08/06/2021	7888	General	Changed Added the new sys_primarykeys system table.
07/23/2021	7874	General	Changed Updated the Literal Function Names for relative date/datetime functions. Previously relative date/datetime functions resolved to a different value when used in the projection vs te predicate. Ie: SELECT LAST_MONTH() AS lm, Col FROM Table WHERE Col > LAST_MONTH(). Formerly the two LAST_MONTH() methods would resolve to different datetimes. Now they will match. As a replacement for the previous behavior, the relative date/datetime functions in the criteria may have an 'L' appended to them. Ie: WHERE col > L_LAST_MONTH(). This will continue to resolve to the same values that previously were calculated in the criteria. Note that the "L_" prefix will only work in the predicate - it not available for the projection.
07/08/2021	7859	General	Added Added the TCP Logging Module for the logging information happening on the TCP wire protocol. The transport bytes that are incoming and ongoing will be logged at verbosity=5.
06/14/2021	7836	Facebook	Changed The default API version is updated to 11.0. Facebook has removed access from apps to return comment ids when the user does not also have permissions to moderate the comments. This may mean in some cases comments will stop returning with our driver when they were working previously. The user_likes and user_posts permissions (no longer used by default with the embedded driver) now have much more difficult requirements to access them from Facebook. Nearly all unique page type columns for the Pages table were deprecated by Facebook. For example, Parking columns, GeneralInfo, Attire, Restaurant Services columns, Awards, etc. These will all start returning null as Facebook transitions to the New Page Experience. These columns will be removed in the 2022 release of the driver.
04/23/2021	7785	General	Added Added support for handling client side formulas during insert / update. For example: UPDATE Table SET Col1 = Concat(Col1, " - ", Col2) WHERE Col2 LIKE 'A%'
04/23/2021	7783	General	Changed Updated how display sizes are determined for varchar primary key and foreign key columns so they will match the reported length of the column.
04/16/2021	7776	General	Added Non-conditional updates between two columns is now available to all drivers. For example: UPDATE Table SET Col1=Col2 Changed Reduced the length to 255 for varchar primary key and foreign key columns. Updated implicit and metadata caching to improve performance and support for multiple connections. Old metadata caches are not compatible - you would need to generate new metadata caches if you are currently using CacheMetadata. Updated index naming convention to avoid duplicates Updated and standardized Getting Started connection help. Added the Advanced Features section to the help of all drivers. Categorized connection property listings in the help for all editions.
04/15 /2021	7775	General	Changed Kerberos authentication is updated to use TCP by default, but will fall back to UDP if a TCP connection cannot be established
04/13/2021	7749	Facebook	Changed Updated the default Version to 10.0. Deprecated The Permissions connnection property is deprecated and replaced with Scope to match other drivers.
