eGenix mxODBC Distribution 3.0.1 GA

Introduction

The eGenix mxODBC Distribution is an add-on distribution for our eGenix mx Base Distribution.

It comes with mxODBC, our universal ODBC database interface for Python.

News

mxODBC 3.0.1 is a patch-level release and includes the following updates:

Enhanced SQL Server ODBC driver support:

• work-around for using Unicode parameters together with cursor.executedirect()
• bug-fix for cursor.stringformat setting when used with cursor.executedirect()
• improved compatibility by using non-padding character binding codes

Documentation:

• added more documentation and an example of how to use the new connection and cursor error handlers.
  
  Error handlers were introduced in mxODBC 3.0.0 and allow for much greater control over how low-level errors in the interface are to be dealt with.

For the full set of changes please check the mxODBC change log.

Upgrading

You are encouraged to upgrade to this latest mxODBC release, especially if you are using MS SQL Server as database server.

Customers who have purchased mxODBC 3.0 licenses can download and install this patch-level release on top of their existing installations. The licenses will continue to work with version 3.0.1.

Users of mxODBC 2.0 will have to purchase new licenses from our online shop in order to upgrade to mxODBC 3.0.1.

You can request 30-day evaluation licenses by writing to sales@egenix.com, stating your name (or the name of the company) and the number of eval licenses that you need. We will then issue you licenses and send them to you by email. Please make sure that you can receive ZIP file attachments on the email you specify in the request, since the license files are send out as ZIP attachments.

Downloads

Please visit the eGenix mxODBC Distribution page for downloads, instructions on installation and documentation of the packages.

Note that in order to use the eGenix mxODBC Distribution you need to install the eGenix mx Base Distribution first.
