Re: [hibernate-dev] [Fwd: hibernate-mysql50-testsuite Build Completed With Testsuite Errors]

Is it possible to emit some extra information with the testsuite output summary. The host running the testsuites JDK and Operating System (whichever values seems more useful across the major JDK) : java.runtime.name=Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition java.runtime.version=1.5.0_08-b03 java.specification.version=1.5 java.vendor=Sun Microsystems Inc. java.version=1.5.0_08 os.arch=amd64 os.name=Linux os.version=2.6.18 Infact the above is hidden away in host-version-info.txt, but surely the above information can be summarized into a single line and emitted with the test suite for all to clearly see. Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (1.5.0_08) Sun Microsystems Inc. [Linux amd64 2.6.18] "java.runtime.name" ("java.version") "java.vendor" ["os.name" "os.arch" "os.version"] Also the same with the exact SQL server version and the JDBC driver version, maybe also a new "jdbc-version-info.txt" should be created too: On MySQL a 'SELECT VERSION();' gets the server version but a more generic way maybe to use: java.sql.Connection.getServerMajorVersion() = 5 java.sql.Connection.getServerMinorVersion() = 0 java.sql.Connection.getSubMinorVersion() = 22 java.sql.Connection.getServerVersion() = "MySQL, version: 5.0.27-standard-log" ?? java.sql.Driver.getMajorVersion() = "3" java.sql.Driver.getMinorVersion() = "1" java.sql.Connection.getMetaData().getDriverVersion() = "MySQL-AB JDBC Driver, version: mysql-connector-java-3.1.10 ( $Date: 2005/05/19 15:52:23 $, $Revision: 1.1.2.2 $ )" Looking at your test suite you are running with 3.1.10 JDBC driver, I know for sure that 3.1.13 is buggy with hibernate as I had to upgrade from it. This was in relation to unsigned data handling into signed java types (UNSIGNED TINYINT (0-255) -> short). Please consider 3.1.14 or later. Also JDBC driver 5.0.x is considered GA now looking at the MySQL website. Is the 5.0.x driver a necessary upgrade to get access to some of the features of the 5.0.x MySQL server ? I would recommend maybe using mysql-connector-java-5.0.x with MySQL 5.0.x. Darryl
