General Changes

[7915] - 2021-09-02

[7889] - 2021-08-07

Changed

Add the KeySeq column to the sys_foreignkeys table.

[7888] - 2021-08-06

Changed

Add the new sys_primarykeys system table.

[7874] - 2021-07-23

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.

[7859] - 2021-07-08

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.

Added

Added support for handling client side formulas during insert / update. For example: UPDATE Table SET Col1 = Concat(Col1, " - ", Col2) WHERE Col2 LIKE 'A%'

[7783] - 2021-04-23

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.

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 index naming convention to avoid duplicates
Updated and standardized Getting Started connection help.

Categorized connection property listings in the help for all editions.
