Rick Hillegas commented on DERBY-6855:
--------------------------------------
Hi Bryan,
If the JDBC expert group operates as it did for the past several JVM releases,
then we won't see a revised spec until late in the JVM development cycle, close
to its release time. Spec lead Lance Andersen tells me that the next rev of the
spec will be called JDBC 4.3. And yes, changes to java.sql and javax.sql have
been checked into the Java 9 codeline already and they can be seen at the
javadoc url above. Hope this makes more sense.
> Support JDBC changes introduced by Java 9
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: DERBY-6855
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6855
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: JDBC
> Affects Versions: 10.12.1.1
> Reporter: Rick Hillegas
>
> Java 9 has introduced new classes and methods into java.sql. and javax.sql.
> At a minimum, we will need to stub these out and return an unimplemented
> feature exception. For instance, Java 9 introduces a new interface called
> java.sql.ShardingKey.
> Right now, a Derby server built on Java 8 will fail the UnsupportedVetter
> test because of these new classes and methods.
> See the Java 9 javadoc here: http://download.java.net/jdk9/docs/api/index.html
