There were still more problems while building the Javadoc for other
Maven modules (other than jooq-checker). Trying with
maven-javadoc-plugin version 3.0.1 now.
Adds a new internal `DSLContext#meta(Source...)` API which can be used to construct a `Meta` object for a list of DDL scripts (similarly to the existing `DDLDatabase`), but for other use cases such as the `Parser`.
This new method uses the new internal `Source` abstraction to represent a DDL script, which can be constructed using any of the existing static `of()` factory methods or optionally by a custom implementation class.
Extracted new class DDLDatabaseInitializer from DDLDatabase. This new
class is in package `org.jooq.extensions.ddl` of Maven module
`jOOQ-extensions`.
As a consequence also renamed the configuration data keys
"org.jooq.meta.extensions.ddl.ignore-storage-clauses" and
"org.jooq.meta.extensions.ddl.parse-for-ddldatabase" to
"org.jooq.extensions.ddl.ignore-storage-clauses" and
"org.jooq.extensions.ddl.parse-for-ddldatabase" respectively.
The jOOQ 3.12 Open Source Edition will continue to support Java 8. The only things we gain from the JDK 11 dependency is:
- Updated logic for reflection when mapping into proxied default methods (that stuff has changed completely in JDK 9). This is a regression, which we can live with. The workaround is to write a custom
- Explicit dependency on the JDK 9 API, for which we provide a Java 8 compatible alternative via reactive streams anyway.
- JDBC 4.3 compatibility (mostly sharding). We currently don't use that yet.
We're not even using internally, outside of a few integration tests. So, we'll postpone the JDK 11 *requirement* (while supporting it nonetheless) to a later release, e.g. 3.13. We'll observe market share shifts. Currently Java 11's market share is a bit of a disappointment, so making it a requirement might be premature.
H2 1.4.198 changed array syntax incompatibly to align the syntax with PostgreSQL, HSQLDB, and the SQL standard. The old syntax (which conflicts with row value expression) is no longer really supported.
