I noted James is back from holiday :)
I won't be able to use computer for some time (I'll have an operation).
So it's time for me to sum up the situation. In the last two/three weeks
I applied some patches (mainly for ODBC) and did appropriate
updates/fixes.
There are still some issue to be fixes before 0.62 release
ODBC
- I didn't have time to fix prepared statement (see TODO note)
- now all types are accepted for binding (even sql type on application
side) and you can use --enable-extra-checks for test
- there are a lot of small TODO/FIXME in code...
tds - iconv stuff
I didn't change this stuff. There are still a lot FIXME in code. I noted
that someone (I think James) changed fixed characters set from
iso8859-1, utf8, ucs2le/be to iso885901, ascii, ucs2le/be. However this
is not correct (see tds_iconv_init). Some iconv implementations (like
HP/UX one) refuse to convert from single-byte to single-byte to
replacing iso8859-1 -> utf8 conversion with iso8859-1 -> ascii one just
fails. This was the reason I select these type; all implementation I
found have iso8859-1, utf8 and ucs2 and can convert iso8859-1 <-> utf8
and iso8859-1 <-> ucs2. Also for our purpose we can use iso8859-1
instead of ascii (cause it's just an extension).
