Changes for version 0.64

  • ENHANCEMENTS:
  • Added potentially useful script, alzabo_to_ascii, in eg/ dir.
  • Ask for port when setting up tests.
  • Turn on stacktraces for all Alzabo::Exception objects.
  • Removed the deprecated "lookup_tables" option from Alzabo::MethodMaker.
  • Removed the deprecated next_row methods from the various cursor classes.
  • Removed the deprecated Alzabo::Runtime::Table->func method.
  • Major changes to how joins are done. It is now possible to mix together various sorts of outer joins in a single query. In addition, it is now possible to specify a foreign key that should be used when joining two tables.
  • The "tables" parameter has been renamed as "join".
  • The Alzabo::Create::Schema->right_outer_join and Alzabo::Create::Schema->left_outer_join methods have been removed. Use the ->join method instead, which can now be used to do outer joins as well, via:
    • $schema->join( join => [ left_outer_join => $foo, $bar ], ... )
  • The functionality of Alzabo::Runtime::OuterJoinCursor has been merged into Alzabo::Runtime::JoinCursor.
  • Alzabo::Exception::Driver->bind now returns an array reference, not an array.
  • BUG FIXES:
  • Fix failure to load schema objects from file when $\ is set to something like "\n". Reported by Brad Bowman.
  • Fixed Postgres reverse engineering to work with slightly changed system tables in 7.2.
  • Fix handling of table alterations for postgres. Temp tables were being created but not dropped and the data saved in the temp table was not being restored to the real table. Also, Alzabo was trying to create sequences again when altering tables Based mostly on a patch from Daniel Gaspani.
  • Fix handling of primary key changes for Postgres (I'm still not sure it's entirely correct).
  • Fix detection of primary key changes for schema diffs.
  • Handle NOT IN for where conditions.
