mySQL connector/j version problem

[steve1rm]

Hello,

I am currently using mySQL 5 with SQLyog.

I need to have a version of the connector/j which supports callableStatement, as to return a resultset from a stored procedure.

I am using a JDBC and java programming to connect to mysql which uses sqlyog interface.

My current version of connector/j gives me an error saying callablestatements not supported. Which is the best one to use?

Another quick question what is the difference between source and binaries (tar.gz and zip), maybe a stupid question.

I have noticed there is connector/j 5.0.3 and connector/j 3.1.13. I am not sure which 1 i have currently. Is there a way to verify which one I have.

Many thanks for you help in advance,

Steve

I'm afraid I know nothing about this matter, except that what you need is the "binary" version. The "source" version is only useful if you want to change the program or compile it for a non-standard platform.
