This is a beta release for the Connector/ODBC 5.2.x series. Now the available downloads include both a Unicode driver and an ANSI driver based on the same modern codebase. Server-side stored procedures are enabled by default.
Functionality Added or Changed
Driver prepares statements on server.
Support of INOUT and OUT
parameters.
Built against the MySQL server 5.5.27 client library.
Bugs Fixed
Close proximity issue when handling OS signals in myodbc. (Bug #14303803)
Several catalog or info functions could raise an incorrect error
String data, right truncated when only
partial information was requested. For example, if the
application called SQLDescribeCol(hstmt, ColNumber,
ColName, BufferLen, ....), but did not want the column
name (ColName == NULL and BufferLen
== 0). SQL_SUCCESS_WITH_INFO could
also be returned rather than the correct value
SQL_SUCCESS. This issue affected many ADO,
DAO, and other applications.
Affected functions include:
Spurious error and incorrect return code: SQLDescribeCol SQLDescribeColA SQLDescribeColW SQLGetInfoA SQLGetInfoW Incorrect return code: SQLColAttribute SQLColAttributeW SQLGetConnectAttr SQLGetConnectAttrW SQLGetCursorName SQLGetCursorNameW SQLGetInfo SQLGetInfoW SQLNativeSql SQLNativeSqlW
(Bug #14285620)
Long table names crash OBDC driver. (Bug #14085211, Bug #65200)
