  • Changed the default method for submitting client_credentials grants with OAuth. Before client_credentials would submit OAuthClientId and OAuthClientSecret using the HTTP Authorization header. Now the OAuthPasswordGrantType controls this setting and it defaults to OAuthPasswordGrantType=Post. The previous behavior is still available by setting OAuthPasswordGrantType=Basic.
02/16/20228082ODataAdded
  • Added support to control whether the LIKE operator is sent server-side or processed client-side through the hidden connection property, SupportsLike. This is set by default to True, and when changed to False, the LIKE operator will be executed client-side.
09/21/20217934ODataChanged
  • Updated the stored procedures ListAssociations, CreateAssociation and RemoveAssociation to include UrlId (to bypass fromID) and ToUrlId (to bypass toID) in cases where the primary key consists of multiple attributes.
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.
06/07/20217828ADO.NETAdded
  • Added support for the DbCommand.CommandTimeout property.
05/29/20217819ADO.NETRemoved
  • Removed support for SSRS 2008.
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.
04/16/20217776ADO.NETChanged
  • Separated the ADO.NET Provider assembly and Entity Framework Core 5 Nuget packages.
  • Single precision floating point numbers are now reported as with the Data Type Name as "real". Double precision floating point numbers now have their Data Type Name reported as "float". This change does not impact the actual data types of these columns - only the reported data type name.
  • Separate EFCore 3.0, 3.1 and EFCore 5 dlls are now shipped with the driver. The 2.0 and 2.1 EFCore dlls are removed.
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.
04/15/20217775GeneralChanged
  • Kerberos authentication is updated to use TCP by default, but will fall back to UDP if a TCP connection cannot be established.
02/22/20217723ODataAdded
  • Added support for non-atomic batch operations. This behavior can be achieved by specifying the EnableAtomicBatchOperations connection property.
01/14/20217684ODataAdded

01/12/20217682ODataAdded

  • Added support for listing stored procedures which return collection of entities as views.
11/10/20207619ODataAdded
