MySQL5.6不支持SET OPTION的写法

MySQL5.6不支持SET OPTION的写法

MySQL SET语法用来设置变量，
如：set AUTOCOMMIT =1; 或 OPTION AUTOCOMMIT =1;

在5.1和5.5的官方手册里写了不推荐使用后面这种SET OPTION的写法。不过在5.6版本里变成不支持SET OPTION的写法，5.6用例如下：

Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 16810290
Server version: 5.6.11-log Source distribution


Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.


mysql> set option AUTOCOMMIT =1;
ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'option AUTOCOMMIT =1' at line 1
mysql> 

由于5.6这个变化，导致一些旧的软件可能运行出错。mysql官方也不承认这是bug，所以只能升级你的软件或驱动。

在5.1.12的jdbc的客户端版本里就遇到一个问题
当用jdbc Statement调用setMaxRows()方法后，statement的close()方法会报错。

com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'OPTION SQL_SELECT_LIMIT=DEFAULT' at line 1

测试升级到5.1.22的驱动即没问题。
