MariaDB Connector/C++ is the interface between C++ applications and MariaDB Server. MariaDB Connector/C++ enables development of C++ applications using a JDBC-based API, which is also used by MariaDB Connector/J.

MariaDB Connector/C++ implements the MySQL protocol using the MariaDB Connector/C API. This release depends on [MariaDB Connector/C 3.3.17](/docs/release-notes/connectors/c/3.3/3.3.17.md).

## Notable Changes

* [CONCPP-75](https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/CONCPP-75) - Introduced `restrictedAuth` connection option restricting connector in authentication plugins it may use. By using this option, application can define a comma-separated list of plugins allowed to use. That may not allow server to silently downgrade the authentication method.
* [CONCPP-146](https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/CONCPP-146) - Introduced `initSql` connection option permitting application to set a single query or the semi-colon separated list of SQL queries to be executed at the connection time

## Bugs Fixed

* [CONCPP-56](https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/CONCPP-56) - Empty stream should result in empty DB value, not a NULL
* [CONCPP-143](https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/CONCPP-143) - Possible issues in getImportedKeys, getExportedKeys and getCrossReference with 12.1 server
* [CONCPP-145](https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/CONCPP-145) - Inconsistency in getDouble() on text and binary result

## Installation

* [Install MariaDB Connector/C++](/docs/connectors/mariadb-connector-cpp/install-mariadb-connector-cpp.md)
