I am proud to announce a new stable release of XML_Query2XML: 1.7.0 is now available!

Project home page: http://query2xml.sourceforge.net
PEAR project home page: http://pear.php.net/package/XML_Query2XML

Query2XML allows you to transform the records retrieved with one or more SQL SELECT queries
into XML data. Very simple to highly complex transformations are supported. It was written
with performance in mind and can handle large amounts of data. No XSLT needed.

This feature release brings the following additions:
* new driver for PEAR Net_LDAP2: XML_Query2XML_Driver_LDAP2
* options 'limit' and 'offset' now supported by the MDB2 and DB drivers;
  thanks to Johnny Cheng from openflyers.org for this feature request
* improved logging: now also logs the variables with which a prepared
  statement is executed
* consolidation of unit tests for different database drivers; use
  the environment variable PHP_PEAR_XML_QUERY2XML_TEST_DBLAYER to
  set the database driver to be used (MDB2,DB,PDO,ADOdbDefault,
  ADOdbPEAR or ADOdbException). Also use the environment variable
  PHP_PEAR_XML_QUERY2XML_TEST_LDAPLAYER to set the LDAP driver
  to be used (LDAP or LDAP2). Then simply run
  'pear run-tests -p XML_Query2XML'
Note: no changes were introduced since 1.7.0RC1.
