Hotfix Release: JDBC Driver 7.2.2 for SQL Server

This post has been republished via RSS; it originally appeared at: SQL Server articles.

We have released a hotfix for version 7.2 of the JDBC Driver for SQL Server.

 

Direct downloads for version 7.2.2 can be found on the Microsoft Download Center, GitHub and Maven Central.

 

This hotfix fixes an issue with ActivityIDs not getting cleaned up properly (#1028) which resulted in high memory usage in applications which used connection pooling and had very high transaction volumes.

 

Add the JDBC driver to your Maven project by adding the following code to your POM file to include it as a dependency in your project.

Java 8:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.microsoft.sqlserver</groupId>
    <artifactId>mssql-jdbc</artifactId>
    <version>7.2.2.jre8</version>
</dependency>

Java 11:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.microsoft.sqlserver</groupId>
    <artifactId>mssql-jdbc</artifactId>
    <version>7.2.2.jre11</version>
</dependency>

As always, we welcome contributions of any kind. We appreciate everyone who has taken the time to contribute to the project thus far. For feature requests, please file an issue on the GitHub Issues page to help us track and follow-up directly.

We would also appreciate if you could take this survey to help us continue to improve the JDBC Driver.
