5.5.0

The main feature of this release is a new experimental API that offers a convenient query execution option within a managed transaction with automatic retries on errors eligible for retrying.

Sample usage:

var eagerResult = driver.queryTask("CREATE (n{field: $value}) RETURN n")
                    .withParameters(Map.of("value", "5"))
                    .execute();

In addition, it is also possible to provide a java.util.stream.Collector implementation to collect Records to a desired final value:

var result = driver.queryTask("UNWIND range(0, 5) as N RETURN N")
        .execute(Collectors.mapping(record -> record.get("N").asLong(), Collectors.toList()));

See the QueryTask documentation for more details.
