  • 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.

  • 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.
04/23/20217783GeneralChanged
  • Updated how display sizes are determined for varchar primary key and foreign key columns so they will match the reported length of the column.
04/16/20217776GeneralChanged
  • 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.
12/29/20207668LinkedIn Marketing SolutionsAdded
  • Added support for refreshing the OAuth Access Token.
10/08/20207586LinkedIn Marketing SolutionsRemoved
  • Removed the deprecated columns TotalBudgetAmount, TotalBudgetCurrency amd TotalBudgetEndsAt from the Accounts view. All budget and run date information should be queried from the CampaignGroup view via the columns: TotalBudgetAmount, TotalBudgetCurrencyCode and ScheduleEndTime.
