[jira] [Updated] (DRILL-2837) Resolve what Statement.cancel() really should do

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-2837?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Daniel Barclay (Drill) updated DRILL-2837:
------------------------------------------
    Description: 
It is not clear exactly what JDBC's Statement.cancel() method is supposed to do.

The Javadoc method description for cancel() says only:

bq. Cancels this Statement object if both the DBMS and driver support aborting an SQL statement. This method can be used by one thread to cancel a statement that is being executed by another thread.

In particular, it's not clear what "cancels this Statement" really means.  (The JDBC PDF specification doesn't anything about it.)

&nbsp;
It seems reasonable to think that calling cancel() on a Statement cancels any associated query that has not already completed, leaves any associated ResultSet closed, and --leaves the statement closed--.

However, JDBC doesn't actually specify any of that, AvaticaStatement.cancel() does not close the Statement, and it's not clear whether SQLLine expects the above interpretation or not.
