[dbutils] Status of outstanding JIRA issues scheduled against dbutils-1.1 release as of 3 Nov 2006
Thanks to Henri Yandell, there are now no outstanding issues against dbutils-1.1 of major importance. There are three minor issues filed against 1.1. Regarding the release of 1.1, my recommendation is that we do apply DBUTILS-17, optionally apply DBUTILS-16, and regarding DBUTILS-27, either WONTFIX or schedule it against a forthcoming 1.2 release. Then release the result as dbutils-1.1. There are already substantial improvements in CVS: but this product has not seen a release in three years. They are listed in order of increasing dubiousness. DBUTILS-17 ScalarHandler subclasses that return Integers and Longs (created 09/Mar/06 Henri Yandell has submitted a rework of an earlier suggested patch, but is unsure if they should be added. The patch does add general purpose functionality to dbutils in addition to its originally intended benefit of allowing convenient selects of longs in count(*) operations. Alan Canon leans towards FIX in 1.1 in a comment. DBUTILS-16 ResultSetRowProcessor abstract handler and some classes rework (created: 04/Jun/04) This two-and-a-half year old patch has been reworked into a brand new patch by Henri Yandell without comment as to whether or not it should be applied. DBUTILS-27 [dbutils] QueryRunner.count(String, ...) methods for SELECT COUNT(...) sql (created: 27/Sep/05) These convenience classes delegate the execution of a SQL query to a ScalarHandler. The meat of the patch is: +stmt = this.prepareStatement(conn, sql); +this.fillStatement(stmt, params); +rs = this.wrap(stmt.executeQuery()); +result = SCALAR_HANDLER.handle(rs); Comments imply that what is achieved is a weaker implementation of DBUTILS-17.

[dbutils] Outstanding issues against dbutils-1.1 as of Nov. 1, 2006
Apologies if this is a duplicate: I sent it in to the list earlier but didn't see it appear. There are four Major issues listed against the 1.1 release of [dbutils]. DBUTILS-1 BeanListHandler and BeanHandler fail to support java.sql.Date() The reporter of the bug supplied code to fix the issue. DBUTILS-32 Tests fail to build under 1.6, and warning while compiling source Alan Canon has supplied code in a JIRA comment to eliminate the compiler errors and warnings under Java 6 SDK. DBUTILS-3 Setting bean properties fails silently Alan Canon has supplied code in a JIRA comment to throw a SQLException when the described condition occurs, according to a recommendation made in a previous comment. DBUTILS-31 fillStatement setNull bug with the Derby JDBC driver Code is present in the bug description, however it appears to have been prepared to work against JDBC 3.0. The suggested patch uses java.sql.ParameterMetaData, not present in JDK 1.4.2. Comments on the bug suggest testing the JDBCMajor number to see what the JDBC version is, and acting accordingly. Additionally, another comment states the code would need to fall back to the JDBC 2.1 specification if the Oracle JDBC driver throws an exception. Francis Townsend and Henri Yandell posted comments recommending that this solution be put off for a future release. In addition, there are three Minor issues listed: DBUTILS-17 ScalarHandler subclasses that return Integers and Longs Sample implmentations are provided in the JIRA report. This also addresses issues present in DBUTILS-27. DBUTILS-27 QueryRunner.count(String, ...) methods for SELECT COUNT(...) sql This one is an improvement with diffs provided. Henri Yandell recommended it for the 1.1 release in a comment. DBUTILS-17 ResultSetRowProcessor abstract handler and some classes rework There are patches provided. This request for improvement is two years old. Henri Yandell posted a comment earlier this year that says FIX or WONTFIX for 1.1. These seven issues are all that are scheduled against the 1.1 release of dbutils. Four other unscheduled issues are not described in this message. -- Alan Canon
[dbutils] What are requirements for a 1.1 release? No recent project development.
Hello, I am using the nightly build version of commons-dbutils (present release build is 1.0, and it has problems that make it unsuitable for use.) I noticed that there has not been much activity on dbutils recently. Is there a need for additional effort on this project? (i.e., if I become a contributor, can I help things along?) What would it take to get a point release made? Alan Canon
