Teradata JDBC Driver 13.0.0.6

Version: 13.00.00.06 - Created: 07 May 2009

Download the Teradata JDBC Driver 13.0.0.6. This release of the JDBC driver is backwards compatible with previous releases back to Teradata Database V2R6.0. README Teradata JDBC Driver 13.0.0.6 Part of the Teradata Tools and Utilities 13.0 product suite Get the Latest Software ----------------------- We are always adding new features to the Teradata JDBC Driver, and fixing issues that might affect your application. If you obtained this release of the Teradata JDBC Driver from physical media, please check whether a newer version is available on the http://www.teradata.com Teradata Download Center in the Teradata JDBC Driver section. System Requirements ------------------- This release of the Teradata JDBC Driver requires JDK/JRE 1.4, 5.0, or 6.0. Note that IBM WebSphere Application Server 5.0 is not supported, because WebSphere 5.0 uses JDK 1.3.1. This release of the Teradata JDBC Driver supports Teradata Database V2R6.0, V2R6.1, V2R6.2, 12.0, and 13.0. What's New ---------- - New Teradata JDBC Driver class names are available. - For JDBC URL connections: com.teradata.jdbc.TeraDriver - For WebSphere Data Sources: com.teradata.jdbc.TeraConnectionPoolDataSource The old class names will continue to work; however, a warning message will be printed as a reminder to switch over to the new class names. Please change your applications and data source definitions at your earliest convenience, because the old class names will only be supported for a limited number of future releases. - Remove tdgssjava.jar from your classpath. The tdgssjava.jar file is no longer required by the Teradata JDBC Driver; the classes formerly in tdgssjava.jar now reside in terajdbc4.jar. This reduces the number of jar files from three to two, and simplifies deployment and maintenance. - Teradata Database 13.0 supports Java User-Defined Functions (UDFs). - With Teradata Database 13.0, Java Stored Procedures may now return dynamic result sets. - The Teradata JDBC Driver now provides login timeout functionality using the value set with DriverManager setLoginTimeout or DataSource setLoginTimeout. - The Teradata JDBC Driver now provides FastExport support. Setting the TYPE connection parameter to FASTEXPORT instructs the JDBC Driver to use the Teradata FastExport protocol for PreparedStatement SELECTs that are compatible with FastExport. - The Teradata JDBC Driver's JDBC FastLoad feature was changed to provide additional validation of PreparedStatement parameter values, in order to reduce the occurrence of rows placed into FastLoad error tables by the Teradata Database. - The Teradata JDBC Driver was changed to no longer require the TNANO and TSNANO connection parameters for JDBC FastLoad. JDBC FastLoad now determines the scale of TIME and TIMESTAMP destination columns and automatically sends TIME and TIMESTAMP data values using the same scale. The TNANO and TSNANO connection parameters are now ignored for JDBC FastLoad. - The Teradata JDBC Driver now works with Teradata Database 12.0 and later to provide more precise classification for DATE, TIME, and TIMESTAMP values bound to PreparedStatement question-mark parameter markers, thereby enabling the Teradata Database to provide better implicit data type conversion for those data types. - With Teradata Database 12.0 and later, the Teradata JDBC Driver now sends java.sql.Date values to the Teradata Database as DATE values using the ANSIDate DateForm. This provides Y2K-compliant implicit conversion for java.sql.Date values that are specified with the PreparedStatement/CallableStatement setDate or setObject methods, and sent to destination CHAR/VARCHAR columns and parameters. A legacy application requiring non-Y2K-compliant behavior can use a Teradata-specific Escape Syntax function to choose non-Y2K-compliant behavior. - Support for Teradata Database 13.0 QueryBand PROXYUSER user impersonation, enabling middle-tier applications to utilize connection pooling and also assert end-user identities and roles for access-rights checking and auditing of queries.

User Guide Troubleshooting Topics ---------------------- TERAJDBC4 ERROR ... The com.ncr.teradata.TeraDriver class name is deprecated ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- New Teradata JDBC Driver class names are available. - For JDBC URL connections: com.teradata.jdbc.TeraDriver - For WebSphere Data Sources: com.teradata.jdbc.TeraConnectionPoolDataSource The old class names will continue to work; however, a warning message will be printed as a reminder to switch over to the new class names. TERAJDBC4 ERROR ... The com.ncr.teradata.TeraDriver class name is deprecated. Please use the com.teradata.jdbc.TeraDriver class name instead. TERAJDBC4 ERROR ... The com.ncr.teradata.TeraConnectionPoolDataSource class name is deprecated. Please use the com.teradata.jdbc.TeraConnectionPoolDataSource class name instead. Solution: Please change your applications and data source definitions at your earliest convenience, because the old class names will only be supported for a limited number of future releases. Error 2665, 2673, or 3944 when using PreparedStatement setDate -------------------------------------------------------------- After upgrading to this release of the Teradata JDBC Driver, you may encounter one of the following Teradata Database errors when using the PreparedStatement setDate method with Teradata Database releases between TD 12.0.0.0 and TD 12.0.1.1: Teradata Database Error 2665 Invalid Date. Teradata Database Error 2673 The source parcel length does not match data that was defined. Teradata Database Error 3944 Data length is invalid for the data type. Solution: If using Teradata Database releases between TD 12.0.0.0 and TD 12.0.1.1, then upgrade to Teradata Database 12.0.1.2 or later, in order to obtain the fix for DBS DR 119554. Incorrect values from getColumnDisplaySize for CLOB columns ----------------------------------------------------------- When using Teradata Database releases V2R06.00.02.00 through V2R06.00.02.07 or Teradata Database releases V2R06.01.00.00 through V2R06.01.00.08, you may encounter the problem described by DBS DR 100397 ("PrepInfoX returns incorrect Length for CLOB columns"), which may cause incorrect values to be returned for CLOB columns from ResultSetMetaData.getColumnDisplaySize. Solution: If using Teradata Database releases V2R06.00.02.00 through V2R06.00.02.07, then upgrade to release V2R06.00.02.08 or later, which contains the fix for DR 100397. If using Teradata Database releases V2R06.01.00.00 through V2R06.01.00.08, then upgrade to release V2R06.01.00.09 or later, which contains the fix for DR 100397. Unable to connect to database when using HPUX 11.23 JDK 5.0 ----------------------------------------------------------- When attempting to connect to the Teradata Database when HPUX 11.23 JDK 5.0, you may receive an exception similar to: TeraEncrypt: Error tdgss-stack-trace-begin>>> GSSException: Failure unspecified at GSS-API level (Mechanism level: Failure during key generation by algorithm layer.) This is a known problem with HPUX 11.23 JDK 5.0. HP's web site states the following: SecureRandom engine implementation (11i HP Integrity and HP9000 PA-RISC) Beginning with 5.0, Sun Microsystems' SecureRandom engine implementation supports a new algorithm, NativePRNG, in addition to SHA1PRNG. NativePRNG will only be available if /dev/random and /dev/urandom are installed in your system. Because HP-UX does not support seeding entropy generating devices such as /dev/random, applications that rely on this will not be able to use NativePRNG. An attempt to seed the device will cause an exception. This defect is expected to be fixed in a future release. Solution: No solution is available for this issue at the present time. Modifying SQL Statements ------------------------ In the Teradata JDBC Driver, version 3.1 and earlier releases, the Teradata JDBC driver modified the SQL statement text of PreparedStatements, replacing all occurrences of "?" with "IS NULL" whenever the application called setNull() for the "?" in a WHERE clause. For example, if the SQL statement was: select * from table1 where colid = ? and the application called setNull(1), then the Teradata JDBC driver would change the SQL statement to: select * from table1 where colid IS NULL This was an incorrect procedure to use. The problem was fixed in the Teradata JDBC Driver version 3.2, but the fix could change the output of some applications. Solution: Refer to the Teradata JDBC Driver User Guide for details on how to change the application to work correctly with the Teradata JDBC Driver. Calling Stored Procedures ------------------------- In the Teradata JDBC Driver, version 3.1 and earlier releases, the Teradata JDBC driver permitted stored procedures to be called using the PreparedStatement interface, and the stored procedure's INOUT and OUT parameter output values were returned as a single-row result set from the executeQuery method. Note that the JDBC standard only supports calling stored procedures using the CallableStatement interface. Also, because stored procedures do not return a result set, only the execute and executeUpdate methods are supported for calling a stored procedure. The JDBC 3.0 specification requires a JDBC driver to throw a SQLException from executeQuery when that method is used to execute a SQL statement that does not return a result set. The Teradata JDBC Driver is evolving towards full compliance with that JDBC 3.0 specification requirement: - This release of the Teradata JDBC Driver no longer returns a stored procedure's INOUT and OUT parameter output values as a single-row result set from the PreparedStatement.executeQuery method. Instead, an empty result set is returned. - A future release of the Teradata JDBC Driver will throw a SQLException from executeQuery when that method is used to execute a SQL statement that does not return a result set, such as a SQL CALL statement. Applications using the PreparedStatement interface to call a stored procedure may encounter the difference in behavior. Solution: Modify the application to call stored procedures by using the CallableStatement interface, and either the execute or executeUpdate methods. According to the JDBC standard, the proper sequence for calling a stored procedure is as follows: - Use Escape Syntax curly braces: {call storedproc(arg1, arg2, arg3)} - Call Connection.prepareCall to use the CallableStatement interface. - Prior to executing the statement, bind all input values for IN and INOUT parameters using the CallableStatement setter methods setInt, setString, etc. - Prior to executing the statement, register all stored procedure INOUT and OUT parameters with the CallableStatement.registerOutParameter method. - Use either the CallableStatement.execute or CallableStatement.executeUpdate method to execute the SQL CALL statement. - After executing the statement, use the CallableStatement getter methods such as getInt, getString, etc. to obtain the stored procedure's INOUT and OUT parameter output values. Installation ------------ This release of the Teradata JDBC Driver is distributed as platform-independent jar files. For downloading convenience, the platform-independent jar files are bundled together and provided in both zip format and tar format. TeraJDBC__indep_indep.13.00.00.06.zip and TeraJDBC__indep_indep.13.00.00.06.tar both contain the same set of platform-independent files: readme.txt - this file terajdbc4.jar - the Teradata JDBC Driver tdgssconfig.jar - the Teradata security configuration Download either the zip file or the tar file, and unzip (or untar) the downloaded file into a directory of your choice, and then set your classpath to refer to the necessary jar files. Your classpath must include: terajdbc4.jar tdgssconfig.jar Your classpath must NOT include any jar files from any previous releases of the Teradata JDBC Driver. It is recommended, but not required, that any previous release of the Teradata JDBC Driver be uninstalled prior to downloading and using this release of the Teradata JDBC Driver. For systems running only Java applications that use the Teradata JDBC Driver, the tdgssconfig.jar file replaces the TdgssUserConfigFile.xml file from the previous release of the Teradata JDBC Driver. If the TdgssUserConfigFile.xml file has not been customized for the site, then the TdgssUserConfigFile.xml file is no longer needed and can be removed. For systems running both C/C++ and Java applications that access the Teradata Database, it is possible to share the TeraGSS security configuration. This is appropriate if the TdgssUserConfigFile.xml file has been customized for the site. To enable sharing, the Java classpath should include the TeraGSS directory that contains the TdgssUserConfigFile.xml file, and the classpath should not include the tdgssconfig.jar file. Documentation ------------- The Teradata JDBC Driver User Guide Release 13.00.00 is available online at http://www.info.teradata.com/ Navigate to "Teradata Data Warehousing", then "Teradata Tools and Utilities", then "Java Database Connectivity (JDBC)", and select the User Guide release 13.00.00, which corresponds to this release of the Teradata JDBC Driver. Documentation for how to use the Teradata JDBC Driver with supported application servers is available on the http://www.teradata.com Teradata Download Center in the Teradata JDBC Driver section.
