* Recently introduced test sql_type_cast.t cannot work with DBI less than 1.611. * Minor change to Makefile.PL to avoid use of unitialised warning on $ENV{LD_LIBRARY_PATH} in warning when it is not set. Changes 1.30_7: * Some time ago (I don't know when) a few internal errors generated by DBD::ODBC got ignored. There are about 5 of them but I seriously doubt anyone would hit any other than the data truncated error (which is reported by the ODBC driver anyway) and "no select statement currently executing". You can see rt_68720.t in the t directory for an example of the latter. * An extra argument has been added to the sub associated with odbc_err_handler. The arguments passed to the odbc_err_handler are now state (string), error (string), native error code (number) and the status returned from the last ODBC API. The status will be SQL_ERROR (-1) for errors or SQL_SUCCESS_WITH_INFO (1) for informational messages.
2010-09-22Updating databases/p5-DBD-ODBC from 1.23nb1 to 1.25sno2-7/+6
Upstream changes: Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.25 September 22, 2010 * Official release of 1.25 combining all the changes in the 1.24_x development releases. Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.24_6 September 16, 2010 * rt 61370 - default XML type parameters in SQL Server to SQL_WCHAR so they accept unicode strings. Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.24_5 September 15, 2010 * Fixed missing SvSETMAGIC on a bound scalar which was causing length() to return the wrong result - see http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=860211 and a big thank you to Perl Monks and in particular ikegami. * Changed bind_col so it actually pays attention to the TYPE attribute as you could not override the bind type of a bound column before. Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.24_4 September 8, 2010 * Left a sv_undef in - thanks smoke testers for finding that. * Change sprintf to snprintf for safety. Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.24_3 September 6, 2010 * Added note from Robert Freimuth for obtaining the last insert ID in MS Access. * Changed all &sv_yes/&sv_no occurrances in XS to PL_sv_yes/PL_sv_no as the originals have now gone from blead Perl. * Minor change to fix missing newline in trace output. * Added a FAQ entry for how "use regional settings" in MS SQL Server breaks things. Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.24_2 July 23, 2010 * Fix rt57957 reported by Marc Prewitt. DBD::ODBC was not ignoring named placeholders and ? inside comments. Comments are deemed as text between "/*" and "*/" (if not in a literal) and line comments begin with "--". * Added a FAQ on procedures not completing in MS SQL Server. Thanks to Peter Rabbitson for hitting this problem and reminding me I'd seen it a couple of times before. * Added a FAQ on equality comparisons with ntext columns. * Added pod for last_insert_id which is not currently supported. * Fix bug where if SQLMoreResults was called and failed it was not reported. * Removed some unused fields from the fbh structure which should save a little memory for each column in a result-set. * Started adding support for DBI's DiscardString and StrictlyTyped but not complete yet so don't use them yet. * Added experimental odbc_lob_read method - see pod. Thanks to tye and ikegami on perlmonks for pointing out some problems with my initial implementation. * Moved the binding of columns to the first call to fetch instead of after execute is called as it prevents bind_col overrriding the type used for binding and I needed it to support odbc_lob_read. This may have undesired affects so any testing of this release would be appreciated. * Added bind_col method so DBD::ODBC can support attributes on a bind_col call. * Removed support for DBI's blob_read - it was totally flawed and did not work at all. May replace in the future. * Added support for MS SQL Server XML type (SQL type -152). See rt 59621. * Added note on do method implementation in DBD::ODBC and how some may consider it to deviate from the DBI specification. Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.24_1 May 27, 2010 * Corrected pod and private attributes for the odbc_SQL_DRIVER_ODBC_VER attribute which was documented as SQL_DRIVER_ODBC_VER. * Added FAQ on pauses on statement destruction when all the result-set has not been retrieved (mostly freeTDS and MS SQL Server ODBC Driver). * Fixed bug introduced in 1.24 where if you are using MS SQL Server, and you are preparing, binding placeholders and re-executing multiple times you may get a "Invalid character value for cast specification" error. Thanks to anonymous for spotting this and producing a standalone example of the problem that made it so much easier to find. Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.24 May 14, 2010 * Minor change in Makefile.PL to only use NO_META if ExtUtils::MakeMaker is at least at version 6.10. Reported by Chunmei Wu. * Minor change to test rt_50852 which had wrong skip count. Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.23_5 May 6, 2010 * Added advice from Jan Dubois (ActiveState) on building DBD::ODBC for ActivePerl (see README.windows). * rt56692. Fix spelling mistake in DBD::ODBC pod - thanks to Ansgar Burchardt. * Added a 7th way to help documentation - become a tester. * Hopefully fixed problems building on windows 32 bit platforms that have old sql header files not mentioning SQLLEN/SQLULEN. Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.23_4 April 13, 2010 * Added more FAQs. * Small optimization to remove calls to SQLError when tracing is not turned on. This was a bug. We only need to call SQLError when SQLExecute succeeds if there is an error handler or if tracing is enabled. The test was for tracing disabled! * Large experimental change primarily affecting MS SQL Server users but it does impact on other drivers too. Firstly, for MS SQL Server users we no longer SQLFreeStmt(SQL_RESET_PARAMS) and rebind bound parameters as it is causing the MS SQL Server ODBC driver to re-prepare the SQL. Secondly (for all drivers) we no longer call SQLBindParameter again IF all the arguments to it are the same as the previous call. If you find something not working you better let me know as this is such a speed up I'm going to go with this unless anyone complains. * Minor change to avoid a double call to SQLGetInfo for SQL_DBMS_NAME immediately after connection. * Small change for rt 55736 (reported by Matthew Kidd) to not assume a parameter is varXXX(max) if SQLDescribeParam failed in the Microsoft Native Client driver. Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.23_3 March 24, 2010 * Minor changes to Makefile.PL and dbdimp.c to remove some compiler warnings. * Fix some calls to SQLMoreResults which were not passing informational messages on to DBI's set_err. As you could not see all the informational messages from procedures, only the first. * Fix minor issue in 02simple test which printed the Perl subversion before the version. * Changes to 20SqlServer.t to fix a few typos and make table names consistent wrt to case - (as someone had turned on case-sensitivity in SQL Server) Similar changes in rt_38977.t and rt_50852.t Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.23_2 January 26, 2010 * Fixed bug in Makefile.PL which could fail to find unixODBC/iODBC header files but not report it as a problem. Thanks to Thomas J. Dillman and his smoker for finding this. * Fixed some compiler warnings in dbdimp.c output by latest gcc wrt to format specifiers in calls to PerlIO_printf. * Added the odbc_force_bind_type attribute to help sort out problems with ODBC Drivers which support SQLDescribeParam but describe the parameters incorrectly (see rt 50852). Test case also added as rt_50852.t. Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.23_1 October 21, 2009 * Makefile.PL changes: some formatting changes to output warn if unixodbc headers are not found that the unixodbc-dev package is not installed use $arext instead of "a" pattern match for pulling libodbc.* changed warn if DBI_DSN etc not defined change odbc_config output for stderr to /dev/null missing / on /usr/local wheb finding find_dm_hdr_files() * New FAQ entries from Oystein Torget for bind parameter bugs in SQL Server. * rt_46597.rt - update on wrong table * Copied dbivport.h from the latest DBI distribution into DBD::ODBC. * Added if_you_are_taking_over_this_code.txt. * Add latest Devel::PPPort ppport.h to DBD::ODBC and followed all recommendations for changes to dbdimp.c. * Added change to Makefile.PL provided by Shawn Zong to make Windows/Cygwin work again. * Minor change to Makefile.PL to output env vars to help in debugging peoples build failures. * Added odbc_utf8_on attribute to dbh and sth handles to mark all strings coming from the database as utf8. This is for Aster (based on PostgreSQL) which returns all strings as UTF-8 encoded unicode. Thanks to Noel Burton-Krahn.
2010-08-21Bump the PKGREVISION for all packages which depend directly on perl,seb1-1/+2
to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.10.1 -> 5.12.1. The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl, or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via "make show-vars VARNAMES=..."), minus the packages updated after the perl package update. sno@ was right after all, obache@ kindly asked and he@ led the way. Thanks!
2009-09-12Updating databases/p5-DBD-ODBC from 1.22 to 1.23sno3-79/+8
pkgsrc changes: - remove patch to detect iODBC correctly after is was applied upstream Upstream changes: Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.23 September 11, 2009 - Only a readme change and version bumped to 1.23. This is a full release of all the 1.22_x development releases. Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.22_3 August 19, 2009 - Fix skip count in rt_38977.t and typo in ok call. - Workaround a bug in unixODBC 2.2.11 which can write off the end of the string buffer passed to SQLColAttributes. - Fix skip count in rt_null_nvarchar.t test for non SQL Server drivers. - Fix test in 02simple.t which reported a fail if you have no ODBC datasources. - In 99_yaml.t pick up the yaml spec version from the meta file instead of specifying it. - Change calls to SQLPrepare which passed in the string lenth of the SQL to use SQL_NTS because a) they are null terminated and more importantly b) unixODBC contains a bug in versions up to 2.2.16 which can overwrite the stack by 1 byte if the string length is specified and not built with iconv support and converting the SQL from ASCII to Unicode. - Fixed bug in ping method reported by Lee Anne Lester where it dies if used after the connection is closed. - A great deal of changes to Makefile.PL to improve the automatic detection and configuration for ODBC driver managers - especially on 64bit platforms. See rt47650 from Marten Lehmann which started it all off. - Add changes from Chris Clark for detecting IngresCLI. - Fix for rt 48304. If you are using a Microsoft SQL Server database and nvarchar(max) you could not insert values between 4001 and 8000 (inclusive) in size. A test was added to the existing rt_38977.t test. Thanks to Michael Thomas for spotting this. - Added FAQ on UTF-8 encoding and IBM iSeries ODBC driver. - Add support for not passing usernames and passwords in call to connect. Previously DBD::ODBC would set an unspecified username/password to '' in ODBC.pm before calling one of the login_xxx functions. This allows the driver to pull the username/password from elsewhere e.g., like the odbc.ini file. Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.22_1 June 16, 2009 - Applied a slightly modified version of patch from Jens Rehsack to improve support for finding the iODBC driver manager. - A UNICODE enabled DBD::ODBC (the default on Windows) did not handle UNICODE usernames and passwords in the connect call properly. - Updated "Attribution" in ODBC.pm. - Unicode support is no longer experimental hence warning and prompt removed from the Makefile.PL. - old_ping method removed. - Fixed bug in 02simple.t test which is supposed to check you have at least one data source defined. Unfortunately, it was checking you had more than 1 data source defined. - rt_null_varchar had wrong skip count meaning non-sql-server drivers or sql server drivers too old skipped 2 tests more than were planned.

- Updating package of p5 module DBD::ODBC from 1.21 to 1.22 - Adjusting LICENSE to ${PERL5_LICENSE} according to META.yaml Upstream changes: * Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.22 June 10, 2009 Fixed bug which led to "Use of uninitialized value in subroutine entry" warnings when writing a NULL into a NVARCHAR with a unicode-enabled DBD::ODBC. Thanks to Jirka Novak and Pavel Richter who found, reported and patched a fix. Fixed serious bug in unicode_helper.c for utf16_len which I'm ashamed to say was using an unsigned short to return the length. This meant you could never have UTF16 strings of more than ~64K without risking serious problems. The DBD::ODBC test code actually got a *** glibc detected *** /usr/bin/perl: double free or corruption (out): 0x406dd008 *** If you use a UNICODE enabled DBD::ODBC (the default on Windows) and unicode strings larger than 64K you should definitely upgrade now. * Changes in DBD::ODBC 1.21_1 June 2, 2009 Fixed bug referred to in rt 46597 reported by taioba and identified by Tim Bunce. In Calls to bind_param for a given statement handle if you specify a SQL type to bind as, this should be "sticky" for that parameter. That means if you do: $sth->bind_param(1, $param, DBI::SQL_LONGVARCHAR) and follow it up with execute calls that also specify the parameter: $sth->execute("a param"); then the parameter should stick with the SQL_LONGVARCHAR type and not revert to the default parameter type. The DBI docs (from 1.609) make it clear the parameter type is sticky for the duration of the statement but some DBDs allow the parameter to be rebound with a different type - DBD::ODBC is one of those drivers.
