ODBTP -- Version 1.1.1 Changes
- Fixed Bugs
-
In addition to some minor and unreported bugs, the bugs that could cause
the server to crash were fixed. The latter bugs pertained to the
retrieval or submission of column and parameter data. If the size of
the data exceeded the size of its bounded buffer, a memory violation
could occur in response to the server's attempt to access invalid
memory. The problem would only occur if the buffer was not implicitly or
explicitly allocated to a size greater than the maximum data size.
This issue has been completely resolved in this version.
- Data Truncation Detection
-
Provisions were added for detecting whether or not the data retrieved from a
column or parameter was truncated. This is useful when retrieving text
or image data, where the size of the buffer bound to the corresponding
column or parameter may not be sufficient.
- Server Auto-Restart
-
The ODBTP server will automatically restart if it unexpectedly
terminates. The time and date of the termination is placed in the
Windoes Event Log, and a local file. This is useful if the server crashes
because of an unresolved issue in the server or ODBC driver.
- Socket Error Details
-
Functions were added to the C client library to obtain more details about
socket errors. Included is a function for retrieving the system dependent
error code, and another for obtaining the error text.
- New Interface Types
-
Interface types for FoxPro DBC (Database Container) files, and Excel
worksheets were added.
- PHP 5 Support
-
The PHP extension and its build files were modified so that they could be
compiled under PHP version 5. Win32 binaries of the extension for PHP 5
are also included in this version.
- Fixed PHP PEAR DB Driver
-
The PEAR DB driver was modified to work with PEAR DB version 1.6.
