Adaptive Server Anywhere behavior changes

The following are behavior changes from previous versions of the software.

Permissions required to debug Java In order to use the Java debugger, you must either have DBA authority, or be granted membership in the SA_DEBUG group. The SA_DEBUG group does not exist in databases created prior to 6.0.2, and in these older databases any user can use the Java debugger. The SA_DEBUG group was added to close a potential security hole.

For more information, see Requirements for using the debugger.
Default packet size change The default packets size for client/server communications has been changed from 512 bytes to 1000 bytes. This change improves performance for multi-row fetches and fetches of large rows. It also increases the memory requirements.

For more information on packet size, see CommBufferSize connection parameter [CBSIZE], and -p server option.
