implemented to ensure such problems can not occur in the future.
@changelog_1178_li
@changelog_1183_li
File system: new method FileSystem.setReadOnly.
@changelog_1179_li
@changelog_1184_li
The page size for new databases can now be set in the database URL using ;PAGE_SIZE=512. Currently this feature is only used to simplify testing.
@changelog_1180_li
@changelog_1185_li
New system property h2.functionsInSchema (default is false). If enabled, the SCRIPT statement always includes the schema name in the CREATE ALIAS statement (even if the schema is PUBLIC). This is not backward compatible with H2 versions 1.2.134 and older.
@changelog_1181_li
@changelog_1186_li
Functions: it is no longer required to add a space after a comma in the parameter list. Example: CREATE ALIAS PARSE_INT FOR "java.lang.Integer.parseInt(java.lang.String,int)"
@changelog_1182_li
@changelog_1187_li
Functions now reside within a schema, similar to sequences. If you do create such functions in schemas other than PUBLIC, then the database can not be opened with older versions of H2.
@changelog_1183_li
@changelog_1188_li
Cluster: after a cluster node failed, the second cluster node can now be re-created and started without having to stop the first cluster node, and without having to stop running applications. To do that, append ;AUTO_RECONNECT=TRUE to the database URL.
@changelog_1184_li
@changelog_1189_li
Auto-reconnect: if another connection uses the database in exclusive mode then this connection will try to re-connect until the exclusive mode ends. This is important when using the cluster mode.
@changelog_1185_li
@changelog_1190_li
SET EXCLUSIVE now supports 0 (disable), 1 (enable), and 2 (enable and close all other connections).
@changelog_1186_li
@changelog_1191_li
Installing the H2 as a service should now work on Windows 7. The batch files now explicitly set the directory using pushd "%~dp0".
@changelog_1187_li
@changelog_1192_li
Temporary tables can now be 'cached', that means indexes of temporary tables can be persisted. This enables very large temporary tables (both local and global).
@changelog_1188_li
@changelog_1193_li
The CreateCluster tool now sets the source database in exclusive mode before copying data to the new database.
@changelog_1189_li
@changelog_1194_li
The H2 Console now stream results one statement / result set at a time (using chunked transfer encoding). To disable, set the system property h2.consoleStream to false. This feature is not supported when using a servlet container.
@changelog_1190_li
@changelog_1195_li
The H2 Console did not call the CreateCluster tool with the correctly escaped parameters.
@changelog_1191_li
@changelog_1196_li
Improved PostgreSQL compatibility for ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN.
@changelog_1192_li
@changelog_1197_li
Commas at the end of INSERT ... VALUES (), (), are now supported.
@changelog_1193_li
@changelog_1198_li
The H2 Console "Start Browser" button now works even when the IP address changes while the tool runs (for example, because a wireless connection breaks, or when enabling / disabling the network connection).
@changelog_1194_li
@changelog_1199_li
When casting from float or double to BigDecimal, the result was sometimes unexpected, because "new BigDecimal(double val)" was used. Now "BigDecimal.valueOf(double val)" and "new BigDecimal(Float.toString(f))" are used. But it is still not recommended to use float or double for currency values (see data type documentation).
@changelog_1195_li
@changelog_1200_li
Global temporary tables are now deleted when closing the database. Before, they were deleted when opening the database the next time.
@changelog_1196_li
@changelog_1201_li
UNIQUE was not listed as a keyword.
@changelog_1197_li
@changelog_1202_li
Improved error message when an non-SQL-exception occurred in a user defined function. The method name and parameters are included in the error message.
@changelog_1198_li
@changelog_1203_li
For some queries, the exception did not include the SQL statement. Example: select x from system_range(1, 2) group by 'a'.
@changelog_1199_li
@changelog_1204_li
The Shell tool will execute SQL statements passed as using the command line parameter -sql.
@changelog_1200_li
@changelog_1205_li
If InetAddress.getLocalHost() fails, the database should now throw an exception.
@changelog_1201_li

@changelog_1213_li
ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN: changing the data type of a column no longer makes it nullable.
@changelog_1209_li
@changelog_1214_li
When using AUTO_SERVER=TRUE, the server is now started as a daemon thread. This was a problem when using Tomcat and a connection pool.
@changelog_1210_li
@changelog_1215_li
Servers can now be started as a daemon thread using the command line options -tcpDaemon, -pgDaemon, and -webDaemon.
@changelog_1211_li

H2 Console: the built-in commands are now documented.
@changelog_1212_li
@changelog_1217_li
REPLACE: if any parameter is null, the result is null.
@changelog_1213_li
@changelog_1218_li
Queries with DISTINCT and ORDER BY will now use the index on ORDER BY if possible. This is specially important for queries used inside IN(SELECT ...).
@changelog_1214_li
@changelog_1219_li
The new statement EXPLAIN ANALYZE executes the statement, and displays the query plan with the actual row scan count for each table.
@changelog_1215_li
@changelog_1220_li
H2 Console: the auto-complete feature didn't quote column names that need quoting. Issue 186.
@changelog_1216_li
@changelog_1221_li
The experimental LOB storage mechanism now supports all features of the old one. To use it, set the system property "h2.lobInDatabase" to "true". If you have used this feature in version 1.2.133, you need to export and re-import the database using SCRIPT / RUNSCRIPT.
@changelog_1217_li
@changelog_1222_li
The functions isBeforeFirst() and isAfterLast() were not compliant to the JDBC spec. If the ResultSet contains no rows, they must return false. Fixed.
@changelog_1218_li
@changelog_1223_li
Filesystem parameters like "split:" didn't work in server mode with baseDir set.
@changelog_1219_li
@changelog_1224_li
If baseDir is set, and a database name is given which points to a directory outside the baseDir (eg. "../dbname"), an exception is thrown.

@changelog_1225_h2
Version 1.2.133 (2010-04-10)
@changelog_1221_li
@changelog_1226_li
A new experimental LOB storage mechanism is available. When enabled, CLOB and BLOB data is stored in hidden tables in the database. To use it, set the system property "h2.lobInDatabase" to "true". Compression is not yet implemented. Duplicate objects are only stored once. Usually writing is slower, but reading is faster (mainly because of caching).
@changelog_1222_li
@changelog_1227_li
The Shell tool threw a NumberFormatException on a empty statement.
@changelog_1223_li
@changelog_1228_li
The h2small-*.jar did not support "drop all objects delete files". Now it is supported (the DeleteDbFiles tool is now included).
@changelog_1224_li
@changelog_1229_li
Operations that don't fit in memory are now faster. Temporary file handling was changed.
@changelog_1225_li
@changelog_1230_li
The default maximum log stream size is now 2 MB. This is a good value according to some performance tests.
@changelog_1226_li
@changelog_1231_li
New system property "h2.syncMethod" to configure what method to call when closing the database, on checkpoint, and on CHECKPOINT SYNC. The default is "sync" which calls RandomAccessFile.getFD().sync().
@changelog_1227_li
@changelog_1232_li
ROWNUM could not be used for pagination. The follow query returned no rows: select x from (select *, rownum as r from system_range(1, 3)) where r=2;
@changelog_1228_li
@changelog_1233_li
Workaround for a java.sql.Date issue: years above 9999 are not formatted correctly. When calling ResultSet.getString() on a date value, an alternative formatting algorithm is used.
@changelog_1229_li
@changelog_1234_li
Prepared statements with nested subqueries did not always return the correct result. Example: select ?, ?, (select count(*) from test t, (select id from test where 0=?) t2 where t2.id=t.id) from test

Version 1.2.132 (2010-03-21)
@changelog_1235_li
@changelog_1240_li
The implementation of a Java to C (source code level) converter has been started. The plan is: it should be possible to convert H2 (or a part of it) to C so that the database can be run without a JVM. This will be a long term project (it may take a year or so).
@changelog_1236_li
@changelog_1241_li
User defined table implementation can now be used using CREATE TABLE ... ENGINE. Thanks to Sergi Vladykin for implementing this feature!
@changelog_1237_li

Improved MS SQL Server compatibility: support string concatenation using "+". Thanks to Stepan for the patch!
@changelog_1238_li
@changelog_1243_li
When using the multi-threaded mode, running ANALYZE concurrently in multiple connections could throw an exception.
@changelog_1239_li

The MERGE statement is now about 30% faster when using a PreparedStatement.
@changelog_1240_li
@changelog_1245_li
Multi-column indexes where the second or later column was descending did not always produce correct results (rows were missing in the result set, or the result set was empty).
@changelog_1241_li
@changelog_1246_li
When using large transactions or a small log size, the database could get very slow (profiling shows the hotspot is in FileObjectDisk.sync()).

@changelog_1254_li
Older versions of H2 (version 1.2.127 and older) could not connect to a new version (version 1.2.129 and newer). The connection blocked when trying to connect. Now the connection no longer blocks, instead a SQL exception is thrown.
@changelog_1250_li
@changelog_1255_li
In versions 1.2.129 and 1.2.130, a database could not be opened sometimes after dropping tables or indexes, and then creating new indexes for existing tables. The exception contained the text "parent not found" (version 1.2.129) or "Table not found" (version 1.2.130).
@changelog_1251_li
@changelog_1256_li
After the database was closed, a null pointer exception could occur in Database.flush.

Creating a database was delayed about 2 seconds if the directory didn't exist.
@changelog_1264_li

Hash indexes now are only used for single column indexes.
@changelog_1270_li
@changelog_1275_li
The cache types WEAK_* and TQ are no longer supported. A weak reference cache never frees up memory so it's the same as having a very large cache size. The TQ cache was not included in the jar file since a longer time, and was not tested.

LIKE: any letter is now allowed after the escape character (which is still '\' by default).

Trigger that are called before a select statement are now supported. This allows to create tables that work like materialized views.
@changelog_1358_li
@changelog_1363_li
Non-row based triggers were called even if the action didn't match the declared action (INSERT triggers were also called when deleting rows). This has been changed. The MERGE statement calls both INSERT and DELETE triggers.
@changelog_1359_li
@changelog_1364_li
Statements with IN(..) conditions could produce the wrong result or a data conversion error (since version 1.2.120). Examples: index on id, name, condition: id=1 and name in('Hello', 'x'); index on id, query: select * from (select * from test) where id=1 and name in('Hello', 'World').

The CompressTool was not multithreading safe.

@@ -11000,7 +11018,7 @@ Date and Time
Date, time and timestamp values support ISO 8601 formatting, including time zone:
@tutorial_1301_p
If the time zone is not set, the value is parsed using the current time zone setting of the system. Date and time information is stored in H2 database files in local time. If the database is opened using another system time zone, the date and time will change accordingly. If you want to move a database from one time zone to the other and don't want this to happen, you need to create a SQL script file using the <code>SCRIPT</code> command or <code>Script</code> tool, and then load the database using the <code>RUNSCRIPT</code> command or the <code>RunScript</code> tool in the new time zone.
If the time zone is not set, the value is parsed using the current time zone setting of the system. Date and time information is stored in H2 database files without time zone information. If the database is opened using another system time zone, the date and time will be the same. That means if you store the value '2000-01-01 12:00:00' in one time zone, then close the database and open the database again in a different time zone, you will also get '2000-01-01 12:00:00'. Please note that changing the time zone after the H2 driver is loaded is not supported.

If you want to move a database from one time zone to the other and don't want this to happen, you need to create a SQL script file using the <code>SCRIPT</code> command or <code>Script</code> tool, and then load the database using the <code>RUNSCRIPT</code> command or the <code>RunScript</code> tool in the new time zone.
