I am investigating using javax.sql.rowset.CachedRowSet in part of my application, however I can only find information on using the proprietary sun implementation com.sun.rowset.CachedRowSetImpl or Oracle specific implementations.

The sun implementation is unsupported and subject to change. Using this could also cause problems if I want to deploy to non-Sun virtual machines in the future, and finally it leaves unsuppressible warnings in our build logs which can mask other warnings.

Is there an open source alternative implementation that we I can deploy with my application that will work well across multiple databases? At a minimum something that supports MySQL.

回答1:

You shouldn't be directly instantiating implementation of CachedRowSet -- use its Provider to obtain an instance: see http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/javax/sql/rowset/RowSetProvider.html (available since JDK7)

In fact, CachedRowSet's interface and related factory are standard/portable.

Something like the following shoud do the trick:

CachedRowSet crs = RowSetProvider.newFactory().createCachedRowSet();
crs.populate(myResultSet);

Here is my improved implementation of CachedRowSetImpl to support MySQL 5.x names and labels. Based on the implementation of thiy guy http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/Firebird-Java/message/10715

Oracle Implementation Is Open-Source

The question incorrectly states that the Oracle RowSet implementation is proprietary. It is not; it already is open-source.
