DatabaseMetaData getDatabaseMajorVersion() and getDatabaseMinorVersion() return
software version rather than database version
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DERBY-4255
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4255
Project: Derby
Issue Type: Bug
Components: JDBC
Affects Versions: 10.5.1.1, 10.4.2.0, 10.3.3.0, 10.2.2.0, 10.1.3.1, 10.6.0.0
Reporter: Kathey Marsden
The javadoc for
DatabaseMetaData.getDatabaseMajorVersion() and getDatabaseMinorVersion() says
they should retrieve the version number of the underlying database, so for soft
upgraded databases this should be the database format version not the current
software version which it currently does. getDatabaseProductVersion should
continue to return the current software version.
To reproduce create a database wombat with 10.1 with ij and then run the
program below with 10.5.
import java.sql.*;
public class TestDBMetaDatabaseVersion {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception{
Class.forName("org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver").newInstance();
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:derby:wombat");
DatabaseMetaData dmd = conn.getMetaData();
System.out.println("getDatabaseMajorVersion():" +
dmd.getDatabaseMajorVersion());
System.out.println("getDatabaseMinorVersion():" +
dmd.getDatabaseMinorVersion());
System.out.println("getDatabseProductVersion():" +
dmd.getDatabaseProductVersion());
}
}
The output shows:
getDatabaseMajorVersion():10
getDatabaseMinorVersion():5
getDatabseProductVersion():10.5.1.2 - (777744M)
The first two are incorrect and should show 10.1
