Description:
DatabaseMetaData.getDriverVersion() contains SVN keywords $Date: and $Revision$ which are (or were) not expanded/updated when forming release.

How to repeat:
call DatabaseMetaData.getDriverVersion(), or just look at sources

Suggested fix:
touch the file at every release?

CVS actually updated these automatically. I guess SVN's not doing it. I'll look into it further.

Now that I look at it, looks like it's being expanded to me. What's the issue? Can you point to a particular version where this didn't happen?

Revision and date for tags 5.0.6 and 5.0.7 are same for me:

Content of bug21116.java:

import testsuite.BaseTestCase;

import java.sql.DatabaseMetaData;

import com.mysql.jdbc.Driver;

public class bug21116 extends BaseTestCase {
	
	public bug21116(String name) {
		super(name);
	}

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		junit.textui.TestRunner.run(bug21116.class);
	}

	public void testBug29893() throws Exception {
		try {
			System.out.println(this.conn.getMetaData().getDriverVersion());
		} finally {
	    	closeMemberJDBCResources();
		}
	}
	
}

Test is not correct, because is not clear how to better insert revision number and value.
