Functionality Added or Changed

• All demos, code samples, and test-debug scripts are now optional to install, whereas before these items were installed by default. (Bug #19248623)

Bugs Fixed

• Instances of the DataReader class did not close connections implicitly as expected when CommandBehavior was set to CloseConnection. This fix ensures that the connection is closed properly when the DataReader object no longer exists. (Bug #27277013)

• When a decimal column was defined with a scale of zero, such as DECIMAL(8, 0), the value of the NumericPrecision field returned by the MySqlDataReader.GetSchemaTable method was lower by one. For example, it returned 7 instead of 8 as expected. (Bug #26954812, Bug #88058)

• The data table returned by the MySqlDataReader.GetSchemaTable method had an inaccurate value of zero assigned to the ColumnSize field for LONGTEXT and LONGBLOB data types, and also indicated that the IsLong field value was false when it should have returned true. (Bug #26876592, Bug #87876)

• The MySqlDataReader.GetSchemaTable method returned different column-size values when used with different character sets. (Bug #26876582, Bug #87868)

• Support for making a secure connection to a server configured to use TLSv1.2 was limited by external factors. (Bug #25689154)

• SSL connections made to a single MySQL instance could not be disconnected and created repeatedly without restarting the client application to clear the half-open sockets. (Bug #20393654, Bug #75022)
