1 Revision history for SQL::Abstract
3 - *UPCOMING INCOMPATIBLE BUGFIX*: SQLA used to generate incorrect SQL
4 on undef-containing lists fed to -in and -not_in. An exception will
5 be raised for a while before properly fixing this, to avoid quiet
6 but subtle changes to query results in production
7 - Deprecate and warn when supplying an empty arrayref to like/not_like
8 operators (likely to be removed before 2.0)
10 - Warn when using an inequality operator with a multi-value array to
11 arrive at what amounts to a 1=1 condition (no pre-2.0 plans to fix
12 this behavior due to backwards comp concerns)
13 - Fix false negative comparison of ORDER BY <function> ASC
14 - More improvements of incorrect parsing (literal at end of list elt)
15 - Fix typos in POD and comments (RT#87776)
16 - Augment -not_bool example with nesting (RT#89601)
18 revision 1.74 2013-06-04
19 ----------------------------
20 - Fix insufficient parenthesis unroll during operator comparison
21 - 'ORDER BY foo' and 'ORDER BY foo ASC' are now considered equal
22 by default (with a switch to reenable old behavior when necessary)
23 - Change parser to not eagerly slurp RHS expressions it doesn't recognize
25 revision 1.73 2012-07-10
26 ----------------------------
27 - Fix parsing of ORDER BY foo + ?
28 - Stop filling in placeholders in `format-sql` since it does not support
29 passing values for them anyway
30 - Fix parsing of NOT EXISTS
31 - Fix over-eager parenthesis unrolling
32 - Fix deep recursion warnings while parsing obnoxiously long sql statements
33 - Fix incorrect comparison of malformed lists

210 Version 1.50 was a major internal refactoring of SQL::Abstract.
211 Great care has been taken to preserve the published behavior
212 documented in previous versions in the 1.* family; however,
213 some features that were previously undocumented, or behaved.
214 differently from the documentation, had to be changed in order
215 to clarify the semantics. Hence, client code that was relying
216 on some dark areas of SQL::Abstract v1.* might behave differently
219 ----------------------------

244 - fixed semantics of _bindtype on array args
245 - dropped the _anoncopy of the %where tree. No longer necessary.
246 - dropped the _modlogic function
