[GB.DB]
* NEW: Connection: 'Create()' now has an optional 'Return' boolean argument
to tell if the 'Result.Update()' method will fill the Result with the
contents of the newly inserted record. It is based on the optional
'INSERT INTO ... RETURNING' SQL feature.
* NEW: Connection: The 'FullVersion' property now return the full version
string of the database server.
* NEW: Database drivers can tell if they do not support the 'RETURNING'
keyword.
* NEW: Database drivers now must provide the full version string of they
database server they connect to.
[CONFIGURATION]
* BUG: Do not use the default CFLAGS forces by autotools. Either use the CFLAGS provided on the command-line, or the default ones of the project.
[INTERPRETER]
* OPT: Don't use '-O3'. It makes benchmarks sometimes slower than using '-O2'.
[COMPILER]
* OPT: Optimize variable initialization.
[GB.DB]
* NEW: Connection: The URL argument of the Connection constructor is now handled by the Gambas part.
* NEW: Connection: It's now possible to specify the password in the connection URL.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Enhance 'GB.SubstStringAdd()' and add 'GB.SubstStringUnquote()' API to support custom quoting in 'gb.db'.
[GB.DB]
* NEW: Connection: Request substitution methods now support "[&1]" and "`&1`" quoting syntax to quote a table name or a column name.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Add an API to know if a native error has already been raised.
[GB.DB]
* NEW: The Result.Release() driver API now tells if the connection has been closed.
* NEW: Raise an error when retrieving the primary key fails, if the driver has not already raised it.
[GB.DB]
* BUG: Don't call the collation driver routine if the 'no_collation' flag is set by the database driver.
* BUG: Do not try to seek anywhere in the Result object if the 'no_seek' flag is set, even if the row count is positive.
* BUG: Result.Delete() never removes a row from the result set if its row count is negative (i.e. if it is forward-only).
[CONFIGURATION]
* NEW: Add man pages.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Use 'time_t' in GB.MakeDateFromTime API.
[WIKI CGI SCRIPT]
* NEW: Add a command-line option to print the package table.
* NEW: Add a driver API that handles debugging messages.
* NEW: Print the current date/time before any debugging message.
[GB.DB.MYSQL]
* NEW: Use the new driver API to print debugging messages.
[GB.DB.ODBC]
* NEW: Use the new driver API to print debugging messages.
[GB.DB.POSTGRESQL]
* NEW: Use the new driver API to print debugging messages.
[GB.DB.SQLITE2]
* NEW: Use the new driver API to print debugging messages.
[GB.DB.SQLITE3]
* NEW: Use the new driver API to print debugging messages.
[COMPILER]
* OPT: Some optimizations in symbol table routines.
* NEW: Emit column position in almost all error messages. It makes the compiler 2.5% slower, even with the optimizations.
[INTERPRETER]
* OPT: String routines are now compiled with -O3.
* NEW: Don't display JIT debugging message unless GB_JIT_DEBUG is set to something different from zero.
* NEW: String whose length is greater than 256 now have a growth step of 256 bytes instead of 16.
[GB.JIT]
* NEW: Do many global optimizations as now the class metadata is fully available.
* NEW: Support for optional argument. Still buggy at the moment.
[GB.DB]
* NEW: Connection.LastInsertId is a new property that returns the value of the serial field used in the last inserted row. It is supported on MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite3 only.
* BUG: Connection.Handle is correctly declared now.
[GB.DB.MYSQL]
* NEW: Support for Connection.LastInsertId.
[GB.DB.ODBC]
* NEW: Raise an error if Connection.LastInsertId is used.
[GB.DB.POSTGRESQL]
* NEW: Support for Connection.LastInsertId.
[GB.DB.SQLITE2]
* NEW: Raise an error if Connection.LastInsertId is used.
[GB.DB.SQLITE3]
* NEW: Support for Connection.LastInsertId.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: New API for reference a Gambas string.
[GB.DB]
* NEW: Result.GetAll() is a new method that returns an array of the values of a specific field from each record. It is about twice faster than the equivalent code written in Gambas.
[GB.DB]
* BUG: Correctly initialize Connection object from Connections collection when that connection has been switched between sqlite and non-sqlite type from the IDE.
* NEW: Switch version to 3.10.90.
[GB.DB]
* NEW: Connection.TimeZone is new property that will allow to define the default timezone of dates stored in the database we are connected to. Not implemented yet.

* BUG: Connection.ApplyTemplate() now correctly handles a collation whose name is "default" in the template file.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/gambas/trunk@7941 867c0c6c-44f3-4631-809d-bfa615b0a4ec
* NEW: Database connection: Now you can initialize a new database from the template of another connection of the project.
