version.txt date: 6/12/98 version: 06.30.0245 --------------------------------------------------------------------- This file describes changes and or fixes since the last update. NEW FEATURES: 1. Added Row Versioning Data source option. If enabled, this allows applications like Access to test if a row has been changed while it was being edited. It also lets Access use a simpler update statement, consisting of only the key and the rowver column (xmin) instead of using every single column. Caveats: - The 'xmin' column will be displayed as a regular column. There was no way around this in Access. Just ignore it. Access won't let you type into the column anyway. - An application that doesn't make use of row versioning (i.e., Borland Database Explorer) will not work well when this feature is enabled because the xmin column is always updated, thus changing the row values. 2. Added Postgres "timestamp" type as a supported data type. It is mapped to SQL_TIMESTAMP of course. BUG_FIXES: 1. Removed checks for input buffer being big enough (cbValueMax) for all data types except character and binary. For data types like dates and numerics, the driver should assume the buffer is big enough and not test cbValueMax. This prevented at least one app (odbcexpress) from working properly, but may have caused other problems.
