This release is compatible with Oracle's Instant Client, which has a much smaller footprint than the standard client and allows connections to be specified more conveniently. Also, the size of the hda was increased for compatibility with 64-bit platforms.
Support was added for Microsoft SQL and Sybase.
Options to disable building static or shared
versions of the library were added. A bug in
sdb_close was fixed.
If the URL in sdb_query refers to an already opened connection, the library now checks that the connection is in fact opened. This is important for mistyped URLs.
