Patched IB DataPump

IB DataPump is an old and very known utility from CleverComponents used to pump data from several source databases to IB/FB databases. Unfortunately, it isn’t updatet from a long time and has a problem with Firebird 3 servers. A few months ago, it became Open Source, so it was possible to fix this problem.

Norbert Saint Georges was kind enough to compile a new version with the fix and provide a download link at tetrasys.fi/data/ibpump.7z

Jaybird 3.0.8 released

Jaybird 3.0.8 has been released. This release contains one bug fix:

  • Fixed: On Firebird 3 and 4 with WireCrypt=Enabled, the connection could hang or throw exceptions like “Unsupported or unexpected operation code”. (JDBC-599)

Jaybird 3.0 supports Firebird 2.0 and higher, on Java 7, 8, 11 and 13. Basic Java 9 and higher compatibility is provided through the Java 8 version of the driver.

Jaybird 3.0.7 has been released. This release contains a new feature and two bug fixes:

  • New feature: added FBEventManager.createFor(Connection) to create an EventManager for an existing connection. Backported from Jaybird 4. (JDBC-594)
