Subject: [mSQL] 2.0 Beta 2 available

I haven't seen an announcement on the list about this, but I noticed on the
web site (http://Hughes.com.au/) that there's a new beta version of 2.0 ...
from the docs:

2.0 Beta 2

        Release Date
           6 Jan 1997

        New Features
           Fixed problem with deletion using an index for row selection
           (reshuffle of dup values in tree node caused getNext to skip a
           valid entry)
           Fixed bug in bulk index creation where it was including
           non-active rows in the newly created index.
           Added strncasecmp() for SVR4 people (so they can dodge the
           BSD lib)
           Fixed bug in the AVL node swapping code wrt dup node lists.
           Fixed core dump bug when DISTINCT used with an empty
           result table.
           Fixed bug in the updating of CHAR fields.
           Increased listen queue for UNIX socket to 128
           Fixed bug in updateValues() where by a full field width char
           value would trash the active flag of the next field (i.e. NULL
           termination of the string).
           Fixed param count test in Lite function calling.
           Increased Lite VM performance by up to 20% by caching stack
           frames and other reuseable items.
           mSQL Server performance increases
                          Removed some more malloc & bzero overhead
                          Added speedup for boxes without hardware multiply
                          (like lots of the early SPARCs).
           The above modifications produced a 20% faster "killer" result
           on a SPARC without hardware math.
           Added support for symbolic Macros in modules
           Started support for dynamic loading shared modules

Enjoy!
