Revision as of 10:38, 18 April 2007
2007-03-28 - OpenDBX 1.3.1 released
Version 1.3.1 of OpenDBX enhances the library by a read-only large object interface which enables access to blob and clob data stored within a database. The firebird backend is the first one that implements this interface and is now able to fetch data objects up to several GB is smaller chunks.
Along with the new interface, the code of the backends was split into several files, so it is more clearly arranged when extensions like the large object part will be added. Also, replacing the stdint.h by the inttypes.h include removes the undesired dependency to automake from the header file.
2007-03-12 - OpenDBX 1.3.0 released
Several small enhancements were added to this release. The most important one is surely the possibility to build the package as single library including the necessary backends. Also, the library now support connection timeouts and returns the library and the API version of the backends.
A patch for the firebird backend fixed its decimal type while another one did the same for the date type of the mssql backend. Last but not least, the library and the backends now return a new error code for invalid handles so they can be distingushed to other invalid parameters.
2007-02-26 - OpenDBX 1.2.2 released
Much testing revealed two major issues which had shown up in the mssql and sybase backends. The mssql backend was able to corrupt string values returned by the database server. Similarly, the sybase backend returned no decimal values when linked against the original Sybase ASE library instead of using the FreeTDS library.
Additionally, some small bugs in the backends where fixed. Most of them in the mssql and sybase backend but also in the pgsql, sqlite and sqlite3 backends. Also, the mssql, mysql, oracle and sybase backends were able to return backend errors in their init functions which isn't allowed.
2007-02-10 - OpenDBX 1.2.1 released
The new version features a major enhancement of the RPM spec file which should now be compliant to the Fedora guidelines. Complementary, the Debian files were updated to comply to the latest Debian policy.
Ralf van der Enden helped fixing a gettext related but for distributions like FreeBSD which provide separate libraries for internationalization. Also, some minor bugfixes were applied and missing descriptions for the functions added during the development series are now included in the documentation.
2007-02-04 - C++ IP prefix tree template class
The C++ IPPrefTree template is a very efficient data structure for adding any kind of value to an arbitrary node in the tree and retrieving them again. If you need to accumulate IP traffic stats or have to find values attached to IP addresses or subnets, this template class will provide the fastest lookup and traversal operations for your program.
2007-01-21 - New patch for PDNS LDAP backend
Thanks to Andy Rabagliati, a bug in ldap-filter-axfr and ldap-filter-lookup have been fixed. The documentation stated correctly that the values for these configuration options have to be "(:target:)" but they required ":target:" instead.
2007-01-20 - OpenDBX 1.2.0 released
The first release of the new stable series finally arrived :-)
Compared to the release candidate this package only contains a minor bugfix for the sqlite3 backend in the configure.ac file and a little enhancement. The improvement is related to static compilation, which now only references the configured backends.
