Version 5.1.4

ENHANCEMENTS

• Interactive SQL for JDBC (JDBCISQL) is now installed with the product. JDBCISQL is a command-line interface that supports connecting your driver to a data source, executing SQL statements and retrieving results in a terminal. This tool provides a method to quickly test your drivers in an environment that does not support GUIs.*
• The CryptoProtocolVersion connection property has been added to the driver. This property can be used to avoid vulnerabilities associated with SSLv3 and SSLv2, including the POODLE vulnerability. Refer to CryptoProtocolVersion for details.
• Support for result set holdability has been added to the driver.

CHANGED BEHAVIOR

• Added the RegisterStatementPoolMonitorMBean connection property. Note that the
  driver no longer registers the Statement Pool Monitor as a JMX MBean by default.
  You must set RegisterStatementPoolMonitorMBean to true to register the Statement Pool Monitor and manage statement pooling with standard JMX API calls. Refer to RegisterStatementPoolMonitorMBean for details.*
