Question

I am using the SphinxQL MySQL client which stores indexes as “tables” but has no real notion of a “database”…One specifies the port (9306 in my case) at which the sphinx mysql instance listens and in theory should be able to communicate as normal.

I have the following test code:

import java.sql.*;

public class Dbtest {
    public static void main (String[] args) {

    try {
        Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver").newInstance();
        Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:9306",
                         "user","password");
        con.setReadOnly(true);
        Statement stmt = con.createStatement();    
        ResultSet res = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT * from index_turned_table");

        while (res.next()) {
            String stuff1 = res.getString(1);
            String stuff2 = res.getString(2);
            System.out.println("Adding " + stuff1);
            System.out.println("Adding " + stuff2);    
        }

        res.close();
        stmt.close();
        con.close();
    }
    catch(Exception e)
    {
        System.out.println (e);
    }
}

Upon execution, the code just hangs and does nothing and doesn’t print out an exception. What are useful things I can do to figure this out or if any one has direct experience what might be going on?

This work with 1.10-beta http://www.olegsmith.com/2010/12/scalalift-sphinxql.html
and not work with 2.0.1-beta. Use mysql-connector-java 5.1.15.
