New functionality
New connection parameter serverTimezone: If set, timezone conversions will occur when storing temporal data with preparedStatement (setDate(), setTime(), setTimestamp()) and when reading data using ResultSet (getDate(),getTime(),getTimestamp()) The effect is similar to setting time_zone session variable. The difference is better cross-platform compatibility (i.e timezone names like "Asia/Omsk" can be used also when server is on Windows). Also, this optzion works for both datetime and timestamp datatypes, while server-side option has no effect on datetime. (CONJ-65)
Bugs fixed in this release
Some of the bugs fixed include:
Index parts that are not not parts of primary keys may be returned by DatabaseMetaData.getPrimaryKeys() (CONJ-66)
Fixed UTF8 length calculation (CONJ-73)
Prevent batch execution if the batchlist for statements and prepared statements is null. (CONJ-74)
MySQLDatabaseMetaData fix: GetColumns now returns type.BIT instead of type.TINYINT if tinyInt1IsBit option is set (CONJ-72)
Autoselect database for SSL connections (CONJ-71)
Throw exception for unsupported JDBC 4.1 functions (CONJ-67)
All timeout parameters will be specified in mircoseconds (instead of seconds). (CONJ-78)
Fixed a leak in callable statements (Thanks to Andrew Gaul)
