- - Quick support for named trace level 'SQL' [GSM]

+2.0.0 Released February 2008
+
+Major changes:
+
+ - Make minimum supported server 7.4. [GSM]
+ - Overhaul COPY functions: deprecate pg_getline, pg_putline,
+ and pg_endcopy. The new functions are pg_getcopydata,
+ pg_getcopydata_async, pg_putcopydata, and pg_putcopyend. [GSM]
+ - Add support for arrays: can pass in arrayrefs to execute, and
+ they are automatically returned as arrays when fetching. [GSM]
+ - Add support for asynchronous queries. [GSM]
- Allow raw transaction statements through - in other words,
do not croak if $dbh->prepare("COMMIT") is attempted. Not
only was this a little too controlling, there is a growing
host of other commands such as "COMMIT PREPARED" that we
need to allow. [GSM].
- - Be much more flexible in test connection options. [GSM]
- - Skip item if no matching key in foreign_key_info.
- (CPAN bug #32308) [GSM]
- - Overhaul COPY functions: deprecate pg_getline, pg_putline,
- and pg_endcopy. The new functions are pg_getcopydata,
- pg_getcopydata_async, pg_putcopydata, and pg_putcopyend. [GSM]
- - Change $dbh->{User} to $dbh->{Username} [GSM]
- - Add three new columns to column_info, to return unquoted
- version: pg_schema, pg_table, and pg_columns. Add all
- three to primary_key_info, and the first two to table_info
- (CPAN bug #20282) [GSM]
- - Very experimental support for bind_param_inout, use
- with caution. [GSM]
- - Switch from pow to powf to support AIX compiler issue.
- (CPAN bug #24579) [GSM]
+ - Check transaction status after each command, to allow
+ things such as 'PREPARE TRANSACTION' to work properly.
+ (CPAN bug #32423) [GSM]
+ - Overhauled the data type system. [GSM]
+ - Switch from cvs to subversion. Switch from gborg to perl.org.
+ - Change versioning system to three numbered system.
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+ - Add $dbh->{pg_placeholder_dollaronly} to allow '?' and other symbols
+ to be used in prepared statements without getting interpreted
as
+ placeholders, i.e. the geometric operator '?#' (CPAN bug
#24124) [GSM]
+ - Fix memory leak in bytea quoting. (CPAN bug #21392). Fix memory leak
+ in pg_notifies. [Stephen Marshall [EMAIL PROTECTED]
+ - Fix memory leak when using savepoints. (CPAN bug #29791)
+ [EMAIL PROTECTED]
- Use adbin, not adsrc, when figuring out the sequence name for the
last_insert_id() method. This allows the function to work
properly
if the sequence name is changed. Note that {pg_cache=>0} should
