What is jTDS?
jTDS is an open source 100% pure Java (type 4) JDBC 3.0 driver for Microsoft SQL Server (6.5, 7, 2000, 2005, 2008 and 2012) and Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise (10, 11, 12 and 15). jTDS is based on FreeTDS and is currently the fastest production-ready JDBC driver for SQL Server and Sybase ASE.
What is the difference between Microsoft’s JDBC and jTDS-driver?
Microsoft offers a full JDBC4.2 (Java 8) driver and supports all the features of SQL Server, including SQL Server 2016. Show activity on this post. One relevant difference is, that the JDBC 4.0 Implementation of the JTDS-Driver (v1.3.1) requires at least Java 7, whereas the JDBC 4.0 Implementation of the Microsoft driver is available in Java 6.
What is the difference between jTDS and jdbc4 in hibernate?
JDBC4 was introduced with Java 6. The jTDS driver used by releases prior to Bitbucket 2.1 is a JDBC3 driver, compatible with Java 1.3, and therefore cannot be used with newer versions of Hibernate. While jTDS 1.3.0 and 1.3.1 claim to implement JDBC4, and JDBC4.1, they actually don’t.
Why doesn’t jTDS support jdbc4?
Since jTDS 1.3.1 does not provide a functioning JDBC4 implementation, the decision was made to replace jTDS with Microsoft’s own SQL Server driver. Microsoft’s driver is actively maintained, where jTDS hasn’t been updated since 2014 (and prior to the small round of updates done in 2014 it hadn’t been updated for multiple years).
What protocol does jTDS use by default?
TDS 4.2 is the protocol used by SQL Server 6.5 and it has the limitations of SQL Server 6.5 (among which a maximum column name size of 30 characters). jTDS 0.2 and earlier use TDS 4.2 by default. In order to change that you have to specify it explicitly in the Propertiesor the URL you supply when you create the connection.
What is the default value of jTDS in SQL Server?
Currently jTDS automatically falls back from 8.0 to 7.0 (if used with SQL Server 7.0) and from 5.0 to 4.2 (with Sybase 10) so specifying the value for this parameter is only necessary for SQL Server 6.5. useCursors(default – false)
