If you look at Jaybird it currently only supports protocol version 10, and as long as the newer protocol versions are not implemented, removing support for protocol version 10 would cut off all Java users from connecting to Firebird 3.0 (except when using a native client library, but that has its own downsides). I am planning on adding the newer protocol versions in Jaybird 2.3, but it will take time to get familiar with the wire protocol and its current implementation in Jaybird. What I have seen right now will probably mean that I will need to rewrite the implementation to better/easier accommodate multiple protocol versions. Then it will take more time to test the new implementation and to have users migrate to Jaybird 2.3. It would probably - correct me if I am wrong - also mean that EXECUTE STATEMENT ON EXTERNAL feature of Firebird 3.0 cannot connect to some of the earlier Firebird versions. -- Mark Rotteveel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ridiculously easy VDI.
