Hi
Our context file presently has the useOldAliasMetadataBehavior=true in  it
to handle select count(*) as Bignumber type scenarios.( select as as b from
table )

We tried using the mariadb driver as we have started the journey to using
mariadb.5.5 and had a meltdown in our app (dev only thanks).
I have done some research and it as i read it the mariadb code doesn't
honour that parameter.

I have done some research and one article stated With JDBC drivers version
4.0 and later you will eventually not get the aliasName

As i haven't fully digested the JDBC 4.0 spec, barely scratched the surface
am I right to conclude Maria and MySQL drivers will not eventually support
this behavior and what is the approach to this using aliases or the selact
a as b type scenario. Just point me to the pages is fine

Any assistance appreciated

Cheers
