Fixed bug with UpdatableResultSets not
          using client-side prepared statements.
        
Fixed character encoding issues when converting bytes to ASCII when MySQL doesn't provide the character set, and the JVM is set to a multi-byte encoding (usually affecting retrieval of numeric values).
          Unpack „unknown“ data types from server prepared
          statements as Strings.
        
Implemented long data (Blobs, Clobs, InputStreams, Readers) for server prepared statements.
          Implemented Statement.getWarnings() for
          MySQL-4.1 and newer (using SHOW WARNINGS).
        
          Default result set type changed to
          TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY (JDBC compliance).
        
Centralized setting of result set type and concurrency.
          Refactored how connection properties are set and exposed as
          DriverPropertyInfo as well as
          Connection and
          DataSource properties.
        
          Support for NIO. Use useNIO=true on
          platforms that support NIO.
        
Support for transaction savepoints (MySQL >= 4.0.14 or 4.1.1).
          Support for mysql_change_user(). See the
          changeUser() method in
          com.mysql.jdbc.Connection.
        
Reduced number of methods called in average query to be more efficient.
          Prepared Statements will be re-prepared on
          auto-reconnect. Any errors encountered are postponed until
          first attempt to re-execute the re-prepared statement.
        
Ensure that warnings are cleared before executing queries on prepared statements, as-per JDBC spec (now that we support warnings).
          Support „old“ profileSql
          capitalization in ConnectionProperties.
          This property is deprecated, you should use
          profileSQL if possible.
        
          Optimized Buffer.readLenByteArray() to
          return shared empty byte array when length is 0.
        
          Allow contents of
          PreparedStatement.setBlob() to be retained
          between calls to .execute*().
        
          Deal with 0-length tokens in
          EscapeProcessor (caused by callable
          statement escape syntax).
        
          Check for closed connection on delete/update/insert row
          operations in UpdatableResultSet.
        
          Fix support for table aliases when checking for all primary
          keys in UpdatableResultSet.
        
          Removed useFastDates connection property.
        
Correctly initialize datasource properties from JNDI Refs, including explicitly specified URLs.
          DatabaseMetaData now reports
          supportsStoredProcedures() for MySQL
          versions >= 5.0.0
        
          Fixed stack overflow in
          Connection.prepareCall() (bad merge).
        
          Fixed IllegalAccessError to
          Calendar.getTimeInMillis() in
          DateTimeValue (for JDK < 1.4).
        
          DatabaseMetaData.getColumns() is not
          returning correct column ordinal info for
          non-'%' column name patterns. (Bug#1673)
        
          Merged fix of datatype mapping from MySQL type
          FLOAT to
          java.sql.Types.REAL from 3.0 branch.
        
          Detect collation of column for
          RSMD.isCaseSensitive().
        
Fixed sending of queries larger than 16M.
          Added named and indexed input/output parameter support to
          CallableStatement. MySQL-5.0.x or newer.
        
          Fixed NullPointerException in
          ServerPreparedStatement.setTimestamp(), as
          well as year and month descrepencies in
          ServerPreparedStatement.setTimestamp(),
          setDate().
        
          Added ability to have multiple database/JVM targets for
          compliance and regression/unit tests in
          build.xml.
        
          Fixed NPE and year/month bad conversions when accessing some
          datetime functionality in
          ServerPreparedStatements and their
          resultant result sets.
        
Display where/why a connection was implicitly closed (to aid debugging).
          CommunicationsException implemented, that
          tries to determine why communications was lost with a server,
          and displays possible reasons when
          .getMessage() is called.
        
          NULL values for numeric types in binary
          encoded result sets causing
          NullPointerExceptions. (Bug#2359)
        
          Implemented Connection.prepareCall(), and
          DatabaseMetaData.
          getProcedures() and
          getProcedureColumns().
        
          Reset long binary parameters in
          ServerPreparedStatement when
          clearParameters() is called, by sending
          COM_RESET_STMT to the server.
        
          Merged prepared statement caching, and
          .getMetaData() support from 3.0 branch.
        
          Fixed off-by-1900 error in some cases for years in
          TimeUtil.fastDate/TimeCreate()
          when unpacking results from server-side prepared statements.
        
          Fixed charset conversion issue in
          getTables(). (Bug#2502)
        
Implemented multiple result sets returned from a statement or stored procedure.
          Server-side prepared statements were not returning datatype
          YEAR correctly. (Bug#2606)
        
Enabled streaming of result sets from server-side prepared statements.
Class-cast exception when using scrolling result sets and server-side prepared statements. (Bug#2623)
Merged unbuffered input code from 3.0.
          Fixed ConnectionProperties that weren't
          properly exposed via accessors, cleaned up
          ConnectionProperties code.
        
          NULL fields were not being encoded
          correctly in all cases in server-side prepared statements.

Fixed rare buffer underflow when writing numbers into buffers for sending prepared statement execution requests.
