| <P> |
| Provides the java.sql.Driver interface implementation required by |
| the JDBC specification. <p> |
| |
| The Java SQL framework allows for multiple database drivers. <p> |
| |
| The DriverManager will try to load as many drivers as it can find and |
| then for any given connection request, it will ask each driver in turn |
| to try to connect to the target URL. <p> |
| |
| The application developer will normally not need to call any function of |
| the Driver directly. All required calls are made by the DriverManager. <p> |
| |
| <!-- start release-specific documentation --> |
| <div class="ReleaseSpecificDocumentation"> |
| <h3>HSQLDB-Specific Information:</h3> <p> |
| |
| When the HSQL Database Engine Driver class is loaded, it creates an |
| instance of itself and register it with the DriverManager. This means |
| that a user can load and register the HSQL Database Engine driver by |
| calling: |
| <pre> |
| <code>Class.forName("org.hsqldb.jdbc.JDBCDriver")</code> |
| </pre> |
| |
| For detailed information about how to obtain HSQLDB JDBC Connections, |
| please see <A HREF="../../../org/hsqldb/jdbc/JDBCConnection.html" title="class in org.hsqldb.jdbc"><CODE>JDBCConnection</CODE></A>.<p> |
| |
| <hr> |
| |
| <b>JRE 1.1.x Notes:</b> <p> |
| |
| In general, JDBC 2 support requires Java 1.2 and above, and JDBC3 requires |
| Java 1.4 and above. In HSQLDB, support for methods introduced in different |
| versions of JDBC depends on the JDK version used for compiling and building |
| HSQLDB.<p> |
| |
| Since 1.7.0, it is possible to build the product so that |
| all JDBC 2 methods can be called while executing under the version 1.1.x |
| <em>Java Runtime Environment</em><sup><font size="-2">TM</font></sup>. |
| However, in addition to this technique requiring explicit casts to the |
| org.hsqldb.jdbc.* classes, some of the method calls also require |
| <code>int</code> values that are defined only in the JDBC 2 or greater |
| version of the <A HREF="http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/sql/ResultSet.html?is-external=true" title="class or interface in java.sql"><CODE>ResultSet</CODE></A> interface. For this |
| reason, when the product is compiled under JDK 1.1.x, these values are |
| defined in <A HREF="../../../org/hsqldb/jdbc/JDBCResultSet.html" title="class in org.hsqldb.jdbc"><CODE>JDBCResultSet</CODE></A>. <p> |
| |
| In a JRE 1.1.x environment, calling JDBC 2 methods that take or return the |
| JDBC2-only <code>ResultSet</code> values can be achieved by referring |
| to them in parameter specifications and return value comparisons, |
| respectively, as follows: <p> |
| |
| <pre class="JavaCodeExample"> |
| JDBCResultSet.FETCH_FORWARD |
| JDBCResultSet.TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY |
| JDBCResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE |
| JDBCResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY |
| // etc. |
| </pre> |
| |
| However, please note that code written to use HSQLDB JDBC 2 features under |
| JDK 1.1.x will not be compatible for use with other JDBC 2 drivers. Please |
| also note that this feature is offered solely as a convenience to developers |
| who must work under JDK 1.1.x due to operating constraints, yet wish to |
| use some of the more advanced features available under the JDBC 2 |
| specification. <p> |
| |
| <hr> |
| |
| <b>JDBC 4.0 notes:</b><p> |
| |
| Starting with JDBC 4.0 (JDK 1.6), the <code>DriverManager</code> methods |
| <code>getConnection</code> and <code>getDrivers</code> have been |
| enhanced to support the Java Standard Edition Service Provider mechanism. |
| When built under a Java runtime that supports JDBC 4.0, HSQLDB distribution |
| jars containing the Driver implementation also include the file |
| <code>META-INF/services/java.sql.Driver</code>. This file contains the fully |
| qualified class name ('org.hsqldb.jdbc.JDBCDriver') of the HSQLDB implementation |
| of <code>java.sql.Driver</code>. <p> |
| |
| Hence, under JDBC 4.0 or greater, applications no longer need to explictly |
| load the HSQLDB JDBC driver using <code>Class.forName()</code>. Of course, |
| existing programs which do load JDBC drivers using |
| <code>Class.forName()</code> will continue to work without modification. <p> |

| |
| <P>The <code>java.util.Properties</code> argument can be used to pass |

| <h3>HSQLDB-Specific Information:</h3> <p> |
| |
| For the HSQL Database Engine, at least "user" and |
| "password" properties should be included in the Properties.<p> |
| |
| From version 1.7.1, two optional properties are supported:<p> |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li><code>get_column_name</code> (default true) - if set to false, |
| a ResultSetMetaData.getColumnName() call will return the user |
| defined label (getColumnLabel()) instead of the column |
| name.<br/> |
| |
| This property is available in order to achieve |
| compatibility with certain non-HSQLDB JDBC driver |
| implementations.</li> |
| |
| <li><code>strict_md</code> if set to true, some ResultSetMetaData |
| methods return more strict values for compatibility |
| reasons.</li> |
| </ul> <p> |
| |
| From version 1.8.0.x, <code>strict_md</code> is deprecated (ignored) |
| because metadata reporting is always strict (JDBC-compliant), and |
| three new optional properties are supported: <p> |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li><code>ifexits</code> (default false) - when true, an exception |
| is raised when attempting to connect to an in-process |
| file: or mem: scheme database instance if it has not yet been |
| created. When false, an in-process file: or mem: scheme |
| database instance is created automatically if it has not yet |
| been created. This property does not apply to requests for |
| network or res: (i.e. files_in_jar) scheme connections. <li> |
| |
| <li><code>shutdown</code> (default false) - when true, the |
| the target database mimics the behaviour of 1.7.1 and older |
| versions. When the last connection to a database is closed, |
| the database is automatically shut down. The property takes |
| effect only when the first connection is made to the database. |
| This means the connection that opens the database. It has no |
| effect if used with subsequent, simultaneous connections. <br/> |
| |
| This command has two uses. One is for test suites, where |
| connections to the database are made from one JVM context, |
| immediately followed by another context. The other use is for |
| applications where it is not easy to configure the environment |
| to shutdown the database. Examples reported by users include |
| web application servers, where the closing of the last |
| connection conicides with the web app being shut down.</li> |
| |
| <li><code>default_schema</code> - backwards compatibility feature. |
| To be used for clients written before HSQLDB schema support. |
| Denotes whether to use the default schema when a schema |
| qualifier is not included in a database object's SQL identifier |
| character sequence. Also affects the semantics of |
| DatabaseMetaData calls that supply null-valued schemaNamePattern |
| parameter values.</li> |
