1. About This Document

This document describes how to use the Trafodion JDBC Type 4 Driver (subsequently called the Type 4 driver). This driver provides Java applications running on a foreign platform with JDBC access to Trafodion.

1.1. Intended Audience

This Trafodion JDBC Type 4 Driver Programmer’s Reference Guide is for experienced Java programmers who want to access Trafodion SQL databases.

This document assumes you are already familiar with the Java documentation, which is located at http://docs.oracle.com/en/java/.

1.2. New and Changed Information

This is a new manual.

1.3. Notation Conventions

This list summarizes the notation conventions for syntax presentation in this manual.

  • UPPERCASE LETTERS

    Uppercase letters indicate keywords and reserved words. Type these items exactly as shown. Items not enclosed in brackets are required.

    SELECT
  • lowercase letters

    Lowercase letters, regardless of font, indicate variable items that you supply. Items not enclosed in brackets are required.

    file-name
  • [ ] Brackets

    Brackets enclose optional syntax items.

    DATETIME [start-field TO] end-field

    A group of items enclosed in brackets is a list from which you can choose one item or none.

    The items in the list can be arranged either vertically, with aligned brackets on each side of the list, or horizontally, enclosed in a pair of brackets and separated by vertical lines.

    For example:

    DROP SCHEMA schema [CASCADE]
    DROP SCHEMA schema [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]
  • { } Braces

    Braces enclose required syntax items.

    FROM { grantee [, grantee ] ... }

    A group of items enclosed in braces is a list from which you are required to choose one item.

    The items in the list can be arranged either vertically, with aligned braces on each side of the list, or horizontally, enclosed in a pair of braces and separated by vertical lines.

    For example:

    INTERVAL { start-field TO end-field }
    { single-field }
    INTERVAL { start-field TO end-field | single-field }
  • | Vertical Line

    A vertical line separates alternatives in a horizontal list that is enclosed in brackets or braces.

{expression | NULL}
  • … Ellipsis

    An ellipsis immediately following a pair of brackets or braces indicates that you can repeat the enclosed sequence of syntax items any number of times.

    ATTRIBUTE[S] attribute [, attribute] ...
    {, sql-expression } ...

    An ellipsis immediately following a single syntax item indicates that you can repeat that syntax item any number of times.

    For example:

    expression-n ...
  • Punctuation

    Parentheses, commas, semicolons, and other symbols not previously described must be typed as shown.

    DAY (datetime-expression)
    @script-file

    Quotation marks around a symbol such as a bracket or brace indicate the symbol is a required character that you must type as shown.

    For example:

    "{" module-name [, module-name] ... "}"
  • Item Spacing

    Spaces shown between items are required unless one of the items is a punctuation symbol such as a parenthesis or a comma.

    DAY (datetime-expression) DAY(datetime-expression)

    If there is no space between two items, spaces are not permitted. In this example, no spaces are permitted between the period and any other items:

    myfile.sh
  • Line Spacing

    If the syntax of a command is too long to fit on a single line, each continuation line is indented three spaces and is separated from the preceding line by a blank line.

    This spacing distinguishes items in a continuation line from items in a vertical list of selections.

    match-value [NOT] LIKE _pattern
       [ESCAPE esc-char-expression]

2. Introduction

This document describes how to use the Trafodion JDBC Type 4 Driver. This driver provides Java applications running on a foreign platform with JDBC access to Trafodion SQL databases on the Trafodion.

Supported Java Releases: The Type 4 driver requires Java enabled platforms that support JDK 1.4.1 or higher.

2.1. Type 4 Driver API Package

The Type 4 driver package, org.trafodion.jdbc.t4, is shipped with the driver software. For class and method descriptions, see the Trafodion JDBC Type 4 Driver API Reference.

The Trafodion JDBC Type 4 Driver (hereafter, Type 4 driver) implements JDBC technology that conforms to the standard JDBC 3.0 Data Access API.

To obtain detailed information on the standard JDBC API, download the JDBC API documentation: http://docs.oracle.com/en/java/.

2.2. Installation

3. Accessing Trafodion SQL Databases

3.1. Data Sources

The term data source logically refers to a database or other data storage entity. A JDBC (client) data source is physically a Java object that contains properties such as the URL of the physical database, the catalog to use when connecting to this database, and the schema to use when connecting to this database. The JDBC data source also contains methods for obtaining a JDBC connection to the underlying database.

3.1.1. JDBC Data Source (client-side)

All JDBC data source classes implement either the javax.sql.DataSource interface or the javax.sql.ConnectionPoolDataSource interface. The Type 4 driver data source classes are org.trafodion.jdbc.t4.HPT4DataSource and org.trafodion.jdbc.t4.HPT4ConnectionPoolDataSource. (These classes are defined by the JDBC 3.0 specification.)

Typically, a user or system administrator uses a tool to create a data source, and then registers the data source by using a JNDI service provider. At run time, a user application typically retrieves the data source through JNDI, and uses the data source’s methods to establish a connection to the underlying database.

A DataSource object maps to an instance of a database. In the Type 4 driver product, the DataSource object acts as an interface between the application code and the database and enables connection with a DCS (Data Connectivity Services) data source.

3.2. Security

Clients connect to the Trafodion platform with a valid user name and password, using standard JDBC 3.0 APIs. An application can make multiple connections using different user IDs, and creating different Connection objects.

The Type 4 driver provides for user name and password authentication. The password is encrypted.

3.3. Connection by Using the DataSource Interface

The javax.sql.DataSource interface is the preferred way to establish a connection to the database because this interface enhances the application portability. Portability is achieved by allowing the application to use a logical name for a data source instead of providing driver-specific information in the application. A logical name is mapped to a javax.sql.DataSource object through a naming service that uses the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI). Using this DataSource method is particularly recommended for application servers.

When an application requests a connection by using the getConnection method in the DataSource, then the method returns a Connection object.

A DataSource object is a factory for Connection objects. An object that implements the DataSource interface is typically registered with a JNDI service provider.

3.3.1. Overview of Tasks to Deploy DataSource Objects

Before an application can connect to a DataSource object, typically the system administrator deploys the DataSource object so that the application programmers can start using it.

Data source properties are usually set by a system administrator using a GUI tool as part of the installation of the data source. Users to the data source do not get or set properties. Management tools can get at properties by using introspection.

Tasks involved in creating and registering a database object are:

  1. Creating an instance of the DataSource class.

  2. Setting the properties of the DataSource object.

  3. Registering the DataSource object with a naming service that uses the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) API.

An instance of the DataSource class and the DataSource object properties are usually set by an application developer or system administrator using a GUI tool as part of the installation of the data source. If you are using an installed data source, then see Programmatically Creating an Instance of the DataSource Class.

The subsequent topics show an example of performing these tasks programmatically.

For more information about using data sources, see Connecting with DataSource Objects in the JDBC™ Database Access: Table of Contents documentation or other information available in the field.

3.3.2. DataSource Object Properties

A DataSource object has properties that identify and describe the actual data source that the object represents. These properties include such information as the URL (the primary IP address or host name of the database), the database schema and catalog names, the location of the database server, the name of the database, and so forth.

For details about Type 4 driver properties that you can use with the DataSource object, see Type 4 Driver Properties.

3.3.3. Programmatically Creating an Instance of the DataSource Class

A JDBC application can set DataSource properties programmatically and register with a DataSource object. To get or set DataSource object properties programmatically, use the appropriate getter or setter methods on the HPT4DataSource object or the HPT4ConnectionPoolDataSource object.

Example

HPT4DataSource temp = new HPT4DataSource() ;
temp.setCatalog( "TRAFODION" ) ;

In the following example, the code fragment illustrates the methods that a DataSource object ds needs to include if the object supports the serverDataSource property ds.setServerDataSource( "my_server_datasource" ). In this example, the code shows setting properties for the HPT4DataSource object to use the Type 4 driver to access a Trafodion database:

HPT4DataSource ds = new HPT4DataSource() ;

ds.setUrl( "jdbc:t4jdbc://<primary IP addr or host name>:2300/" );
ds.setCatalog( "TRAFODION" ) ;
ds.setSchema( "myschema" ) ;
ds.setUser( "gunnar" ) ;
ds.setPassword( "my_userpassword" ) ;

// Properties relevant for Type 4 connection pooling.
// Set ds.setMaxPoolSize(-1) for turning OFF connection pooling
ds.setMaxPoolSize( "10000" ) ;
ds.setMinPoolSize( "1000" ) ;

// Properties relevant for Type 4 statement pooling.
// Set ds.setMaxStatement(0) for turning statement pooling OFF
// Statement pooling is enabled only when connection pooling is
// enabled.
ds.setMaxStatements( "7000" ) ;

This technique essentially builds a properties file. For more information, see Creating and Using a Properties File.

3.3.4. Programmatically Registering the DataSource Object

In the following example, the code shows how to register, programmatically, the HPT4DataSource object ds that was created using the preceding code with JNDI.

java.util.Hashtable env = new java.util.Hashtable() ;
env.put( Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "Factory class name here" ) ;

javax.naming.Context ctx = new javax.naming.InitialContext( env ) ;
ctx.rebind( "myDataSource", ds ) ;

3.3.5. Retrieving a DataSource Instance by Using JNDI and Connecting to the Data Source

Typically, the JDBC application looks up the data source JNDI name from a context object. Once the application has the DataSource object, then the application does a getConnection() call on the data source and gets a connection.

The steps that JDBC application does to connect to and use the data source associated with the database are listed below together with the application code to perform the operation.

  1. Import the packages.

    import javax.naming.* ;
    import java.sql.* ;
    import javax.sql.DataSource ;
  2. Create the initial context.

    Hashtable env = new Hashtable() ;
    env.put( Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.sun.jndi.fscontext.RefFSContextFactory" ) ;
    try
    {
       Context ctx = new InitialContext( env ) ;
    }
    catch( ... )
    {
    ...
    }
  3. Look up the JNDI name associated with the data source myDataSource, where myDataSource is the logical name that will be associated with the real-world data source - server.

    DataSource ds = (DataSource)ctx.lookup( "myDataSource" ) ;
  4. Create the connection using the data source.

    con = ds.getConnection() ;
  5. Do work with the connection. The following statements are just a simple example.

    stmt = con.createStatement() ;
    try
    {
       stmt.executeUpdate( "drop table tdata" ) ;
    }
    catch ( SQLException e ) {}

3.3.6. Specifying the Properties File that Configures the Data Source

To use the properties file method to configure a DataSource object, the properties file must exist on disk and contain the property_name=property_value pairs that configure the data source. See Creating and Using a Properties File for more information about creating this file.

When the JDBC application makes the connection, then the application should pass the properties file as a command-line parameter:

java -Dhpt4jdbc.properties=<path of properties file on disk>

3.4. Connection by Using the DriverManager Class

The java.sql.DriverManager class is widely used to get a connection, but is less portable than the DataSource class. The DriverManager class works with the Driver interface to manage the set of drivers loaded. When an application issues a request for a connection using the DriverManager.getConnection method and provides a URL, the DriverManager finds a suitable driver that recognizes this URL and obtains a database connection using that driver.

org.trafodion.jdbc.t4.T4Driver is the Type 4 driver class that implements the java.sql.Driver interface.

3.4.1. Loading and Registering the Driver

Before connecting to the database, the application loads the Driver class and registers the Type 4 driver with the DriverManager class in one of the following ways:

  • Specifies the Type 4 driver class in the -Djdbc.drivers option in the command line of the Java program:

    -Djdbc.drivers=org.trafodion.jdbc.t4.T4Driver
  • Uses the Class.forName method programmatically within the application:

    Class.forName("org.trafodion.jdbc.t4.T4Driver")
  • Adds the Type 4 driver class to the java.lang.System property jdbc.drivers property within the application:

    jdbc.drivers=org.trafodion.jdbc.t4.T4Driver

3.4.2. Establishing the Connection

The DriverManager.getConnection method accepts a string containing a Type 4 driver URL. The JDBC URL for the Type 4 driver is

jdbc:t4jdbc://<ip addr or host name>:23400/[:][property=value[;property2=value2]...]
Parameter Usage

<ip addr or host name>

The primary IP address or host name for the Trafodion database.

23400

The port number for the Trafodion SQL database.

property = value and property2=value2

Specifies a Type 4 driver property name-property value pair. The pairs must be separated by a semicolon (;). For example, T4LogLevel=ALL;T4LogFile=temp1.log.

For information about the properties file, see Type 4 Driver Properties.

To establish a connection, the JDBC application can use this code:

Class.forName( "org.trafodion.jdbc.t4.T4Driver" ) ; //loads the driver

String url = "jdbc:hpt4jdbc://<database primary IP address>:23400/"

Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection( url, "userID", "Passwd" ) ;

The variable con represents a connection to the data source that can be used to create and execute SQL statements.

3.4.3. Guidelines for Connections Using the Driver Manager

  • The Type 4 driver defines a set of properties that you can use to configure the driver. For detailed information about these properties, see Type 4 Driver Properties.

  • Java applications can specify the properties in these ways (listed in the order of precedence):

    1. Using the java.util.Properties parameter in the getConnection method of DriverManager class.

    2. Using the database URL in the DriverManager.getconnection method, where the URL is:

      jdbc:t4jdbc://<ip addr or host name>:23400/:property=value

      <ip addr or host name> is the primary IP address or host name for the Trafodion database.

    3. Using a properties file for the JDBC driver. The properties file is passed as a command-line parameter. The format to enter the properties file in the command line is:

      -Dt4jdbc.properties=<path of properties file on disk>

      For example, -Dt4jdbc.properties=C:\temp\t4props

      For information about the properties file, see Creating and Using a Properties File.

    4. Using JDBC properties with the -D option in the command line. If used, this option applies to all JDBC connections using the DriverManager within the Java application. The format in the command line is:

      -Dt4jdbc.property_name=<property value>

      For example, -Dt4jdbc.maxStatements=1024

3.5. Connection Pooling

The Type 4 driver provides an implementation of connection pooling, where a cache of physical database connections are assigned to a client session and reused for the database activity. If connection pooling is active, connections are not physically closed. The connection is returned to its connection pool when the Connection.close() method is called. The next time a connection is requested by the client, the driver will return the pooled connection, and not a new physical connection.

  • The connection pooling feature is available when the JDBC application uses either the DriverManager class or DataSource interface to obtain a JDBC connection. The connection pool size is determined by the maxPoolSize property value and minPoolSize property value.

  • By default, connection pooling is disabled. To enable connection pooling, set the maxPoolSize property to an integer value greater than 0 (zero).

  • Manage connection pooling by using these Type 4 driver properties:

  • When used with the DriverManager class, the Type 4 driver has a connection-pool manager that determines which connections are pooled together by a unique value for these combination of properties:

    url
    catalog
    schema
    username
    password

    Therefore, connections that have the same values for the combination of a set of properties are pooled together.

    The connection-pooling property values used at the first connection of a given combination are effective throughout the life of the process. An application cannot change any of these property values after the first connection for a given combination.

3.6. Statement Pooling

The statement pooling feature allows applications to reuse the PreparedStatement object in the same way that they can reuse a connection in the connection pooling environment. Statement pooling is completely transparent to the application.

3.6.1. Guidelines for Statement Pooling

  • To enable statement pooling, set the maxStatements property to an integer value greater than 0 and enable connection pooling. For more information, see initialPoolSize Property and Connection Pooling.

  • Enabling statement pooling for your JDBC applications might dramatically improve the performance.

  • Explicitly close a prepared statement by using the Statement.close method because PreparedStatement objects that are not in scope are also not reused unless the application explicitly closes them.

  • To ensure that your application reuses a PreparedStatement, call either of these methods:

    • Statement.close method: called by the application.

    • Connection.close method: called by the application. All the PreparedStatement objects that were in use are ready to be reused when the connection is reused.

3.6.2. Troubleshooting Statement Pooling

Note the following Type 4 driver implementation details if you are troubleshooting statement pooling:

  • The Type 4 driver looks for a matching PreparedStatement object in the statement pool and reuses the PreparedStatement. The matching criteria include the SQL string, catalog, current schema, current transaction isolation, and result set holdability.

    If the Type 4 driver finds the matching PreparedStatement object, then the driver returns the same PreparedStatement object to the application for reuse and marks the PreparedStatement object as in use.

  • The algorithm, earlier used are the first to go, is used to make room for caching subsequently generated PreparedStatement objects when the number of statements reaches the maxStatements limit.

  • The Type 4 driver assumes that any SQL CONTROL statements in effect at the time of execution or reuse are the same as those in effect at the time of SQL compilation.

    If this condition is not true, then reuse of a PreparedStatement object might result in unexpected behavior.

  • Avoid recompiling to yield performance improvements from statement pooling. The SQL executor automatically recompiles queries when certain conditions are met. Some of these conditions are:

    • A run-time version of a table has a different redefinition timestamp than the compile-time version of the same table.

    • An existing open operation on a table was eliminated by a DDL or SQL utility operation.

    • The transaction isolation level and access mode at execution time is different from that at the compile time.

  • When a query is recompiled, then the SQL executor stores the recompiled query; therefore, the query is recompiled only once until any of the previous conditions are met again.

  • The Type 4 driver does not cache Statement objects.

3.7. Thread-Safe Database Access

In the Type 4 driver, API layer classes are implemented as instance-specific objects to ensure thread safety:

  • HPT4DataSource.getConnection() is implemented as a synchronized method to ensure thread safety in getting a connection.

  • Once a connection is made, the Connection object is instance-specific.

  • If multiple statements are run on different threads in a single connection, then statement objects are serialized to prevent data corruption.

3.8. "Update . . . Where Current of" Operations

The fetch size on a ResultSet must be 1 when performing an update . . . where current of cursor SQL statement.

If the value of the fetch size is greater than 1, the result of the update . . . where current of operation might be one of the following:

  • An incorrect row might be updated based on the actual cursor position.

  • An SQLException might occur because the cursor being updated might have already been closed.

The following is an example of setting a result set’s fetch size to 1 and executing an update . . . where current of cursor SQL statement.

ResultSet rs ;
  ...

  rs.setFetchSize( 1 ) ;
  String st1 = rs.getCursorName() ;

  Statement stmt2 =
    connection.createStatement( ResultSet.TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY
                              , ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE
                              ) ;
  stmt2.executeUpdate( "UPDATE cat2.sch2.table1
                        SET j = 'update row' WHERE CURRENT OF "
                     + st1
                     ) ;

3.9. INFOSTATS Command for Obtaining Query Costs

The INFOSTATS command reports the roll-up costs of a particular query. INFOSTATS is a pass-through command that collects statistics for a prepared statement. Statistics are returned to the JDBC application as a result set as soon as the prepare is finished. The result set has these columns:

Column Description

Query ID (SQL_CHAR)

The unique identifier for the query.

CPUTime (SQL_DOUBLE)

An estimate of the number of seconds of processor time it might take to execute the instructions for this query. A value of 1.0 is 1 second.

IOTime (SQL_DOUBLE)

An estimate of the number of seconds of I/O time (seeks plus data transfer) to perform the I/O for this query.

MsgTime (SQL_DOUBLE)

An estimate of the number of seconds it takes for the messaging for this query. The estimate includes the time for the number of local and remote messages and the amount of data sent.

IdleTime (SQL_DOUBLE)

An estimate of the maximum number of seconds to wait for an event to happen for this query. The estimate includes the amount of time to open a table or start an ESP process.

TotalTime (SQL_DOUBLE)

Estimated cost associated to execute the query.

Cardinality (SQL_DOUBLE)

Estimated number of rows that will be returned.

3.9.1. Use of the INFOSTATS Command

The INFOSTATS command can only be used with PreparedStatement objects. The syntax is:

INFOSTATS cursor_name

where cursor_name is the name of the prepared statement. If the cursor name is case-sensitive, then enclose it in single quotes.

To get the cursor name, use the getStatementLabel() method that is defined for the Trafodion JDBC Type 4 driver with class:

org.trafodion.jdbc.t4.T4PreparedStatement: public String
getStatementLabel() ;

Considerations

  • You can use INFOSTATS in these methods only:

    java.sql.Statement.executeQuery(String sql)
    java.sql.Statement.execute(String sql)
  • setCursorName is not supported with INFOSTATS.

  • If you invoke INFOSTATS incorrectly, the Type 4 driver issues this error:

    Message: INFOSTATS command can only be executed
             by calling execute(String sql) method.
             Sqlstate HY000
             Sqlcode 29180

Example of INFOSTATS

Statement s = conn.createStatement( ) ;

HPT4PreparedStatement p =
   (HPT4PreparedStatement)conn.prepareStatement(
      "SELECT * FROM t WHERE i = ?" ) ;

boolean results = s.execute( "INFOSTATS " + p.getStatementLabel() ) ;

if ( results )
{
   ResultSet rs = s.getResultSet( ) ;

   while ( rs.next( ) )
   {
      //process data
   }
}

Sample Output

QueryID: MXID001001128212016369912348191_16_SQL_CUR_9829657
CPUTime: 0.09975778464794362
IOTime: 0.10584000146627659

Cardinality: 100.0

3.10. Internationalization Support

3.10.1. When String Literals Are Used in Applications

Internationalization support in the driver affects the handling of string literals. The Type 4 driver handles string literals in two situations.

  1. When the driver processes an SQL statement. For example,

    Statement stmt = connection.getStatement() ;
    
    stmt.execute( "SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE col1 = 'abcd'" ) ;
  2. When the driver processes JDBC parameters. For example,

    PreparedStatement pStmt = connection.prepareStatement(
       "SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE col1 = ?" ) ;
    pStmt.setString( 1, "abcd" ) ;

To convert a string literal from the Java to an array of bytes for processing by the Trafodion, the Type 4 driver uses the column type in the database.

3.10.2. Controlling String Literal Conversion by Using the Character-Set Properties

The Type 4 driver provides character-set mapping properties. These properties allow you to explicitly define the translation of internal SQL character-set formats to and from the Java string Unicode (UnicodeBigUnmarked) encoding.

The Type 4 driver provides character-set mapping properties through key values as shown in the following table.

Key Default Value

ISO88591

ISO88591_1

KANJI

SJIS

KSC5601

EUC_KR

A description of these character sets appears in table below, which summarizes the character sets supported by Trafodion.

Trafodion Character Set Corresponding Java Encoding Set1 Description

ISO88591

ISO88591_1

Single-character, 8-bit character-data type ISO88591 supports English and other Western European languages.

Using the Character-Set Properties

The java.sql.PreparedStatement class contains the methods setString() and setCharacterStream(). These methods take a String and Reader parameter, respectively.

The java.sql.ResultSet class contains the methods getString() and getCharacterStream(). These methods return a String and Reader, respectively.

Retrieving a Column

When you retrieve a column as a string (for example, call the getString() or getCharacterStream methods), the Type 4 driver uses the character-set mapping property key to instantiate a String object (where that key corresponds to the character set of the column).

Example

The following SQL CREATE TABLE statement creates a table that has an ISO88591 column.

CREATE TABLE t1 ( c1 CHAR(20) CHARACTER SET ISO88591 ) ;

The JDBC program uses the following java command to set the ISO88591 property and issues the getString() method.

java -Dhpt4jdbc.ISO88591=SJIS test1.java

// The following method invocation returns a String object, which
// was created using the "SJIS" Java canonical name as the charset
// parameter to the String constructor.
String s1 = rs.getString( 1 ) ; // get column 1 as a String
Setting a Parameter

When you set a parameter by using a String (for example, call the setString() method), the Type 4 driver uses the key’s value when generating the internal representation of the String (where that key corresponds to the character set of the column). The character-set parameter to the String getBytes method is the Java Canonical name that corresponds to the column’s character set.

Example

The following SQL CREATE TABLE statement creates a table that has an ISO88591 column:

CREATE TABLE t1 ( c1 CHAR(20) CHARACTER SET ISO88591) ;
> java -DISO88591=SJIS test1.java

The following method invocation sets column one of stmt to the String "abcd" where "abcd" is encoded as SJIS. The charset parameter to the String getBytes method is SJIS stmt.setString( 1, "abcd" ) ;.

Controlling What Happens on an Exception

You can use the translationVerification property to explicitly define the behavior of the driver if the driver cannot translate all or part of an SQL parameter. The value portion of the property can be TRUE or FALSE. (The default value is FALSE).

If the translationVerification property’s value is FALSE and the driver cannot translate all or part of an SQL statement, then the translation is unspecified. In most cases, the characters that are untranslatable are encoded as ISO88591 single-byte question marks ('?' or 0x3F). No exception or warning is thrown.

If the translationVerification property’s value is TRUE and the driver cannot translate all or part of an SQL statement, then the driver throws an SQLException with the following text:

Translation of parameter to {0} failed. Cause: {1}

where {0} is replaced with the target character set and {1} is replaced with the cause of the translation failure.

For more information, see translationVerification Property.

3.10.3. Localizing Error Messages and Status Messages

The Type 4 driver supports Internationalization through resource bundles for localized error messages and status messages. The driver uses a set of static strings from a property file to map error messages and status messages to their textual representation.

File-Name Format for the Localized-Messages File

The property file that has the messages must have a file name in the form:

T4Messages_xx.properties

where xx is the locale name. The locale name is defined by the current default locale or by the language property.

The Type 4 driver is shipped with an error messages and status messages property file that contains the textual representation of errors and status messages for the English locale. The file is named T4Messages_en.properties.

Localized-Message String Format

A localized message file contains strings in the form:

message=message_text

Example

driver_err_error_from_server_msg=An error was returned from the server.
Error: {0} Error detail: {1}

where the message is driver_err_error_from_server_msg. The message_text is: An error was returned from the server. Error: {0} Error detail: {1}

The pattern {n} in message_text, where n equals 1, 2, 3, and so forth, is a placeholder that is filled in at run time by the Type 4 driver. Any translation must include these placeholders.

Procedure to Create a Localized-Message File
  1. Extract the T4Messages_en.properties file, which is in the jdbcT4-*.jar file.

    Example

    From a UNIX prompt, use the jar Java tool: jar -x T4Messages_en.properties < jdbcT4-*.jar

  2. Copy the file.

  3. Edit the file and replace the English text with the text for your locale.

  4. Save the file, giving it a file name that meets the naming requirements described under File-Name Format for the Localized-Messages File.

  5. Put the file in a directory anywhere in the class path for running the JDBC application.

The new messages file can be anywhere in the class path for running the user application.

At run time, if driver cannot read the messages property file, the driver uses the message portion of the property as the text of the message. For a description of the message portion, see the Localized-Message String Format.

4.2. How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties

The Type 4 JDBC driver properties configure the driver. These properties can be specified in a data source, a connection URL (the primary IP address or host name on the database), a properties file, or in the java command line.

Java properties have the form:

key=value

At run time, the driver looks for a specific set of property keys and takes action based on their associated values.

4.2.1. Where to Set Properties

  • For connections made through a DataSource or a ConnectionPoolDataSource, set the property on the DataSource or the ConnectionPoolDataSource object.

  • For the DriverManager class, set properties in either of two ways:

    1. Using the option -Dproperty_name=property_value in the command line.

    2. Using the java.util.Properties parameter in the getConnection() method of the DriverManager class.

4.2.2. Creating and Using a Properties File

JDBC applications can provide property values to configure a connection by using a file that contains properties for the JDBC driver. This property file is passed as a java command-line parameter. The format to enter the properties file in the command line is:

-Dt4jdbc.properties=<path of the properties file on disk>`

Example

-Dt4jdbc.properties=C:\temp\t4props\myprops.properties

To create the file, use the editor of your choice on your workstation to type in the property values. The entries in properties file must have a property_name=property_value value-pair format:

property_name=property_value

Example

maxStatements=1024

To configure a DataSource connection, the properties file might contain property names and values as indicated in the following list:

url=jdbc:t4jdbc://<primary IP addr or host name of database>:23400/
user=database_username
password=mypassword
description=<a string>
catalog=TRAFODION
schema=myschema
maxPoolSize=20
minPoolSize=5
maxStatements=20
loginTimeout=15
initialPoolSize=10
connectionTimeout=10
T4LogLevel=OFF
T4LogFile=/mylogdirectory/mylogfile

4.2.3. Setting Properties in the Command Line

When a Type 4 driver property is specified on the command line through the java -D option, the property must include the prefix: t4jdbc.

This notation, which includes the period (.), ensures that all the Type 4 driver property names are unique for a Java application.

Example

The maxStatements property becomes:

-Dt4jdbc.maxStatements=10

4.2.4. Precedence of Property Specifications

If a particular property is set several ways by an application, the value used depends on how the value was set according to the following order of precedence:

  1. Set on the DataSource object, DriverManager object, or ConnectionPoolDataSource object.

  2. Set through the java.util.Properties parameter in the getConnection method of DriverManager class.

  3. Set the property in a properties file specified by the t4jdbc.properties property.

  4. Set the -Dt4jdbc.property_name=<property value> in the java command line.

For more information, see order of precedence for properties specified in various ways for use with the Driver Manager.

5. Type 4 Driver Property Descriptions

The properties are listed in alphabetic order with their descriptions. For the properties summarized in categories, see Summary of Type 4 Driver Properties.

5.1. catalog Property

The catalog property sets the default catalog used to access SQL objects referenced in SQL statements if the SQL objects are not fully qualified.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: String

Default: none

Example

Specifying the catalog TRAFODION:

catalog=TRAFODION

5.2. connectionTimeout Property

The connectionTimeout property sets the number of seconds a connection can be idle before the connection is physically closed by DCS.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: int

Units: seconds

Default: -1 (Use the ConnTimeout value set on the server-side data source.)

Range: -1, 0 to 2147483647
  • Zero (0) specifies infinity as the timeout value.

  • A non-zero positive value overrides the value set on the Trafodion data source, if allowed by the connectivity settings.

  • A negative value is treated as -1.

Example

Consider the following scenario.

Even if a connection is not being used, it takes up resources. The application abandons connections; that is, the application does not physically close a connection after the application finishes using the connection.

However, you can configure the connection to close itself after 300 seconds by setting the connectionTimeout property. Then, when a connection is not referenced for 300 seconds, the connection automatically closes itself.

In this example, the specification to set the connectionTimeout property is:

connectionTimeout=300

5.3. fetchBufferSize Property

The fetchBufferSize property provides the benefits of bulk fetch.

This property sets the value in kilobytes (KB) of the size of the fetch buffer that is used when rows are fetched from a ResultSet object after a successful executeQuery() operation on a statement.

Set this property on a DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: short

Default size: 4

Range: 4 through 32767
  • Zero and negative values are treated as default values.

  • The Type 4 driver guarantees that the number of rows internally fetched will be no less than the minimum of the row size (set using the setFetchSize method) and the number of rows that will fit in the memory specified by the setFetchSize (set using the property).

Example

fetchBufferSize=32

5.4. initialPoolSize Property

The initialPoolSize property sets the initial connection pool size when connection pooling is used with the Type 4 driver.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

The driver creates n connections (where n is initialPoolSize) for each connection pool when the first connection is requested. For example, if initialPoolSize is set to 5 for a data source, then the driver attempts to create and pool five connections the first time the application calls the data source’s getConnection() method.

Data type: int

Units: number of physical connections

Default: -1 (Do not create an initial connection pool.)

Range: -1 to maxPoolSize
  • Any negative value is treated as -1.

  • Values can be less than minPoolSize, but must not exceed maxPoolSize. If the specified value is greater than maxPoolSize, the maxPoolSize property value is used.

Example

initialPoolSize=10

5.5. ISO88591 Property

The ISO88591 character-set mapping property corresponds to the SQL ISO88591 character set, which is a single-byte 8-bit character set for character data types. This property supports English and other Western European languages. For more information, see Internationalization Support.

Set this property on a DataSource object or DriverManager object. This property is ignored for connections made through the ConnectionPoolDataSource object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: String

Default: ISO88591_1

The value can be any valid Java Canonical Name as listed in the "Canonical Name for java.io and java.lang API" column of the Java documentation.

For more information, see Internationalization Support.

5.6. KANJI Property

The KANJI character-set mapping property corresponds to the SQL KANJI character set, which is a double-byte character set widely used on Japanese mainframes. This property is a subset of Shift JIS: the double character portion. The encoding for this property is big endian.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: String

Default: SJIS (which is shift-JIS, Japanese)

Example

java -Dt4jdbc.KANJI=SJIS

For more information, see Internationalization Support.

5.7. KSC5601 Property

The KSC5601 character-set mapping property corresponds to the SQL KSC5601 character set, which is a double-byte character set.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: String

Default: ECU_KR (which is KS C 5601, ECU encoding, Korean)

The value can be any valid Java Canonical Name as listed in the "Canonical Name for java.io and java.lang API" column of the Java documentation.

Example

java -Dt4jdbc.KSC5601=ECU_KR

For more information, see Internationalization Support.

5.8. language Property

The language property sets the language used for the error messages. For more information about using this property, see Localizing Error Messages and Status Messages

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: String

Default: none

The value can be any valid Java Canonical Name as listed in the "Canonical Name for java.io and java.lang API" column of the Java documentation.

Example

To set the language to shift-JIS, Japanese:

language=SJIS

5.9. loginTimeout Property

The loginTimeout property sets the time limit that a connection can be attempted before the connection disconnects. When a connection is attempted for a period longer than the set value, in seconds, the connection disconnects.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: int

Units: seconds

Default: 60

Range: 0 to 2147483647

If set to 0 (zero), no login timeout is specified.

5.10. maxIdleTime Property

The maxIdleTime property determines the number of seconds that a physical connection should remain unused in the pool before the connection is closed. 0 (zero) indicates no limit.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: int

Units: seconds

Default: 0 (No timeout)

Range: 0 through 2147483647

Any negative value is treated as 0, which indicates that no time limit applies.

Example

To set the maximum idle time to 5 minutes (300 seconds):

java -Dhpt4jdbc.maxIdleTime=300

5.11. maxPoolSize Property

The maxPoolSize property sets the maximum number of physical connections that the pool can contain. These connections include both free connections and connections in use. When the maximum number of physical connections is reached, the Type 4 driver throws an SQLException and sends the message, Maximum pool size is reached.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: int

Units: number of physical connections

Default: -1 (Disables connection pooling.)

Range: -1, 0 through 2147483647, but greater than minPoolSize

The value determines connection-pool use as follows:

  • Any negative value is treated like -1.

  • 0 means no maximum pool size.

  • A value of -1 disables connection pooling.

Any positive value less than minPoolSize is changed to the minPoolSize value.

5.12. maxStatements Property

The maxStatements property sets the total number of PreparedStatement objects that the connection pool should cache. This total includes both free objects and objects in use.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: int

Units: number of objects

Default: 0 (Disables statement pooling.)

Range: 0 through 2147483647

The value 0 disables statement pooling. Any negative value is treated like 0 (zero).

To improve performance, we recommend that you enable statement pooling for your JDBC applications because this pooling can dramatically help the performance of many applications.
Statement pooling can be in effect only if connection pooling is enabled.

Example

To specify statement pooling, type:

maxStatements=10

5.13. minPoolSize Property

The minPoolSize property limits the number of physical connections that can be in the free connection pool.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: int

Default: -1 (The minPoolSize value is ignored.)

Range: -1, 0 through n, but less than maxPoolSize
  • Any negative value is treated like -1.

  • Any value greater than maxPoolSize is changed to the maxPoolSize value.

  • The value of minPoolSize is set to -1 when maxPoolSize is -1. The value determines connection pool use as follows:

    • When the number of physical connections in the free pool reaches the minPoolSize value, the Type 4 driver closes subsequent connections by physically closing them and not adding them to the free pool.

    • 0 (zero) means that the connections are not physically closed; the connections are always added to the free pool when the connection is closed.

Example

Use the following specification to set the minPoolSize value to 1, which ensures that one connection is always retained:

minPoolSize=1

5.14. networkTimeout Property

The networkTimeout property sets a time limit that the driver waits for a reply from the database server. When an operation is attempted for a period longer than the set value, in seconds, the driver stops waiting for a reply and returns an SQLException to the user application.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Be careful when using this property. A network timeout causes the socket connection between the Type 4 driver and the connectivity server to timeout. If the server is engaged in a transaction or an SQL operation, then the server continues to perform that transaction or operation until the transaction or operation fails, the transaction manager times out, or the server realizes that the Type 4 driver client has gone away. A network timeout can result in an open transaction or operation that continues for a significant time before failing or rolling back. As a result of a network timeout, the connection becomes unavailable.
Data type: int

Units: seconds

Default: 0 (No network timeout is specified.)

0 through to 2147483647

5.15. password Property

The password property sets the password value for passing to the DCS server. By using this property, you can also change the password. The password is encrypted when it is passed to the server.

The format for specifying the password is:

password=old [, new, new ]
  • old is the current password

  • new is the new password. Passwords must be 6 to 8 characters long and cannot contain double quotes (").

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: String

Default: empty string

Example

password=eye0weU$

5.16. properties Property

The properties property specifies the location of the properties file that contains keyword-value pairs that specify property values for configuring the Type 4 driver. For more information, see Creating and Using a Properties File.

5.17. reserveDataLocators Property

The reserveDataLocators property sets the number of data locators to be reserved for a process that stores data in a LOB table.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: int

Units: number of data locators to be reserved

Default: 100

Range: 1 to 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 (2**63 -1)

Do not set a value much greater than the number of data locators actually needed. If the specified value is 0 (zero) or less, the default value (100) is used.

Base the setting of the value of the reserveDataLocators property on the application profile being executed. If the application inserts a large number of LOB items, then a higher value of the reserveDataLocators property can prevent frequent updating of the ZZ_DATA_LOCATOR value in the LOB table. However, if the application inserts only a small number of LOB items, then a smaller value is better. If a large value is used, then holes (unused data-locator numbers) could occur in the LOB table. These holes represent unused space.

Also, the administrator should avoid setting high values for the reserveDataLocators (for example, in the range of trillions or so). Setting high values prevents other Type 4 applications that use LOB table from reserving data locators.

For additional information about data locator use, see Reserving Data Locators.

To change this value for a JDBC application, specify this property from the command line.

Example

The following command reserves 150 data locators for program class myProgramClass.

java -Dhpt4jdbc.reserveDataLocators=150 myProgramClass

5.18. roundingMode Property

The roundingMode property specifies the rounding behavior of the Type 4 driver. For example, if the data is 1234.127 and column definition is NUMERIC(6, 2) and the application does setDouble() and getDouble(), then the value returned is 1234.12, which is truncated as specified by the default rounding mode, ROUND_DOWN.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: String

Default: ROUND_DOWN

Values for roundingMode are:

ROUND_CEILING

ROUND_DOWN

ROUND_FLOOR

ROUND_HALF_DOWN

ROUND_HALF_EVEN

ROUND_HALF_UP

ROUND_UNNECESSARY

ROUND_UP
  • For the definition of rounding mode values, see the java.math.BigDecimal documentation.

  • If the application sets erroneous values for the roundingMode property, no error is thrown by the Type 4 driver. The driver uses ROUND_DOWN value instead.

  • To have the application get the DataTruncation exception when data is truncated, set the roundingMode property to ROUND_UNNECESSARY.

5.19. schema Property

The schema property sets the database schema that accesses SQL objects referenced in SQL statements if the SQL objects are not fully qualified.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: String

Default: none

Example

schema=sales

5.20. T4LogFile Property

The T4LogFile property sets the name of the logging file for the Type 4 driver.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: String

Default file name is defined by the following pattern:

%h/t4jdbc%u.log

where

  • / represents the local pathname separator.

  • %h represents the value of the user.home system property. %u represents a unique number to resolve conflicts.

Any valid file name for your system is allowed.

If you explicitly specify a log file, then that file is overwritten each time a FileHandler is established using that file name.

To retain previously created log files, use the standard `java.util.logging `file syntax to append a unique number onto each log file.

Example

You can have the following property in a data source:

T4LogFile = C:/temp/MyLogFile%u.log

That name causes the Type 4 driver to create a new log file using a unique name for each connection made through that data source.

Example

C:/temp/MyLogFile43289.log

C:/temp/MyLogFile87634.log

C:/temp/MyLogFile27794.log

If you explicitly specify a log file that is not fully qualified, the Type 4 driver creates the file in the current working directory, for example, in the directory from which the JVM was invoked.

For detailed information about java.util.logging, see the logging summary documentation.

5.21. T4LogLevel Property

The T4LogLevel property sets the logging levels that control logging output for the Type 4 driver. The Java package java.util.logging logs error messages and traces messages in the driver.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: String

Default: OFF

Logging Levels

Level Description

OFF

A special level that turns off logging; the default setting.

SEVERE

Indicates a serious failure; usually applies to SQL exceptions generated by the Type 4 driver.

WARNING

Indicates a potential problem, which usually applies to SQL warnings generated by the Type 4 driver.

INFO

Provides informational messages, typically about connection pooling, statement pooling, and resource usage. This information can help in tuning application performance.

CONFIG

Provides static configuration messages that can include property values and other Type 4 driver configuration information.

FINE

Provides tracing information from the Type 4 driver methods described in the Type 4 driver API. The level of tracing is equivalent to the level of tracing provided when calling the setLogWriter() method of the DriverManager class or the DataSource class.

FINER

Indicates a detailed tracing message for which internal Type 4 driver methods provide messages. These messages can be useful in debugging the Type 4 driver.

FINEST

Indicates a highly detailed tracing message. The driver provides detailed internal data messages that can be useful in debugging the Type 4 driver.

ALL

Logs all messages.

Example

To enable tracing, use the hpt4jdbc.T4LogLevel property specified in the command line:

-Dt4jdbc.T4LogLevel=FINE

5.21.1. T4LogLevel Considerations

  • If a security manager is defined by your application using an AppServer, then LoggingPermission must be must be granted in the java.policy file as follows:

    permission java.util.logging.LoggingPermission "control", "" ;
  • The Type 4 driver is not designed to inherit the java.util.logging.FileHandler.level settings at program startup.

5.22. translationVerification Property

The translationVerification property defines the behavior of the driver if the driver cannot translate all or part of an SQL statement or SQL parameter.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

The value can be TRUE or FALSE.

Data type: String

Default: FALSE
Value Scenario What Happens

FALSE

The driver is unable to translate all or part of an SQL statement, then the translation is unspecified.

In most cases, the characters that are untranslatable are encoded as ISO88591 single-byte question marks (? or 0x3F). No exception or warning is thrown.

TRUE

The driver cannot translation all or part of an SQL statement or parameter.

The driver throws an SQLException with this text.

Translation of parameter to {0} failed. Cause: {1}

where {0} is replaced with the target character set and {1} is replaced with the cause of the translation failure.

If the translationVerification property is set to TRUE, then the process can use significantly more system resources. For better performance, set this property to FALSE.

5.23. url Property

The url property sets the URL value for the database. This property is used in the DriverManager object. The format to specify the URL is:

jdbc:t4jdbc//<primary IP addr or hostname of database>:23400/[:]
[ property=value [ ; property2=value ] ... ]

where <primary IP_addr or hostname of database>:23400> specifies the location of the database.

Data type: String

Default: none

Example

url=jdbc:t4jdbc://mynode.mycompanynetwork.net:23400/

5.23.1. url Property Considerations

  • If the url parameter is not specified and DriverManager.getConnection() is called, then the Type 4 driver throws an SQLException.

  • If you use a literal IPV4 or IPV6 address in a URL, note these guidelines:

    • For IPV6 only: enclose the address in brackets ([ and ]).

    • The port number is optional according to both the IPV4 and IPV6 standard.

    • The default port number for the database is 23400.

5.24. user Property

The user property sets the role value for the connectivity service. The role name passed must have adequate access permissions for SQL data accessed through the connectivity service.

Set this property on a DataSource object, ConnectionPoolDataSource object, or DriverManager object. For information about how to set properties, see How to Specify JDBC Type 4 Properties.

Data type: String

Default: empty string

Example

user=System_rolename

6. Type 4 Driver Compliance

6.1. Compliance Overview

The Type 4 driver conforms where applicable to the JDBC 3.0 API specification. However, this driver differs from the JDBC standard in some ways. This subsection describes the JDBC methods that are not supported, the methods and features that deviate from the specification, and features that are Trafodion extensions to the JDBC standard. JDBC features that conform to the specification are not described in this subsection.

In addition, this chapter lists features of Trafodion SQL that are not supported by the Trafodion JDBC Type 4 driver, other unsupported features, and restrictions.

6.2. Unsupported Features

The underlying data types are not supported by Trafodion.

The following interfaces in the javax.sql package are not implemented in the Type 4 driver:

Method Comments

javax.sql.XAConnection
javax.sql.XADataSource

Distributed Transactions, as described in the JDBC 3.0 API specification, are not yet implemented.

For additional information about deviations for some methods, see Deviations.

6.3. Deviations

The following table lists methods that differ in execution from the JDBC specification. When an argument in a method is ignored, the Type 4 driver does not throw an SQLException,thus allowing the application to continue processing. The application might not obtain the expected results, however. Other methods listed do not necessarily throw an SQLException, unless otherwise stated, although they differ from the specification.

The java.sql.DatabaseMetaData.getVersionColumns() method mimics the java.sql.DatabaseMetaData.getBestRowIdentifier() method because Trafodion SQL does not support SQL_ROWVER (a columns function that returns the column or columns in the specified table, if any, that are automatically updated by the data source when any value in the row is updated by any transaction).
Method Comments

java.sql.DatabaseMetaData.getColumns(String catalog, String schemaPattern, String tableNamePattern, String columnNamePattern)

The column is added to the column data, but its value is set to NULL because Trafodion SQL does not support the column type for these types:

SCOPE_CATALOG,
SCOPE_SCHEMA,
SCOPE_TABLE,
and SOURCE_DATA_TYPE

java.sql.DatabaseMetaData.getTables(String catalog, String schemaPattern, String[] types)

The column is added to the column data, but its value is set to NULL because Trafodion SQL does not support the column type for these types:

TYPE_CAT,
TYPE_SCHEMA,
TYPE_NAME,
SELF_REFERENCING_COL_NAME,
and REF_GENERATION.

java.sql.DatabaseMetaData.getUDTs(String catalog, String schemaPattern, String tableNamePattern, int[] types)

BASE_TYPE is added to the column data, but its value is set to NULL because Trafodion SQL does not support the base type.

java.sql.DatabaseMetaData.getVersionColumns()

Mimics the DatabaseMetaData.getBestRowIdentifier() method because Trafodion SQL does not support SQL_ROWVER (a columns function that returns the column or columns in the specified table, if any, that are automatically updated by the data source when any value in the row is updated by any transaction).

java.sql.Connection.createStatement(. . .)
java.sql.Connection.prepareStatement(. . .)

The Type 4 driver does not support the scroll-sensitive result set type, so an SQL Warning is issued if an application requests that type. The result set is changed to a scroll-insensitive type.

java.sql.ResultSet.setFetchDirection(. . .)

The fetch direction attribute is ignored.

java.sql.Statement.cancel()

In some instances, drops the connection to the server instead of just canceling the query. You must then reconnect to the server. Note that the connection is dropped if cancel() is issued for a statement that is being processed. Otherwise the connection is maintained.

java.sql.Statement.setEscapeProcessing(. . .)

Because Trafodion SQL parses the escape syntax, disabling escape processing has no effect.

java.sql.Statement.setFetchDirection(. . .)

The fetch direction attribute is ignored.

6.4. Trafodion Extensions

The Trafodion extensions to the JDBC standard implemented in the Type 4 driver are as follows.

6.4.1. Internationalization of Messages

The Type 4 driver is designed so that Java messages can be adopted for various languages. The error messages are stored outside the source code in a separate property file and retrieved dynamically based on the locale setting. The error messages in different languages are stored in separate property files based on the language and country. This extension does not apply to all messages that can occur when running JDBC applications.

6.4.2. Additional DatabaseMetaData APIs

APIs added to the T4DatabaseMetaData class provide these capabilities:

  • Get a description of a table’s synonyms.

    public java.sql.ResultSet getSynonymInfo(String catalog, String schema, String table) throws SQLException

6.5. Conformance of DatabaseMetaData Methods' Handling of Null Parameters

This topic describes how the Type 4 driver determines the value of null parameters passed as a parameter value on DatabaseMetaData methods. Since other vendors might implement the JDBC specification differently, this information explains the Type 4 driver results on the affected queries.

This implementation applies to methods that take parameters that can represent a pattern. The names of these parameters have the format:

attributePattern

The many methods of the java.sql.DatabaseMetaData class are affected; for example, the getColumns() method.

For another example, schema is the attribute in the parameter schemaPattern, which is a parameter to the java.sql.ResultSet.getAttributes method.

public ResultSet getAttributes( String catalog
                              , String schemaPattern
                              , String typeNamePattern
                              , String attributeNamePattern
                              ) throws SQLException

If the application passes a null value, the null is treated as follows:

  • If a parameter name contains the suffix Pattern, the null is interpreted as a % wild card.

  • If the parameter name does not contain the suffix Pattern, nulls are interpreted as the default value for that parameter.

Using this example, null parameters are interpreted as follows:

catalog

The default catalog name.

schemaPattern

A % wild card retrieves data for all schemas of the specified catalog

6.6. Type 4 Driver Conformance to SQL Data Types

6.6.1. JDBC Data Types

The following table shows the JDBC data types that are supported by Type 4 driver and their corresponding Trafodion SQL data types:

The Type 4 driver maps the following data types to the JDBC data type Types.OTHER:

INTERVAL YEAR(p)
INTERVAL YEAR(p) TO MONTH
INTERVAL MONTH(p)
INTERVAL DAY(p)
INTERVAL DAY(p) TO HOUR
INTERVAL DAY(p) TO MINUTE
INTERVAL DAY(p) TO SECOND
INTERVAL HOUR(p)
INTERVAL HOUR(p) TO MINUTE
INTERVAL HOUR(p) TO SECOND
INTERVAL MINUTE(p)
INTERVAL MINUTE(p) TO SECOND
INTERVAL SECOND(p)

6.7. Floating-Point Support

The Type 4 driver supports only IEEE floating-point data to be passed between the application client and the Type 4 driver.

6.8. SQLJ Support

The Type 4 driver supports non-customized SQLJ applications, but does not support customized SQLJ applications.

6.9. JDBC 3.0 Features Not Supported by the Type 4 Driver

These features are not required for JDBC 3.0 compliance, and they are not supported by the Trafodion JDBC Type 4 driver.

  • Multiple result sets returned by batch statements.

  • Database savepoint support. (Not provided in Trafodion SQL )

  • Retrieval of auto generated keys.

  • Transform group and type mapping.

  • Relationship between connector architecture and JDBC 3.0 SPI.

  • Secured socket communication or encryption for the interaction between the Type 4 driver and DCS.

  • Security context (user name and password) implicit propagation from AppServer to the Type 4 driver.

  • IPV6 protocol stack. (IPV6 addressing is emulated over IPV4 on the Trafodion platform - server side)

  • Distributed transactions.

6.10. Restrictions

  • The Type 4 driver supports only database features that are supported by Trafodion SQL and SPJ. Therefore, the Type 4 driver is not fully compliant with JDBC 3.0 specifications.

  • The Type 4 driver depends on DCS (Data Connectivity Service) for all server side manageability related features.

7. Tracing and Logging Facilities

The Type 4 driver provides two tracing and logging facilities:

  • Standard JDBC tracing and logging functionality as defined by the JDBC standard

  • Type 4 driver logging facility

Server-side tracing (logging) is enabled by configuring DCS.

7.1. Standard JDBC Tracing and Logging Facility

The JDBC standard provides a logging and tracing facility, which allows tracing JDBC method calls by setting the log writer. To set the log writer, either call the setLogWriter() method on the DriverManager class or call the setLogWriter() method on the DataSource class (or ConnectionPoolDataSource class).

  • A DriverManager log writer is a character output stream to which all logging and tracing messages for all connections made through the DriverManager are printed. This stream includes messages printed by the methods of this connection, messages printed by methods of other objects manufactured by the connection, and so on. The DriverManager log writer is initially null, that is, the default is for logging to be disabled.

For information about using the setLogWriter method, see the DriverManager class API.

  • A DataSource log writer is a character output stream to which all logging and tracing messages for this data source are printed. This stream includes messages printed by the methods of this object, messages printed by methods of other objects manufactured by this object, and so on. Messages printed to a data-source-specific log writer are not printed to the log writer associated with the java.sql.DriverManager class. When a DataSource object is created, the log writer is initially null; that is, the default is for logging to be disabled.

For information about using the setLogWriter method, see the DriverSource interface API.

7.2. The Type 4 Driver Logging Facility

The Type 4 driver Logging facility allows you to retrieve internal tracing information, which you can use in debugging the driver. It also allows you to capture error and warning messages.

In addition to the standard JDBC tracing and logging facility, the Type 4 driver provides an independent logging facility (Type 4 Driver Logging). The Type 4 Driver Logging provides the same level of logging and tracing as the standard JDBC tracing and logging facility with the following additional information:

  • More detail about the internals of the Type 4 driver and internal tracing information

  • Type 4 driver performance-tuning information

  • Finer control over the amount and type of logging information

  • Error and warning messages

7.2.1. Controlling Type 4 Driver Logging Output

The Type 4 driver provides two properties that you can use to control logging output.

  • T4LogLevel: Specifies the level of logging. For information about using this property, see T4LogLevel Property.

  • T4LogFile: Specifies the file to which the driver is to write logging information. For information about using this property, see T4LogFile Property.

If the application sets several property values, see Precedence of Property Specifications to determine which setting applies.

Example

These properties file entries set the logging level to SEVERE and specify a log file name:

T4LogLevel= SEVERE

T4LogFile=c:/T4logfile1.log

7.2.2. Message Format

The format of the trace output is

sequence-number ~ time-stamp ~ thread-id
~ [connection-id] ~ [server-id] ~ [dialogue-id]
~ [class].[method][(parameters)] ~ [text]
Identifier Provides

sequence-number

A unique sequence number in increasing order.

time-stamp

The time of the message, for example 10/17/2004 12:48:23.

thread-id

The thread identifier within the Java VM.

connection-id

If applicable, a unique ID for the connection associated with the message.

server-id

If applicable, information about the connectivity server associated with the message. The server-id is of the form:

TCP:node-name.server-name/port-number:ODBC

where

node-name is the name of the Trafodion database node.
server-name is the name of the Trafodion platform.
port-number is the port to which the server is connected.

Example

TCP:\banshee-tcp.$Z0133/46003:ODBC

dialogue-id

If applicable, the dialogue-id used for the DCS connection.

class

If applicable, the name of the class that issued the logging request.

method

If applicable, the name of the method that issued the logging request.

parameters

An optional set of parameters associated with the method.

text

Optional textual information for the message.

The tilde (~) character separates message parts. This separator allows you to format the message using tools, such as Excel, Word, UNIX sort, and so forth. For example, you can format and sort messages based on sequence number or thread ID. You can edit the log file and change the separator (the tilde) to any character you want. When possible, numbers (such as thread-id and sequence-number) are prepended with zeros (0) to allow for readable formatting.

7.2.3. Examples of Logging Output

  • Output where T4LogLevel is set to SEVERE:

    00000036 ~ Dec 8, 2006 10:05:55 AM PST ~ 10 ~ 4508606 ~ null
        ~ null ~ T4Messages.createSQLException("en_US",
        "socket_write_error", "null") ~
  • Output where T4LogLevel is set to FINER:

    0000006 ~ 10/22/2004 10:34:45 ~ 001234 ~ 0049934 ~ FetchRowSetMessage ~ marshal
      ~ Entering FetchRowSetMessage.marshal( en_US
       , 48345
       , STMT_MX_8843
       , 5
       , 4192,
       , 0
       , 0 )

9. Avoiding Driver-Server Version Mismatch

The Trafodion JDBC type 4 driver described in this document can connect only with an version-equivalent platform (server). It cannot connect with an earlier version platform.

To make a connection with the Trafodion platform, JDBC clients, through the driver, connect with the Trafodion database connectivity service (DCS) on the Trafodion platform. In some situations, Trafodion JDBC clients need to make connections to older-version platforms (servers) from the same client boxes. To make a connection, the driver version must be compatible with the Trafodion platform version.

The DCS release version and Trafodion platform release version are always the same.

9.1. Compatible Versions

Ensure that you install the driver version that is compatible with the Trafodion platform version.

Driver version Compatible versions of the Trafodion platform

Trafodion Release 2.0 driver

All versions up to, but not including, Trafodion Release 2.2

Trafodion Release 2.1 driver

All versions up to, but not including, Trafodion Release 2.2

Trafodion Release 2.2 driver

Trafodion Release 2.2 and later versions

If a compatible version is not installed, you can obtain the software to download from the Trafodion download site.

9.2. Considerations for Mixed-Version JDBC Clients Connecting to Trafodion Platforms

On the client platform, you can install multiple versions of the Trafodion JDBC type 4 driver to connect to Trafodion platforms of different platform versions.

  • Assuming you have installed the Release 2.2 Trafodion JDBC type 4 driver on your workstation and set up the client environment, the 2.2 driver’s classes are set your java CLASSPATH.

  • To connect to a Release 2.1 or 2.0 server (Trafodion platform) from the same client machine, you must load the 2.1 driver by making sure that it is in your java CLASSPATH.

  • Connecting to both a 2.1 and 2.2 server from the same application at the same time is not possible.

  • A given application must use either the 2.2 driver or the 2.1 driver when launched. The only way to switch is to reload the application when pointing to a new CLASSPATH that contains a different driver.

9.3. Version Mismatch Error Message

If an Trafodion JDBC client attempts to connect to an invalid DCS version, the driver returns the error:

SQLCODE: 29162
SQLSTATE S1000

Error text:

Unexpected programming exception has been found: <errortext>. Check
the server event log on node <logfile_location> for details.
  • <errortext> is the error text from the server.

  • <logfile_location> is the location of the log file.
