One more update to the MySQL/MariaDB client lib, hopefully the last
before v1.0.0 final.
This one actually includes quite a few more changes I wanted to get in
as long as it's making the big leap up to v1.0.0 (see below).
For now, this still lives in a separate fork:
https://github.com/Abscissa/mysql-native-experimental
To use it:
$ git clone https://github.com/Abscissa/mysql-native-experimental.git
$ dub add-local path/to/mysql-native-experimental
And then, when you're doing using this preview:
$ dub remove-local path/to/mysql-native-experimental
Docs here:
http://semitwist.com/mysql-native-docs/v1.0.0-rc4/
I'm going to give this a week. If no fundamental, release-delaying
issues/objections come up, and nobody speaks up that they could use more
time to evaluate it, then on Feb 26 I'll merge this branch back over to
the official mysql-native repo, and tag it as v1.0.0.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Changes in 'v1.0.0-rc4' since the previous preview, 'v0.2.0-preview3':
- Much more documentation improvement.
- Added a Prepared.sql getter, to retrieve the sql for a prepared
statement. (Previously it was inaccessible.)
- ResultSet.asAA and ResultRange.asAA now return Variant[string] instead
of DBValue[string]. DBValue is no longer needed and now deprecated (as
it was only used by `asAA` and Variant now handles null properly.)
- Fixed: Row.isNull(index) isn't a setter, so don't mark it @property
(confuses the doc generator).
- Rename MySqlPool to MySQLPool to be consistent with other parts of the
API.
- MySQLPool now supports vibe.d's ConnectionPool.maxConcurrency feature.
- Improved separation between internal ("mysql.protocol") and external
interfaces.
- No longer publicly imports internal-only symbols by default.
- Renamed module `mysql.protocol.commands` to `mysql.commands`.
- Renamed module `mysql.protocol.prepared` to `mysql.prepared`.
- Moved `ParameterSpecialization` into `mysql.prepared` (was in
`mysql.protocol.extra_types`).
- Moved `ColumnSpecialization` into `mysql.commands` (was in
`mysql.protocol.extra_types`).
- Moved the other public-API members of `mysql.protocol.extra_types`
into new modules `mysql.metadata` and `mysql.types`.
- Split module "mysql.common" into two different modules:
"mysql.exceptions" and "mysql.protocol.socket"
I also reorganized/rewrote the v1.0.0 changelog entry to be a bit more
readable, so take a look at the overall changes from the previous
release, v0.1.7, to this latest release candidate, v1.0.0-rc4
