Jaybird 3.0.2 released

The Firebird JDBC team is happy to announce the release of Jaybird 3.0.2.

Jaybird 3.0.2 contains the following fixes and changes:

  • Fixed: Specifying an unknown Java character set in connection property charSet or localEncoding was handled as if no connection character set had been specified, now we throw an exception that the character set is unknown. (JDBC-498)
  • Changed: Specifying a connection character set is no longer required, and will now default to NONE again, if system property org.firebirdsql.jdbc.defaultConnectionEncoding is not specified. (JDBC-502)

See the Jaybird 3.0.2 release notes for more information. Jaybird 3.0.2 can be downloaded from the JDBC Driver page.
