13 revision 1.80 2014-10-05
14 ----------------------------
15 - Fix erroneous behavior of is_literal_value($) wrt { -ident => ... }
16 - Explicitly croak on top-level special ops (they didn't work anyway)
18 revision 1.79 2014-09-25
19 ----------------------------

27 revision 1.78 2014-05-28

32 - Improve signatures/documentation of is_same_sql_bind / eq_sql_bind

46 - Deprecate and warn when supplying an empty arrayref to like/not_like
47 operators (likely to be removed before 2.0)
49 - Warn when using an inequality operator with a multi-value array to

250 Version 1.50 was a major internal refactoring of SQL::Abstract.
251 Great care has been taken to preserve the published behavior
252 documented in previous versions in the 1.* family; however,
253 some features that were previously undocumented, or behaved.
254 differently from the documentation, had to be changed in order
255 to clarify the semantics. Hence, client code that was relying
256 on some dark areas of SQL::Abstract v1.* might behave differently
259 ----------------------------
