Greetings, all: I have collected all of the patches I could find, and have included them along with some of my own code to create an updated version of adodbapi. This should really be published on the sourceforge project, but since the project administrator is no longer available, I am hosting the release candidate on an old linux box at my home. Please be gentle with downloads. Mark Hammond has kindly invited me to include adodbapi in a future version of the win32all package. I believe that would be best for all and plan to accept his invitation rather than attempt to take over the sourceforge project.
The temporary site for the release candidate(s) is: ftp://ftp.vernonsComputerShop.com Prerequisites: * Python 2.3 or higher. * Mark Hammond's win32all python for windows extensions. Whats new in version 2.1? 1. Use of Decimal.decimal data type for currency data. 2. add optional timeout parameter to the connect method i.e.: adodbapi.connect( connectionString, timeout=60) [thanks to: Patrik Simons] 3. improved detection of underlying transaction support [ Thomas Albrecht ] 4. fixed record set closing bug and adoRowIDtype [ Erik Rose ] 5. client-side cursoring [ Erik Rose ] 6. correct string length for qmark parameter substitution [ Jevon a.k.a. Guybrush Threepwood ] This appears to correct the "One Character In Each Field" bug. 7. replaced the try-four-strategies parameter substitution with a single, more introspective method. 8. separated the test scripts from the core module -- TO DO -- may need to add CoUninitialize to the connection.close() -- controls are unreliable, sometimes adodbapi.verbose=True works, other times must use adodbapi.adodbapi.verbose=True to get the same effect. -- Vernon Cole mailto://[EMAIL PROTECTED] Peppermill Casinos, Inc Wendover, Nevada http://wendoverfun.com _______________________________________________ Python-win32 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
