Subject: [mSQL] 2.0 Beta 3 available

Once again, I still haven't seen an official 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. Unfortunately, it's not obvious to me whether the
NULL problem a bunch of us have been having has been addressed in this
release. I'm on my way to download it and check it out now.

>From the docs:

2.0 Beta 3

        Release Date
                14 Jan 1997

        New Features
        - Fixed problem with new fast offset calculation in rowRead
        - Fixed bugs in table join logic
        - Fixed bug that allowed an update to set a non-unique value
for a
                unique index
        - Completed dynamic loading of module object code in Lite /
                W3-mSQL
        - Fixed some documentation errors in the HTML manual
        - Fixed non-flushed output in user prompts from msqladmin and
                msql
        - Fixed problem with fields being inserted with the NULL flag
set
        - Added a 0 exit val to msqldump
        - Fixed some API function prototypes
        - Added strdup() to the malloc test code (although we don't use
                the malloc library anymore for in-house code testing)
        - Fixed memory leaks in parser, msqlServerDelete, QUIT
                processing, join condition lists, and join ident fields.
        - Wrote the mod_graph dynamic loaded graphing module for Lite
                & W3-mSQL.
        - Added optional W3-auth security. The file .w3-auth must now
                be created in the directory containing the requested file
to enable
        - W3-auth access control.

Interesting ... where I am it's still 13 Jan 1997 ... :-)

BTW, Bambi, could you post something like this when you release new beta
versions so I don't have to keep checking the web site so often? (please
disregard this if one's been posted and I didn't see get it yet).

Thanks,
