02/25/20228091jdbcChanged

The types include: tinyint, smallint, int, bigint, float, double, numeric, decimal, bit, date, datetime, time, varchar, binary, uuid.
02/24/20228090jdbcChanged

  • Added support for JDK 17
10/13/20217956ServiceNowAdded
  • Added the GetColumnsMetadata connection property, which controls when and how the driver should get the columns metadata. When setting it to 'OnUse', the driver will execute the table specific metadata calls the first time the table is referenced, provided the metadata for the table in question aren't already cached.
09/12/20217925jdbcRemoved
  • Removed the IS_READONLY, IS_KEY, NUMERIC_PRECISION, and DECIMAL_DIGITS columns from DatabaseMetadata.GetColumns(), as they are not part of the JDBC Specification. This information is still available via other metadata calls.
09/02/20217915GeneralAdded
  • Added support for the STRING_SPLIT table-valued function in the CROSS APPLY clause.
08/07/20217889GeneralChanged
  • Added the KeySeq column to the sys_foreignkeys table.
08/06/20217888GeneralChanged
  • Added the new sys_primarykeys system table.
07/23/20217874GeneralChanged
  • Updated the Literal Function Names for relative date/datetime functions. Previously, relative date/datetime functions resolved to a different value when used in the projection as opposed to the predicate. For example: SELECT LAST_MONTH() AS lm, Col FROM Table WHERE Col > LAST_MONTH(). Formerly, the two LAST_MONTH() methods would resolve to different datetimes. Now, they will match.
  • As a replacement for the previous behavior, the relative date/datetime functions in the criteria may have an 'L' appended to them. For example: WHERE col > L_LAST_MONTH(). This will continue to resolve to the same values that were previously calculated in the criteria. Note that the "L_" prefix will only work in the predicate - it not available for the projection.
04/25/20217785GeneralAdded
  • Added support for handling client side formulas during insert / update. For example: UPDATE Table SET Col1 = CONCAT(Col1, " - ", Col2) WHERE Col2 LIKE 'A%'
04/23/20217783GeneralChanged
  • Updated how display sizes are determined for varchar primary key and foreign key columns so they will match the reported length of the column.
04/16/20217776GeneralAdded
  • Non-conditional updates between two columns is now available to all drivers. For example: UPDATE Table SET Col1=Col2
04/16/20217776GeneralChanged
  • Reduced the length to 255 for varchar primary key and foreign key columns.

Changed
  • Updated index naming convention to avoid duplicates.
04/16/20217776GeneralChanged
  • Updated implicit and metadata caching to improve performance and support for multiple connections. Old metadata caches are not compatible - you need to generate new metadata caches if you are currently using CacheMetadata.
04/15/20217775ServiceNowDeprecated
  • Deprecated Instance connection property.

Replacement
  • The URL connection property replaces the Instance connection property. The user should now set the base URL of the ServiceNow instance site, instead of the instance Id. For example: https://MyInstance12345.service-now.com.
04/13/20217773ServiceNowChanged
  • The OneLogin method we used previously has been deprecated by OneLogin. We have updated our design to use the latest version of the OneLogin API, which now requires a seperate OAuthClientId and OAuthClientSecret associated with your OneLogin app to be passed in through SSOProperties. The APIKey that was formerly passed in through SSOProperties for OneLogin is removed.
  • OneLogin also no longer uses SSOLoginURL. Instead, Subdomain and AppId should be specified inside the SSOProperties.
03/24/20217753ServiceNowDeprecated
  • Deprecated SSOUser, SSOPassword, SSOProvider, OktaAppEmbedLink and OKTAApiToken connection properties.

Replacements
  • User and Password replaces SSOUser and SSOPassword.
  • Authscheme replaces SSOProvider.
  • SSOLoginURL replaces OktaAppEmbedLink as it is more generic and applicable to other SSO providers.
  • ApiToken replaces OKTAApiToken as it is more generic and applicable to other SSO providers.
