[Sqlrelay-discussion] SQL Relay - 0.46 is out

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

Hello all,

SQL Relay 0.46 is now available!

The biggest new feature in this release is a native windows ADO.NET data 
provider. Yes, you can now aim your Windows .NET applications at SQL Relay.

To accomplish this, I ported most of Rudiments and the client-side 
components of SQL Relay to MSVC, wrote a C# wrapper for the client API 
and wrote an ADO.NET data provider using the C# wrapper.

A binary distribution will be available soon, but for now, see the 
documentation for how to build, install and use the data provider.

In addition to the ADO.NET data provider, the following new features 
have also been added:

     A begin() method has been added to the client API's to compliment 
the commit() and rollback() methods.
     A waitfordowndatabase parameter has been added to sqlrelay.conf to 
control SQL Relay's behavior when the database it's talking to has gone 
down.

The following bugs have also been fixed:

     Applied Georgiy Kirichenko's missing flushWriteBuffer() patch.
     Some subtle bugs in the Ruby DBI adapter that modern versions of 
Ruby DBI reveal.
     Fixed a race condition in the sqlr-scaler that could occur when 
connections="0" is set in the sqlrelay.conf file.
     Applied some ODBC fixes from Chae Young-ku.
     Fixed the debug option to the query command line client.
     Fixed an outstanding TCL api bug that caused cursors not to get 
created.
     Fixed several outstanding bugs regarding escaping of quotes.

Try it out and report any problems you have!
