Build Targets
@build_1026_p
The build system can generate smaller jar files as well. The following targets are currently supported:
@build_1025_p
The other targets may be used as well.
@build_1027_li
jarClient: Create the h2client.jar. This only contains the remote JDBC implementation.
@build_1026_h2
@build_1028_li
jarSmall: Create the file h2small.jar. This only contains the embedded database. Debug information is disabled.
@build_1029_li
jarJaqu: Create the file h2jaqu.jar. This only contains the JaQu (Java Query) implementation. All other jar files do not include JaQu.
@build_1030_p
To create the h2client.jar file, go to the directory h2 and execute the following command:
@build_1031_h2
Using Maven 2
@build_1027_h3
@build_1032_h3
Using a Central Repository
@build_1028_p
@build_1033_p
You can include the database in your Maven 2 project as a dependency. Example:
@build_1029_p
@build_1034_p
New versions of this database are first uploaded to http://hsql.sourceforge.net/m2-repo/ and then automatically synchronized with the main maven repository; however after a new release it may take a few hours before they are available there.
@build_1030_h3
@build_1035_h3
Using Snapshot Version
@build_1031_p
@build_1036_p
To build a 'snapshot' H2 .jar file and upload it the to the local Maven 2 repository, execute the following command:
@build_1032_p
@build_1037_p
Afterwards, you can include the database in your Maven 2 project as a dependency:
@build_1033_h2
@build_1038_h2
Translating
@build_1034_p
@build_1039_p
The translation of this software is split into the following parts:
The conversion between UTF-8 and Java encoding (using the \u syntax), as well as the HTML entities (&#..;) is automated by running the tool PropertiesToUTF8. The web site translation is automated as well, using <code>build docs</code> .

Providing Patches
@build_1040_p
@build_1045_p
If you like to provide patches, please consider the following guidelines to simplify merging them:
@build_1041_li
@build_1046_li
Only use Java 1.4 features (not use Java 1.5 or 1.6) (see Environment).
@build_1042_li
@build_1047_li
Follow the coding style used in the project, use Checkstyle (see above) to check the coding style.
@build_1043_li
@build_1048_li
Please provide test cases and integrate them into the test suite. For Java level tests, see src/test/org/h2/test/TestAll.java. For SQL level tests, see src/test/org/h2/test/test.in.txt or testSimple.in.txt
@build_1044_li
@build_1049_li
The test cases should cover at least 90% of the changed/new code; use a code coverage tool to verify that (see above).
@build_1045_li
@build_1050_li
Verify that you did not break other features: Run the test cases by executing build test.
@build_1046_li
@build_1051_li
Provide end user documentation if required (src/docsrc/html/*).
@build_1047_li
@build_1052_li
Document grammar changes in src/main/org/h2/res/help.csv
@build_1048_li
@build_1053_li

@changelog_1075_li
@changelog_1077_li
Triggers are no longer executed when changing the table structure (ALTER TABLE).
@changelog_1076_li
@changelog_1078_li
When setting BLOB or CLOB values larger than 65 KB using a remote connection, temporary files were kept on the client longer than required (until the connection was closed or the object is garbage collected). Now they are removed as soon as the PreparedStatement is closed, or when the value is overwritten.
@changelog_1077_li
@changelog_1079_li
Statements can now be cancelled remotely (when using remote connections).
@changelog_1078_li
@changelog_1080_li

@changelog_1081_li
@changelog_1083_li
H2 is now dual-licensed under the Eclipse Public License (EPL) and the old 'H2 License' (which is basically MPL).
@changelog_1082_li
@changelog_1084_li
Sometimes an exception 'File ID mismatch' or 'try to add a record twice' occurred after large records (8 KB or larger) are updated or deleted. See also http://code.google.com/p/h2database/issues/detail?id=22

Version 1.0.70 (2008-04-20)
@changelog_1087_li
@changelog_1089_li
The plan is to dual-license H2. The additional license is EPL (Eclipse Public License). The current license (MPL, Mozilla Public License) will stay. Current users are not affected because they can keep MPL. EPL is very similar to MPL, the only bigger difference is related to patents (EPL is a bit more business friendly in this regard).

@changelog_1097_li
The code switch tool has been replaced by a simpler tool called SwitchSource that just uses find and replace.
@changelog_1096_li
@changelog_1098_li
Started to write a Ant replacement ('JAnt') that uses pure Java build definitions. Advantages: ability to debug the build, extensible, flexible, no XML, a bit faster. Future plan: support creating custom h2 distributions (for embedded use). Maybe create a new project 'Jant' or 'Javen' if other people are interested.
@changelog_1097_li
@changelog_1099_li
The jar file is now about 10% smaller because the variable debugging info is no longer included. The source file and line number debugging info is still included. If required, the jar file size of the full version can be further reduced to about 720 KB using 'build jarSmall' or even more by removing unneeded components.
@changelog_1098_li
@changelog_1100_li
Added shell scripts run.sh and build.sh. chmod +x is required, but otherwise it should work. Feedback or improvements are welcome!
@changelog_1099_li
@changelog_1101_li
Databases in zip files: large queries are now supported. Temp files are created in the temp directory if required. The documentation how to create the zip file has been corrected.

@changelog_1104_li
@changelog_1106_li
After setting the query timeout and then resetting it, the next query would still timeout. Fixed.
@changelog_1105_li
@changelog_1107_li
Adding a IDENTITY column to a table with data threw a lock timeout.
@changelog_1106_li
@changelog_1108_li
OutOfMemoryError could occur when using EXISTS or IN(SELECT ..).
@changelog_1107_li

@changelog_1114_li
A new Shell tools is now included (org.h2.tools.Shell) to query a database from the command line.
@changelog_1113_li
@changelog_1115_li
The command line options in the tools have changed: instead of '-log true' now '-trace' is used. Also, '-ifExists', '-tcpSSL' and '-tcpAllowOthers' and so on have changed: now the 'true' is no longer needed. The old behavior is still supported.
@changelog_1114_li
@changelog_1116_li
New system property h2.sortNullsHigh to invert the default sorting behavior for NULL. The default didn't change.
@changelog_1115_li
@changelog_1117_li
Performance was very slow when using LOG=2 and deleting or updating all rows of a table in a loop. Fixed.
@changelog_1116_li
@changelog_1118_li
ALTER TABLE or CREATE TABLE now support parameters for the password field.
@changelog_1117_li
@changelog_1119_li
The linear hash has been removed. It was always slower than the b-tree index, and there were some bugs that would be hard to fix.
@changelog_1118_li
@changelog_1120_li
TRACE_LEVEL_ settings are no longer persistent. This was a problem when database initialization code caused a lot of trace output.
@changelog_1119_li
@changelog_1121_li
Fulltext search (native implementation): The words table is no longer an in-memory table because this caused memory problems in some cases.
@changelog_1120_li
@changelog_1122_li
It was possible to create a role with the name as an existing user (but not vice versa). This is not allowed any more.
@changelog_1121_li
@changelog_1123_li
The recovery tool didn't work correctly for tables without rows.
@changelog_1122_li
@changelog_1124_li
For years below 1, the YEAR method didn't return the correct value, and the conversion from date and timestamp to varchar was incorrect.
@changelog_1123_li
@changelog_1125_li
CSVWRITE caused a NullPointerException when not specifying a nullString.
@changelog_1124_li
@changelog_1126_li
When a log file switch occurred just after a truncate table or drop table statement, the database could not be started normally (RECOVER=1 was required). Fixed.
@changelog_1125_li
@changelog_1127_li
When a log file switch occurred in the middle of a sequence flush (sequences are only flushed every 32 values by default), the sequence value was lost. Fixed.
@changelog_1126_li
@changelog_1128_li
Altering a sequence didn't unlock the system table when autocommit switched off.
@changelog_1127_h2
@changelog_1129_h2
Version 1.0.68 (2008-03-18)
@changelog_1128_li
@changelog_1130_li
Very large SELECT DISTINCT and UNION EXCEPT queries are now supported, however this feature is disabled by default. To enable it, set the system property h2.maxMemoryRowsDistinct to a lower value, for example 10000.
@changelog_1129_li
@changelog_1131_li
A error is now thrown when trying to call a method inside a trigger that implicitly commits the current transaction, if an object is locked.
@changelog_1130_li
@changelog_1132_li
Unused LOB files were deleted much too late. Now they are deleted if no longer referenced in memory.
@changelog_1131_li
@changelog_1133_li
ALTER SEQUENCE and ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN RESTART can now be used inside a transaction.
@changelog_1132_li
@changelog_1134_li
New system property h2.aliasColumnName. When enabled, aliased columns (as in SELECT ID AS I FROM TEST) return the real table and column name in ResultSetMetaData.getTableName() and getColumnName(). This is disabled by default for compatibility with other databases (HSQLDB, Apache Derby, PostgreSQL, some version of MySQL). In version 1.1 this setting will be enabled.
@changelog_1133_li
@changelog_1135_li
When using encrypted databases, and using the wrong file password, the log file was renamed if the database was not already open. Fixed.
@changelog_1134_li
@changelog_1136_li
Improved performance when using lob files in directories (however this is still disabled by default)
@changelog_1135_li
@changelog_1137_li
H2 Console: autocomplete didn't work with very large scripts. Fixed.
@changelog_1136_li
@changelog_1138_li
Fulltext search: new method SEARCH_DATA that returns the column names and primary keys as arrays.
@changelog_1137_li
@changelog_1139_li
New experimental optimization for GROUP BY queries if an index can be used that matches the group by columns. To enable this optimization, set the system property h2.optimizeGroupSorted to true.
@changelog_1138_li
@changelog_1140_li
When using multi-version concurrency (MVCC=TRUE), duplicate rows could appear in the result set when running queries with uncommitted changes in the same session.
@changelog_1139_li
@changelog_1141_li
H2 Console: remote connections were very slow because getHostName/getRemoteHost was used. Fixed (now using getHostAddress/getRemoteAddr.

Why is Opening my Database Slow?
@faq_1057_p
@faq_1058_p
If it takes a long time to open a database, in most cases it was not closed the last time. This is specially a problem for larger databases. To close a database, close all connections to it before the application ends, or execute the command SHUTDOWN. The database is also closed when the virtual machine exits normally by using a shutdown hook. However killing a Java process or calling Runtime.halt will prevent this.
@faq_1058_p
@faq_1059_p
To find out what the problem is, open the database in embedded mode using the H2 Console. This will print progress information. If you have many 'Creating index' lines it is an indication that the database was not closed the last time.
@faq_1059_p
@faq_1060_p
Other possible reasons are: the database is very big (many GB), or contains linked tables that are slow to open.

@faq_1061_h3
Is the GCJ Version Stable? Faster?
@faq_1061_p
@faq_1062_p
The GCJ version is not as stable as the Java version. When running the regression test with the GCJ version, sometimes the application just stops at what seems to be a random point without error message. Currently, the GCJ version is also slower than when using the Sun VM. However, the startup of the GCJ version is faster than when using a VM.

JaQu does not require any kind of configuration is you want to use the default mapping. To define table indices, or if you want to map a class to a table with a different name, or a field to a column with another name, create a function called 'define' in the data class. Example:
@jaqu_1023_p
The method 'define()' contains the mapping definition. It is called once when the class is used for the first time. Like annotations, the mapping is defined in the class itself. Unlike when using annotations, the compiler can check the syntax even for multi-column objects (multi-column indexes, multi-column primary keys and so on). This solution is very flexible because the definition is written in regular Java code: Unlike when using annotations, your code can select the right configuration depending on the environment if required.

To close a database, close all connections to it before the application ends, or execute the command SHUTDOWN. The database is also closed when the virtual machine exits normally by using a shutdown hook. However killing a Java process or calling Runtime.halt will prevent this.

#JaQu does not require any kind of configuration is you want to use the default mapping. To define table indices, or if you want to map a class to a table with a different name, or a field to a column with another name, create a function called 'define' in the data class. Example:

This solution is very flexible because the definition is written in regular Java code: Unlike when using annotations, your code can select the right configuration depending on the environment if required.
