Hibernate 3 cannot be compiled under JDK 6
------------------------------------------

         Key: HHH-2412
         URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2412
     Project: Hibernate3
        Type: Task

  Components: core  
    Versions: 3.2.1, 3.2.2    
 Environment: windows xp, JDK 6
    Reporter: Ahmet A. Akin


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.
