Release 1.0 – 2003-11-10

Type Changes By
Add This is the first release of the Commons DbUtils package. DbUtils is a small set of classes designed to make working with JDBC easier.
Add QueryRunner class with ResultSetHandler interface allow you to easily query or update a database and handle the ResultSet. Several useful implementations of the ResultSetHandler interface are located in the org.apache.commons.dbutils.handlers.* package.
Add ResultSet wrappers that decorate ResultSets with specialized behavior. See the classes in the org.apache.commons.dbutils.wrappers.* package for details.
Add Dynamic JDBC API interface implementations via the standard java.lang.reflect.Proxy class. This allows you to implement JDBC interfaces such as ResultSet at runtime to avoid API version incompatibilities. See org.apache.commons.dbutils.ProxyFactory for details.
