3New in this branch:
4
5 * Converted test cases to use SQL::Abstract::Test.
6 * that way the number of extra parens does not matter).
7
8 * Removed a wrong TODO test: 95sql_maker_quote.t/"order_by with quoting needs fixing (ash/castaway)"
9 * it never passed and never will (SQLA should not parse the strings in order_by)
10 * asked by mst
11
12 * Made a TODO test non-TODO: 95sql_maker_quote.t/"select attr with star needs fixing (mst/nate)"
13 * this works with SQLA 1.50
14
15 * Removed dead code from DBI::Class::Storage::DBI (sub _RowNumberOver).
16 * neither DBIC, nor SQLA, nor SQLA::Limit uses this (at least not the current versions)
17
18 * Added test cases for every supported order_by syntax.
19 * Made DBIC::SQL::Abstract pass on order_by hashref ({-desc => 'colname'}) to SQL::Abstract.
20 * this is the blessed way of doing order by
21 * new SQLA supports it
22 * formerly DBIC considered this as an error
23
24 * Bumped SQL::Abstract version dependency.
25 * the testcase changes broke compatibility with old SQLA
26
27 * Added test cases to test if arrayref bind values in insert/update are passed through sql_maker intact.
89479564 28 * Added test cases to test if arrayref bind values work with a PostgreSQL array type.
3578f8c6 29 * Added 'array_datatypes' parameter to the sql_maker constructor.
30 * formerly SQLA considered these as literal SQL with bind values, now that is \['literal SQL', @bind]
31 * the new syntax is consistent (works the same in insert/update and where conditions)
32 * fortunately 'array_datatypes' is simply ignored by old SQLA (at least with current version..)
89479564 33 * DBD::Pg can use arrayref bind values for PostgreSQL array types
