[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-2412) Hibernate 3 cannot be compiled under JDK 6

Hibernate 3 cannot be compiled under JDK 6 ------------------------------------------ Key: HHH-2412 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2412 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Task Components: core Affects Versions: 3.2.1, 3.2.2 Environment: windows xp, JDK 6 Reporter: Ahmet A. Akin Assignee: Steve Ebersole Fix For: 3.6 Attachments: patch_HH2412_Blob_Interface_Types.txt, patch_HH2412_ResultSetWrapper.txt Hibernate code cannot be compiled under JDK 6. Problems and possible solutions: 1- org.hibernate.jdbc.ResultSetWrapper implements ResultSet. But in Java 6, there are big changes in Resultset interface, and maybe 20+ more methods needs to be implemented in the ResultSetWrapper class. i would suggest eliminating this wrapper class once and for all, because it is only used in one method (in ColumnNameCache, getIndexForColumnName method) and i dont think there is a justification for using that wrapper class. 2- org.hibernate.lob.SerializableBlob needs to implement new Blob interface methods: public void free() throws SQLException; public InputStream getBinaryStream(long pos, long length) throws SQLException But, if this class is publicly accesible or used by API's back compatibility issues needs to be checked. 3- Same as number 2, org.hibernate.lob.BlobImpl class needs to implement new Blob methods. 4- org.hibernate.lob.SerializableClob class needs to implent new Clob methods. 5- org.hibernate.lob.ClobImpl , same as 4. In fact, Java 6 has a lot of JDBC improvements, maybe a java6 special extra package can be created., but that is a whole different issue.
