Package software.aws.rds.jdbc.mysql

Class Driver

java.lang.Object
com.mysql.cj.jdbc.NonRegisteringDriver
software.aws.rds.jdbc.mysql.Driver
All Implemented Interfaces:
java.sql.Driver
public class Driver
extends NonRegisteringDriver
implements java.sql.Driver
The Java SQL framework allows for multiple database drivers. Each driver should supply a class that implements the Driver interface

The DriverManager will try to load as many drivers as it can find and then for any given connection request, it will ask each driver in turn to try to connect to the target URL.

It is strongly recommended that each Driver class should be small and standalone so that the Driver class can be loaded and queried without bringing in vast quantities of supporting code.

When a Driver class is loaded, it should create an instance of itself and register it with the DriverManager. This means that a user can load and register a driver by doing Class.forName("foo.bah.Driver")

  • Method Details

    • setAcceptAwsProtocolOnly

      public static void setAcceptAwsProtocolOnly​(boolean awsProtocolOnly)
      Set the acceptAwsProtocolOnly property for the driver, which controls whether protocols other than jdbc:postgresql:aws:// will be accepted by the driver. This setting should be set to true when running an application that uses this driver simultaneously with another MySQL driver that supports the same protocols (eg the MySQL JDBC Driver), to ensure the driver protocols do not clash. The property can also be set at the connection level via a connection parameter, which will take priority over this driver-level property.
      Parameters:
      awsProtocolOnly - enables the acceptAwsProtocolOnly mode of the driver
