Name : python-pymssql
Product : Fedora 30
Version : 2.1.4
Release : 1.fc30
URL : http://pymssql.org/
Summary : DB-API interface to Microsoft SQL Server
Description :
A simple database interface for Python that builds on top of FreeTDS to provide
a Python DB-API (PEP-249) interface to Microsoft SQL Server.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
General ------- - Allow linkage against FreeTDS (by dropping usage of
deprecated ``DBVERSION_80`` symbol.) (GH-432) - Stop using 7.1 as default
value for the TDS protocol version used in connections. This is a backward
incompatible change and affects connections using both `pymssql` and `_mssql`.
Now you need to specify a TDS protocol version explicitly by using any of the
supported mechanisms (in descending order of precedence): * Using the
``tds_version`` paramenter of ``pymssql.connect()`` and ``_mssql.connect()``
* A ``TDSVER`` enviromnent variable (see FreeTDS documentation) * A
``freetds.conf`` file (see FreeTDS documentation) - Drop support for versions
of FreeTDS older than 0.91. - Accept 7.3 as TDS protocol version when
establishing a connection. - Add Python 3.7 support - Drop Python 3.3 support
Features -------- - Support for new in SQL Server 2008 ``DATE``, ``TIME`` and
``DATETIME2`` data types (GH-156). The following conditions need to be
additionally met so values of these column types can be returned from the
database as their native corresponding Python data types instead of as
strings: * Underlying FreeTDS must be 0.95 or newer. * TDS protocol version
in use must be 7.3 or newer. Thanks Ed Avis for the implementation. (GH-331)
Bug fixes --------- - Finish implementation of TDS protocol version 7.3 support
by actually accepting ``"7.3"`` as TDS protocol version when establishing a
connection. (GH-455) - Fixed and expanded Python data types that can be used
to pass ``VARBINARY``, ``BINARY`` and ``IMAGE`` SQL Server Stored Procedures
input parameters. (GH-425). Thanks Bill Adams for the fix. - Fix
``tds_version`` ``_mssql`` connection property value for TDS version. 7.1 is
actually 7.1 and not 8.0.
