Change Log

Current Trunk

  • version statements added to all providers, so you just build with -version=dbi_mysql, -version=dbi_sqlite, etc
    • buildme.d build support will now be deprecated, use the -version=dbi_provider build syntax instead
  • DSSS support. To build the library for just sqlite, for example, just type:
    • dsss build -version=dbi_sqlite
    • sample dsss.conf included to build a library named 'dbi'
  • Tango logging added, for SQL tracing
    • If you want to see dbi log output, the easiest way is to just import the Configurator in your program, like so:
      • import tango.util.log.Configurator;

  • you can now foreach over the fields in a Row
  • Registry of service providers added, you can now get a database provider by URL, ala JDBC
