[Sqlrelay-discussion] SQL Relay 0.40 is out

[David M. <dav...@fi...>]

Hello all,

It's been a while, but SQL Relay 0.40 is finally out.

This release includes lots of bug fixes, most for obscure bugs.  I also
integrated a few patches.  New features in this release include an
erlang API and ODBC driver.  The ODBC driver is very incomplete, but is
usable.

Here's the full Changelog:

* fixed readline detection in configure script
* fixed an uninitialized variable in sqlr-import
* changed clientSession() to call endSessionCommand()
	instead of endSession() so endSessionInternal() would be called
	every time
* fixed debug option in sqlr-import and sqlr-export
* fixed postgresql typemangling=no option
* set dbversion to unknown if sp_version wasn't found in freetds/sybase
* output bind variables' null indicator is reset now
* updated postgresql typemangling
* included Jesse Wagner's oracle 11g acsite patch
* added +1 to inbindvars[i].valuesize for CLOB's to make sure the NULL
	terminator is included
* postgresql connection uses PQparameterStatus if PQserverVersion 
	doesn't exist and runs "select version()" if PQparameterStatus
	doesn't exist; to get the db version
* added mysql-5.1 drop-in replacement lib
* fixed a bug that caused result set data not to be cleaned up before
	a cursor is reused as a bind cursor
* changed string bind length to uint32_t from uint16_t
* added clearBinds() call after executeQuery() in perl dbi driver
* began work on an ODBC driver
* added serverVersion and clientVersion methods
* incorporated Alfred Fazio's python api patches
* fixed a bug where cursors might not get aborted when a client
	disconnects
* made shared memory segment group-readable
* applied Renaud Amar's HAVE_MYSQL_OPT_RECONNECT patch
* added ODBC driver to spec file
* added DESTDIR= to .pc files
* made freetds use single-quote for escape character, other db's use
	backslash
* made sqlr-export/import use &##; for non-printable characters,
	&, < and >
* fixed scaler; supports -localstatedir option properly now
* fixed many it's -> its typos in the documentation
* changed debug so that only one binary is built and it's selected at
	runtime
* integrated erlang api
* added -localstatedir to sqlr-stop
* fixed mysql (with statement api) relogin problems
* removed non-functional config app
* added Oracle 11g on fc9 document
* added ASE 15.0.2 installation doc
* made it possible to only bind to port, not socket
* added test for tdsver.h


I have received a few patches that haven't been integrated yet and a few
bug reports that haven't been resolved yet.  In the interest of getting
this release out, I had to cut some things out, but they will be taken
care of as soon as possible.

Rudiments 0.32 is also out with some bug fixes and is recommended, but
should not be required to build SQL Relay 0.40.

Give it a try, report any bugs or issues you find.

Take care,

David Muse
