Basic Use

Connector implements JDBC API with minimal extensions and minimal reductions of methods, that do not make sense in C++

To be able to use API, a program should include its definition in ConnCpp.h header

#include  <ConnCpp.h>

To obtain driver instance:

sql::Driver* driver= sql::mariadb::get_driver_instance();

To connect

sql::SQLString url("jdbc:mariadb://localhost:3306/db");
sql::Properties properties({{"user", "root"}, {"password", "someSecretWord"}});
std::unique_ptr<Connection> conn(driver->connect(url, properties));

Alternatively, connection object can be obtained via DriverManager class. In this case Driver object is not needed, and the connector throws exception, if connection could not be established for whatever reason. Please note, that for conencting via DriverManager only "jdbc:mariadb://" type of URL can be used.

sql::SQLString url("jdbc:mariadb://localhost:3306/db");
sql::Properties properties({{"user", "roor"}, {"password", "someSecretWord"}});
std::unique_ptr<Connection> conn(DriverManager::getConnection(url, properties));
// or
sql::SQLString url2("jdbc:mariadb://localhost:3306/db?user=root&password=someSecretWord");
std::unique_ptr<Connection> conn2(DriverManager::getConnection(url));
// or
std::unique_ptr<Connection> conn3(DriverManager::getConnection(url, "root", "someSecretWord"));

For URL syntax and options name you may find here but not all options will have effect at the moment. In particular, not supported are(list may be incomplete):

  • keyStore
  • keyStorePassword
  • trustStore
  • trustStorePassword
  • keyStoreType
  • trustStoreType
  • allowPublicKeyRetrieval
  • tlsSocketType

Additionally supported are(or added new aliases):

Option Description Type Default Aliases
useTls Whether to force TLS. This enables TLS with the default system settings. bool useSsl,useSSL
tlsKey File path to a private key file string sslKey
keyPassword Password for the private key string MARIADB_OPT_TLS_PASSPHRASE
tlsCert Path to the X509 certificate file string sslCert
tlsCA A path to a PEM file that should contain one or more X509 certificates for trusted Certificate Authorities (CAs) string tlsCa,sslCA
tlsCAPath A path to a directory that contains one or more PEM files that should each contain one X509 certificate for a trusted Certificate Authority (CA) to use string tlsCaPath, sslCAPath
enabledTlsCipherSuites a list of permitted ciphers or cipher suites to use for TLS string enabledSslCipherSuites, enabledSSLCipherSuites
tlsCRL path to a PEM file that should contain one or more revoked X509 certificates string tlsCrl, sslCRL
tlsCRLPath A path to a directory that contains one or more PEM files that should each contain one revoked X509 certificate. The directory specified by this option needs to be run through the openssl rehash command. This option is only supported if the connector was built with OpenSSL. string tlsCrlPath, sslCRLPath
tlsPeerFP A SHA1 fingerprint of a server certificate for validation during the TLS handshake. string tlsPeerFp, MARIADB_OPT_SSL_FP
tlsPeerFPList A file containing one or more SHA1 fingerprints of server certificates for validation during the TLS handshake. string tlsPeerFpList, MARIADB_OPT_SSL_FP_LIST
serverRsaPublicKeyFile The name of the file which contains the RSA public key of the database server. The format of this file must be in PEM format. This option is used by the caching_sha2_password client authentication plugin. string rsaKey
socketTimeout Network socket timeout in milliseconds. Value of 0 disables this timeout. int OPT_READ_TIMEOUT

Properties is map of strings, and is another way to pass optional parameters.

In addition to Connector/J URL style and JDBC connect method, Connector/C++ supports following connect methods:

sql::SQLString user("root");
sql::SQLString pwd("root");
std::unique_ptr<sql::Connection> conn(driver->connect("tcp://localhost:3306/test", user, pwd));

and

sql::Properties properties;
properties["hostName"]= "127.0.0.1";
properties["userName"]= "root";
properties["password"]= "root";
std::unique_ptr<sql::Connection> conn(driver->connect(properties));

Host in former case can be defined as (tcp|unix|pipe)://<host>[:port][/] Properties in the latter case are the same, as in the first variant of the connect method, plus additionally supported

  • hostName
  • pipe
  • socket
  • schema
  • userName(alias for user)
  • password

std::string variables can be passed, where parameters are expected to be sql::SQLString

For further use one may refer to JDBC specs.

Except Driver object, normally this is application's responsibility to delete objects returned by the connector.
