Story:
Npgsql 0.7beta3 development release
Features added:
Large Object support: Npgsql now supports large object operations. Thanks Emiliano Necciari (e dot necciari at blogic
dotit) for the patch!
Bug fixes:
Added workaround when using extended query mode to add parameter types explicitly when sending Parse messages. Backend
wassending errors for some queries like (select * from t where $1 in (...) ). Backend was saying it could not recognize
parametertype of $1. Thanks Martin ( martijn at boland dot org) for heads up.
Fixed parameter replace when next byte after parameter name is \'\\\\r\'. Thanks Ivan Radovanovic (rivan at sezampro
dotyu) for the fix.
Fixed NpgsqlDataReader.GetBytes: Added a little fix for proper handling of getbytes with current Npgsql semantics in
mind.For while, we just support offset value of 0 as we read all the bytes field value at a time. So there is no copy
whenoffset is not 0.
Fixed IDisposable pattern implementation of NpgsqlTransaction. Now it doesn\'t incorrectly raise InvalidOperation
exceptions.Thanks Ivan Radovanovic ( rivan at sezampro dot yu ) for heads up.
Fixed NpgsqlCommand.Connection set property. Now connection values can be set when a connection is in place, but just
ifthe connection being set is the same as the connection which the transaction is running on. Thanks Ivan Radovanovic (
rivanat sezampro dot yu ) for heads up.
gborg 1000: Fixed NullReferenceException when setting parameter value to DBNull after creating parameter without
specifyingits NpgsqlDbType.
Fixed NpgsqlDataReader.GetBytes for .Net 1.0 compliance. CopyTo() doesn\'t have an overload which takes an Int64.
ThanksBrar Piening (brar at piening dot info) for heads up
Fixed assembly info version to 0.7.
Fixed handling of invalid authentication methods. Thanks Magnus Hagander (mha at sollentuna dot net) for the heads up.
