 - As Java 7 is no longer supported we now compile for Java 8 as the
   minimum required JVM version (profile compact2).
 
-* Thu Sep 26 2019 Martin van Dinther <martin.van.dinther@monetdbsolutions.com>
-- Compiled and released new jar files: monetdb-jdbc-2.29.jre7.jar,
-  monetdb-mcl-1.18.jre7.jar and jdbcclient.jre7.jar
-- Following issues are resolved with this new MonetDB JDBC driver release:
-  - JDBC: Support for Connection.prepareCall()
-    See https://www.monetdb.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6402
-    We implemented the java.sql.CallableStatement interface.
-  - Jdbc connection hangs
-    See https://www.monetdb.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6571
-  - Mix of long and short queries make JDBC-driver hang
-    See https://www.monetdb.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6693
-  - Example SQLcopyinto.java does not work
-    See https://www.monetdb.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6646
-  Also improvements are made in:
-  - reducing the number of objects created (and thereby heap memory size)
-  - reducing number of methods called
-  - robustness, more checks on invalid parameter values
-  - performance

-* Wed Sep 25 2019 Martin van Dinther <martin.van.dinther@monetdbsolutions.com>
-- The jar files are now named according to Java version compatibility.
-  For example, the monetdb-jdbc-2.29.jre7.jar file should be used with
-  Java 7 or higher.

-* Wed Sep 18 2019 Martin van Dinther <martin.van.dinther@monetdbsolutions.com>
-- Corrected method DatabaseMetaData.getBestRowIdentifier(). It used to
-  return columns of both primary key and unique constraints. Now it only
-  returns the columns of the primary key if it has one, else columns of
-  a unique constraint.
-
-* Wed Sep 11 2019 Martin van Dinther <martin.van.dinther@monetdbsolutions.com>
-- Optimized parse() method of TupleLineParser by creating less helper objects
-  and replacing method calls by direct operations on variables.
-
-* Wed Sep  4 2019 Martin van Dinther <martin.van.dinther@monetdbsolutions.com>
-- Corrected JdbcClient program: the dumping of a view DDL was incorrect when
-  the view creation statement was not starting with "create view ", such as
-  when it was created using "create or replace view". It now shows the
-  value as stored in sys.tables.query field, similar to mclient program.
-
-* Thu Aug 22 2019 Martin van Dinther <martin.van.dinther@monetdbsolutions.com>
-- Improved JdbcClient program by including the schema prefix when dumping
-  schema objects. It now behaves more similar to: mclient -D -N.
-- Improved JdbcClient program. It now also dumps definitions of MERGE TABLE,
-  REMOTE TABLE, REPLICA TABLE and STREAM TABLE when dumping (all) tables.
-
-* Wed Aug 14 2019 Martin van Dinther <martin.van.dinther@monetdbsolutions.com>
-- Improved MonetDatabaseMetaData methods:
-  - getNumericFunctions(): it now includes function: sys.alpha
-  - getNumericFunctions(): it no longer lists functions: not_uniques and rotate_xor_hash
-  - getStringFunctions(): it now includes functions: json.isarray, json.isobject,
-      json.isvalid, sys.reverse which accept a string value as argument
-  - getStringFunctions(): it no longer lists functions: copyfrom, get_value_for, next_value_for, restart.
-  - getSystemFunctions(): it now includes system functions: get_value_for, hash,
-      next_value_for, sys.columnsize, sys.debug, sys.hashsize, sys.heapsize,
-      sys.imprintsize, sys.isauuid, sys.md5, sys.newurl, sys.password_hash, isaurl
-  - getSystemFunctions(): it no longer lists function: getlimit.
-  Also some functions require the prefix "sys." or "json." when used
-  from another schema. This is now included in the names returned by
-  methods getNumericFunctions(), getStringFunctions(), getSystemFunctions()
-  and getTimeDateFunctions().
-
-* Wed Jul 31 2019 Martin van Dinther <martin.van.dinther@monetdbsolutions.com>
-- Corrected MonetDatabaseMetaData methods:
-  - getNumericFunctions(): it now includes function: pi.
-  - getSystemFunctions(): it no longer lists numeric functions: pi and rand.
-  - supportsSchemasInIndexDefinitions(): changed from true to false
-- Optimised MonetStatement memory resource usage by only creating an ArrayList
-  and ReentrantLock object when the batch methods addBatch() or executeBatch()
-  are called. In most Statement usages those methods are never called.
-- Implemented method MonetClob.getAsciiStream().
-
-* Thu Mar 21 2019 Martin van Dinther <martin.van.dinther@monetdbsolutions.com>
-- Added implementation of java.sql.CallableStatement interface. Some standard
-  Java applications require this JDBC interface for executing SQL stored procedures.
-  This implementation resolves request: https://www.monetdb.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6402
-
-* Thu Mar  7 2019 Martin van Dinther <martin.van.dinther@monetdbsolutions.com>
-- Improved MonetDatabaseMetaData methods:
-  - getNumericFunctions(): it now includes functions: degrees, fuse, ms_round, ms_str, ms_trunc and radians.
-  - getStringFunctions(): it now includes function: position.
-  - supportsIntegrityEnhancementFacility() now returns false, as we do not enforce CHECK constraints yet.
-
-* Thu Feb  7 2019 Martin van Dinther <martin.van.dinther@monetdbsolutions.com>
-- Improved MonetDatabaseMetaData methods:
-  - getNumericFunctions(): it no longer lists aggregate functions: avg, prod and sum
-  - getSystemFunctions(): it no longer lists timedate function: extract
-  - getTimeDateFunctions(): it now also lists functions: date_trunc, epoch
-- Corrected MonetDatabaseMetaData method getTypeInfo() for result column
-  SEARCHABLE. It now returns DatabaseMetaData.typeSearchable for all
-  string data types including 'inet','json','url','uuid' and 'blob'.
-
-* Thu Sep 20 2018 Martin van Dinther <martin.van.dinther@monetdbsolutions.com>
-- Improved example program SQLcopyinto.java and moved it to tests directory
-  for automatic testing.
-
-* Thu Jun 28 2018 Martin van Dinther <martin.van.dinther@monetdbsolutions.com>
-- Corrected return values of DatabaseMetaData methods
-  allTablesAreSelectable() and allProceduresAreCallable().
-  They used to return true but now return false.
