This is a very major change from the current version (1.49), so if you are using DBD::Pg, it is highly recommended you test it out early and thoroughly, so we can iron out any problems before the final release. Among the major changes are: * Full support for arrays: Perl arrays are transformed to Postgres arrays automatically, and vice-versa. * Asynchronous queries, which let's you start a query, go off and do other things, and check back to see if it has finished, and fetch the data when you are ready to. This also allows you to cancel running queries. * The minimum supported version of Postgres is now 7.4. * Experimental support for bind_param_inout(). The complete list is in the Changes file: http://svn.perl.org/modules/DBD-Pg/trunk/Changes The tarball can be downloaded here: http://svn.perl.org/modules/DBD-Pg/trunk/DBD-Pg-2.0.0_1.tar.gz SHA1 for this file: ec9badc51a1a987215553e4e6fee0c0955cfa8b3 DBD-Pg-2.0.0_1.tar.gz Please direct any DBD-Pg specific responses, or any other questions or bug reports, to dbd-pg@perl.org. This version also implements three other major changes: * Moved from gborg to perl.org * Moved from cvs to subversion. * Moved from two-part to three-part version numbers. - -- Greg Sabino Mullane greg@turnstep.com End Point Corporation PGP Key: 0x14964AC8 200801152251 http://biglumber.com/x/web?pk=2529DF6AB8F79407E94445B4BC9B906714964AC8 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQFHjYTrvJuQZxSWSsgRA9MrAKCv9HjRfE8bPyBQnEYB1vJHTVNR+ACg4dng iddOoa9K4gOpMbXi1BPY5xc= =Ef/I -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
