Description:
On line 814 in the file com.mysql.jdbc.DatabaseMetaData.java there is a strannge variable assignment that essentially may not have the expected effect:

	String cascadeOptions = cascadeOptions = line.substring(lastParenIndex + 1);

This was alerted as a warning in Eclipse.

How to repeat:
Source code warning.

Suggested fix:

	String cascadeOptions = line.substring(lastParenIndex + 1);
