Hi,
could it be possible to support beside the MySQL Connector/J 5.1 also the MariaDB Connector/J 2.1 in JTSDNS.
Both driver are JDBC 4.2 compatible.
It is already possible to connect JTSDNS to a MariaDB database, but the MariaDB driver is optimized for MariaDB.
Well, everything is possible, but I don't have the time to test multiple databases everytime I change something. As soon as I implement direct MariaDB support, the next one is asking for PostgreSQL support. ;)
As long as the MySQL connector is compatible with MariaDB, this is enough for me.
I can understand your position, but it was worth trying.
