The Connection was established when JDBCOutputFormat is opened, and will > be used all the time. But if this connection lies idle for a long time, the > database will force close the connection, thus errors may occur. > 2. The flush() method is called when batchCount exceeds the threshold, but it > is also called while snapshotting state. So two threads may modify upload and > batchCount, but without synchronization. > We need fix these two problems to make JDBCOutputFormat more reliable. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
