ODBC changes

From
Hiroshi Inoue
Date:
Hi all,

I've committed changes to cvs for 7.2.0005.
This version is mainly for bug fixes.
Thanks to all bug reportes.

regards,
Hiroshi Inoue
        http://w2422.nsk.ne.jp/~inoue/

2002 Nov 12
 Fix a crash bug thanks to Ryo Hattori.

2002 Nov 13
 1) Fixed pretty many 'if (..);' lines(my fault sorry).
 2) Add a few #include lines(config.h pthread,h) for *nix.
 3) Supress automatic client_encoding setting in some cases.

2002 Nov 22
 Use SQL_TYPE_DATE, SQL_TYPE_TIME and SQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP
 instead of SQL_DATE, SQL_TIME and SQL_TIMESTAMP in ODBC
 3.X.
 Change SQLGetTypeinfo to display ODBC3.x info.

2002 Nov 25
 Change SQLRowCount to return SQL_SUCCESS not SQL_ERROR
 if the statement executed fine.
 Fix a bug reported by Glen Parker.

2002 Nov 26
 Change CURSOR_TYPE or CONCURRENCY statement attribute to
 be reset on cursor close per bug report from Glen Parker.

Hi Hiroshi,

Couple of questions:

1) Now seems the ideal time for 07.03.0001. Do you agree?

2) Is the ODBC3 driver ready to become the main one yet? I've not seen
many bug reports - or for the Unicode one for that matter. Should we now
junk the 2.5 version and just distribute the other 2?

Regards, Dave.

I don't object to it.

I'm not sure how many people are using the ODBC3 driver.

I know an application which doesn't work with the Unicode
driver.

No, neither do I - it seems unlikely that we'll ever find out though
unless we take the plunge.

We know that 07.02.0004 is pretty good, so what about dropping the 2,5
version now, and if people have major problems then they can revert to
that version until the ODBC3 one is fixed. Otherwise, we'll never know
if it's ready.

How does that sound?

OK, we can leave that one labelled as Beta.

How about leaving out the old one in and call it somethin like Postgresql25 Legacy?

Not a bad idea. What do you think Hiroshi?

The reason why I'd like to release 7.2.0005 is that it contains a

crash bug fix and is more stable than 7.2.0004. The next release

may be less stable than this one unfortunately. In fact I  already

chagned my local source but can't commit it to cvs.

If we would release the current beta driver as  our standard one,

I'd like to do it from the next release.

regards,

Hiroshi Inoue

OK then, that sounds like a plan:

1) I'll package 07.02.0005 (hopefully today).

2) The next release will be 07.03.0001

3)  The next release will contain the following drivers:

PostgreSQL [psqlodbc30.dll]
PostgreSQL Legacy [psqlodbc.dll]
PostgreSQL Unicode (Beta) [psqlodbc30w.dll]

Sound good everyone?

Regards, Dave.
