[clsql.git] / ChangeLog

22 Apr 2004 Kevin Rosenberg (kevin@rosenberg.net)
        * Version 2.9.3: All tests now pass on all platforms!

        so that actual database engine is properly identified
        * db-odbc/odbc-api.lisp: Have default *time-conversion-function*
        return an ISO timestring for compatibility with other drivers.
        Workaround bug in MyODBC for LIST-TABLE-INDEXES
        * test/test-fdml.lisp: Accomodate that odbc-postgresql driver
        returns floating-point values for floor and truncate operations

20 Apr 2004 Kevin Rosenberg (kevin@rosenberg.net)
        * Version 2.9.0: New API function: LIST-TABLE-INDEXES,
        supported by all database backends (except AODBC since
        AODBC doesn't support index querying)
        * db-obdc/odbc-sql.lisp: Support DATABASE-LIST-INDEXES
        * db-odbc/odbc-api.lisp: Add %TABLE-STATISTICS function
        to support index queries

        database capabilities. Added DB-USE-COLUMN-ON-DROP-TABLES?
        as first database-backend specific feature. Is T on
        :mysql, NIL on other backends. Change DROP-TABLE to
        query this.

        * interfaces/postgresql-socket/postgresql-socket-package.cl:
        Fixed require form for Lispworks (Thanks Marc Battyani!)
        * interfaces/postgresql-socket/postgresql-socket-api.cl:
        Fixed eval of def-function for crypt library.
                
31 Mar 2002 Kevin Rosenberg (kevin@rosenberg.net)
        * Added interface to support USQL high-level rouines
        
29 Mar 2002 Kevin Rosenberg (kevin@rosenberg.net)
        * Separated db-interface and conditions from sql/sql.cl
        * Improved foreign library loading testing
        * interfaces/postgresql/postgresql-api.cl
        Added PQisBusy function
        * interfaces/clsql-uffi/clsql-uffi.cl
        Fixed sign error for 64-bit processing
        
27 Mar 2002 Kevin Rosenberg (kevin@rosenberg.net)
        * interfaces/postgresql-socket/postgresql-socket-api.cl:
        Fixes to read-double-from-socket. Added 64-bit integer support.
        * test-suite/xptest-clsql.cl
        Added testint for 64-bit integers
        * Additons to installation docs
        
26 Mar 2002 Kevin Rosenberg (kevin@rosenberg.net)
        * interfaces/postgresql-socket/postgresql-socket-api.cl:
        Implemented direct socket reading for field type :double
        * Added usage information for :types to documentation
        * interfaces/mysql/mysql-sql.cl: Fixed type specifiers in atoi,
        atol, atof calls
        * interfaces/clsql-uffi: Created new directory. Split common
        interface routines that use UFFI into this package. Required
        especially to support direct reading of 64-bit integers into
        bignums and bypassing temporary strings.
        * test-clsql.cl: Updated to test postgresql-socket's
        read-double-from-socket function.
        * test-suite/xptest-clsql.cl
        Started work on test suite

25 Mar 2002 Kevin Rosenberg (kevin@rosenberg.net)
        * interfaces/mysql/mysql-api.cl: Added mysql-fetch-fields,
        mysql-fetch-field-direct Got :auto types working
        * interfaces/postgresql/postgresql-api.cl
        * interfaces/postgresql-socket/postgresql-socket-api.cl
        Added pgsql-field-types enum. Got :auto types working.
        * multiple-files
        Renamed :field-types to :types.
        
24 Mar 2002 Kevin Rosenberg (kevin@rosenberg.net)
        * Added field-types parameter to query, database-query,
        database-query-result-set, map-query. Haven't added code
        to utilize field types, yet.
        * Changed postgresql-socket result set from cons to a structure
        * Updated test-clsql.cl to use automated testing with a config
        file
        * Changed return types of field accessors from cstring to
        (* :unsigned-char).  This prepares for being able to use specified
        type conversions when taking field data into lisp.
        * Added field-type processing for most interfaces. Not done yet.
        
23 Mar 2002 Kevin Rosenberg (kevin@rosenberg.net)
        * doc/ref.sgml: Updated MAP-QUERY example to use
        *read-default-float-format* (John Foderaro)
        * Extensive work to foreign library loaders and .system files to
        check for successful loading of foreign libraries.
        * Modified test-clsql.cl to allow more modularity and
        automated testing in future release.
        * mysql/mysql-sql.lisp: Added field types
        
01 Jan 2002 Kevin Rosenberg (kevin@rosenberg.net)
        * mysql/mysql-sql.lisp:
        - Added support for Allegro CL and Lispworks using UFFI layer
        - Changed database-connect to use mysql-real-connect. This way,
          can avoid using double (unwind-protect)
        - Changed database-connect to have MySQL library allocate space
          for MYSQL structure. This will make the code more robust in
          the event that MySQL library changes the size of the mysql-mysql
          structure.
