APQ 3.0-b1 released

APQ 3.0-b1 released

[OgRo]

Hello everybody! :)


Just to announce the 3.0-b1 release for APQ. :)

it can be downloaded from:

http://adaworks.net/releases/apq-3.0-b1/


This is the first beta release since we took over APQ maintenance and
it features:
   . build system fully based on gpr files
   . each database driver has it's own folder
   . bug fixes
   . Under a new license :: MGPL (the same license for both closed and
open sourced projects)

Big thanks to
  Adèle Helena Ribeiro
  Adrian-Ken Rueegsegger
  Alex Abate Biral
  Jesse Lang
  Peter C. Chapin

Who have contributed to this release. And thanks also Warren W. Gay
who have made APQ a reality in the first place. We are just trying to
give our best to make this an even better database binding for Ada.


Go there, download, test and submit bug reports please! :)


For the curious ones, the plans for the next release includes:
  . ODBC support (it's already implemented but build system is broken
and doesn't support unixODBC yet)
  . handling data types by their primitives instead of string type

I forgot to mention:
  * Microsoft SQL Support in the new apq-ct_lib module
  * both apq-ct_lib and apq-sybase can be compiled against FreeTDS as
an alternative to Sybase's library.

sending them):

Big thanks to Jeffrey Carter for his patches and Warren's name is
Warrens W. Gray. :)

If you google 'apq warren gay' you'll find you were right the first
time (unless he's changed his name since?)
